![Rock Candy
ITEM 4
Consumable, Magical
Price 19 gp
Usage held in 1 hand
Activate [2] (manipulate)
A common confection to many, rock candy has come to mean crystallized sugar that has been bound to a common wooden dowel. Initially meant for consumption by wide-eyed children, it has become a treat that many enjoy well into adulthood. This rock candy though has an odd appearance, instead of the typical brightly colored sugar crystals, the surface is covered in granite-like rocks that look as though they would be difficult to bite through. Regardless of this appearance, the candy is sweet to the tongue and is able to be consumed just as easily as its non-magical cohorts.
When activated, your skin tightens and hardens, turning a dark grey color. You gain resistance 5 to physical damage except adamantine for the next 20 minutes. Each time you are hit by a bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing attack, this effect’s duration decreases by 1 minute. Additionally, while this effect is active, you gain a +1 circumstance bonus to Hide actions made to conceal yourself amongst stone and rocks.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pb7cm7pnmngs2wlas6ug5jqf/bafkreia3bt7lkkscxhl5ofzukj4stk26booe6b5dws7kzqxugnemouyaoq@jpeg)

Oh my, you can turn off that stupid rude tag.
If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations!
His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind.
It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

ITEM 11
Rare, Magical
Price 1,333 gp
Usage held in 1 hand; Bulk 1
This peculiar +2 flaming striking mace is made from the well laid bricks of an old chimney that have been ripped from their usual emplacement and fashioned to a cage and soot covered wooden handle. The end of this odd chimney structure constantly belches a blackened smoke that dissipates almost immediately upon exiting the weapon. The pommel of this mace resembles a small roofed cottage, perhaps a reference to where the bricks themselves were pulled from.
Activate [1] envision; Effect You picture a raging flame or a snuffed out campfire causing the weapon to either start to or stop emitting bright light in a 20-foot radius (and dim light to the next 20 feet).
Activate [3] manipulate; Frequency Twice per day; Effect You wave this mace in the air causing thick, black smoke to spew from it. The mace then casts incendiary fog (DC 28 Reflex save) on an area of your choosing within range of the spell.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pb7cm7pnmngs2wlas6ug5jqf/bafkreibqsul4egizj7rtoras2mh3lexs6wln3nzo5ljwduruqppjjszzqu@jpeg)

We’re in a recession and people don’t know when they’re gonna eat next, nobody can afford fun things because the economy is crumbling. It’s going to be hard a while.

🔥 The magic that roils inside as Primeval Source is more than a spring of elemental power or the capacity of transforming the element it rules, but it can also impart its elemental nature. Everember does so almost unprompted, setting those that touch its flames ablaze.
