Item

Necropipe

Created by Lovelace

This haunting smoking pipe is carved from blackened wood in the grotesque shape of a skull, its hollow eye sockets serving as the bowl for tobacco or other smokable substances. The pipe once belonged to a tyrannical king known for his ruthlessness and constant indulgence, who carried it with him through countless campaigns and court intrigues. When treachery claimed the monarch's life, his obsession with the artifact proved so profound that he clawed his way back from death itself, ascending as a lich while his beloved pipe crumbled into the grave beside him. The Necropipe now radiates an unmistakable aura of death magic, its surface etched with arcane runes that glow with a sickly green luminescence when activated. Spellcasters of dark persuasion prize this item as a focus for necromantic magic, allowing them to channel death magic with greater potency and precision. Smoke drawn from the Necropipe carries the faint scent of grave soil and ash, and those who inhale it report visions of their own mortality. The pipe serves as a conduit between the material world and the domain of the dead, making it invaluable to warlocks and wizards who commune with undead entities. Legends suggest that the original lich king still maintains a connection to the Necropipe, watching through its empty sockets for those worthy of his attention.
