Gorgon's Curse

Created by DARKoACE

Name: Gorgon's Curse Description: Gorgon's Curse is a pair of twin daggers crafted by the legendary dwarven blacksmiths specifically for the renowned rogue, Richard Elwood. The blades are infused with a potent poison that, when injected into a target, will slowly turn them to stone if not treated promptly. The poison is derived from the venom of a Gorgon, a fearsome creature with the power to petrify its victims. The only known antidote to Gorgon's Curse poison is a rare crystal found deep within the 'Crystal Caverns', guarded by the descendants of Medusa and her sisters. These crystals possess powerful restorative properties that can reverse the effects of the poison and free the victim from their stone-like state. When wielded by Richard Elwood, Gorgon's Curse becomes a formidable weapon in his arsenal, capable of immobilizing foes and turning the tide of battle in his favor. The daggers are etched with intricate designs representing the Gorgon's gaze, serving as a warning to any who dare to cross paths with their deadly power.

Effects

crystal restoration

The only known antidote to Gorgon's Curse poison is a rare crystal found deep within the 'Crystal Caverns', guarded by the descendants of Medusa and her sisters. Using this crystal as an action, the petrification effect of Gorgon's Curse can be reversed, restoring the victim to their normal state.

gorgon's venom

On a successful hit, the target must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned. At the start of each of the target's turns, it takes 2d6 poison damage. If the target fails the saving throw by 5 or more, it is restrained and begins to turn to stone.
