Hello
I am currently running the Princes of the Apocalypse campaign with my regular group. One of the players is a flail-wielding Paladin with the Murderer hook. The murderer also took his mentors flail, and the player/character of course wants it back. I'm estimating he gets it back between level 9-11. Here's what I have made for him so far:
Flail of Reckoning
Magic weapon, very rare (requires attunement by a good-aligned paladin or cleric)
Originally crafted for a general in the demon army that invaded
Weapon die: 1d10 bludgeoning
Created to inflict as much pain as possible, this weapon deals critical damage on 19-20.
The mere impact of this weapon gives the wielder advantage on attempts to disarm an opponent.
Blessings of Tyr
This weapon, having been blessed by Tyr, have 4 charges that recharge each day at dawn.
Whenever you use a spell slot to deal smite damage, you can expend 1 charge to make the flail flare with a bright light and deal an additional 3d8 radiant damage. Additionally, the target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or be blinded until the end of your next turn.
While holding it, you can use an action to spend 1 charge to invoke the Benevolence of Tyr or 1 charge to incur the Wrath of Tyr. Once you have used one of theses abilities, neither can be used again until the next dawn.
Benevolence of Tyr: Healing energy radiates from you in an aura with a 30-foot radius. Until the spell ends (1 minute), the aura moves with you, centered on you. You can use a bonus action to cause one creature in the aura (including you) to regain 3d8+spellcasting modifier hit points.
Wrath of tyr: A vertical column of divine fire roars down from the heavens in a location you specify. Each creature in a 20-foot radius, 40-foot-high cylinder centered on a point within range must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 10d6 radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
I don't want to give him something that's severely OP, but even less I want to give him something underpowered.. Any feeedback will be greatly appreciated.
