Item - Crystal Claw
🕑 Added 2025-03-14 08:34:13 +0000 UTCCrystal Claw
Wondours item, rare (require attunement)
Forged by the Elementalists of the Chamber Deep, this gauntlet was crafted from raw Titanstone and lahanite, both infused with the same extraplanar energy that gives Titanstone its formidable properties. Incredibly durable, it grants its wearer earth-shaping abilities akin to those of the Geomancers, allowing them to manipulate earthen materials by touch and encase their weapon in a crystalline layer that amplifies their strikes. While primarily designed as a gauntlet, it also serves as a prosthetic, seamlessly integrating with the user’s energy circuits to function as a natural extension of their body. This artifact is especially vital to the Keepers of the Chamber Deep in their battles against the Deadnaught, enabling them to strike these aberrations without falling victim to their flesh-warping affliction.
—-------------------------
This gauntlet can function as a prosthetic which, upon attunement, can function and move as the user's own limb. You gain a +1 bonus to AC. Additionally, your unarmed strikes made with this gauntlet deal 1d8 bludgeoning damage instead of the normal damage for an unarmed strike.
Earthen Touch. While attuned to this gauntlet, you can carve and shape nonmagical dirt, sand, or stone no larger than one cubic foot, forming it into a simple object, weapon, structure, or tool over the course of 1 minute. The creation lasts for 1 hour before crumbling. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Crystalline Armament. As a bonus action, you can spend one or more Hit Dice, up to half your proficiency bonus (rounded down), to cause the Titanstone's crystals to grow and envelop a weapon you are holding. Until the start of your next turn, your weapon attacks deal an additional 1d6 bludgeoning or piercing damage per Hit Die spent as crystalline spikes reinforce your strikes.

when the opportunity comes, I will. It just that often it depend on the spontaneous inspiration that struck me, so what I make often either quite random or affected by a chit chat in our discord server XD

Your creations are truly unique! Though, can't help but wonder... Are you planning to make smol items like rings, pendants, diadems etc?
Sinlaire
Oh unfortunately, no, that is just the name of the feature XD although technically, there are a set of items all made from Titanstone and have the earth and crystal theme in the vault already: - Crystal Claw - Tectonic Tusk (Sword/lance) - Earthen Embrace (Shield)

Noticed this was counted as a “Crystalline Armaments”, sounds like it will be similar to the item set you’ve made before, the “Arthropod Armaments”, is that correct?
Sinlaire
Thank you for the kind words :D I'm honored to be able to inspire you and I hope I can keep producing more art that can inspire you for the foreseeable future :D

Just wanted to say thanks for all the amazing art, it really helped inspire me and i look forward to seeing all the other wonderful things you create!
Sinlaire

Sinlaire
"who (unbeknownst to them) are going to most likely need them soon…" that's such an ominous statement XD XD
Kevin Foote
I wholeheartedly love all the prosthetic options you make! It really is going to give options to players in my game who (unbeknownst to them) are going to most likely need them soon…

Another perfect piece from madam sinlaire
Sinlaire
Yup, I think this gonna be something that you'll pump when you have some advantage or desperate XD

Missed the 1 round. But it would be good to use on a sleeping/paralyzed enemy, cuz funny big numbers
Sinlaire
I actually looking at that creature as a reference XD
Sinlaire
Oh, only up to half your proficiency bonus though (max 3d6 at higher level), and only for 1 round~
Connor Finnan
I was reading along, thinking it was pretty simple. Until I saw the additional d6 per hit die spent, and it got scary. Fishing for crits would be scary with it

wow, this looks really cool! It reminds me of Diamondhead from Ben 10
