2025 May 3: The Spear of Hesht
Blessed by the minor goddess of sleep, Hesht, this bronze-tipped spear is balanced by a small bit of bronze wrapped around the end of the shaft, almost like a pommel. This gives the spear better balance, allowing the wielder to grab it farther back, effectively lengthening its reach when wielded in one hand.
The enchantment on the spear makes it so that people stabbed with it once become groggy and sluggish, then they fall asleep after the second stab. If one is stabbed for a third time, they never wake up, their bodies preserved in eternal slumber. The stabs need to draw blood to count.
The spear is currently in the possession of Old Man Death, after an overconfident youth called Bran the Half-Shaft tried to hunt him with it and got incinerated for his trouble. His father would pay good money to anyone who would recover the charred remains of his son.
