{"name":"Greed's Finger","item_type":"Weapon","rarity":"Legendary","price":"","weight":"","properties":"The Greed's Finger possesses the following properties:\r\n\r\n[h4]Golden Wound:[\/h4] \r\nWhen you deal damage to a creature with this dagger, the blood from the wound transforms into molten gold. The target takes an additional 2d6 fire damage as the molten gold cauterizes the wound.\r\n\r\n[h4]Golden Scars:[\/h4] \r\nCreatures struck by this dagger bear permanent golden scars where they were wounded. These scars can only be healed by Greater Restoration or divine intervention. This mark identifies them as having crossed paths with Greed\u2019s Finger, which may have future narrative consequences.\r\n\r\n[h4]Harvested Gold:[\/h4] \r\nOnce per long rest, you can harvest the molten gold from a slain creature. This creates 1d6 x 10 gp worth of raw, unrefined gold. Harvesting requires 1 minute, and only humanoids or creatures with blood can be harvested.\r\n\r\n[h4]Aura of Greed:[\/h4] \r\nWhile attuned to this dagger, you exude an aura of greed within 10 feet. Any creature within this range that can see the dagger must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or become envious of the weapon. While envious, the creature has disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you, as its attention is drawn to the dagger. The effect lasts until the creature takes damage or succeeds on another saving throw at the end of its turn.\r\n\r\n[h4]Insatiable Cut:[\/h4] \r\nWhen you score a critical hit with this dagger, molten gold seeps into the target's veins. The target must succeed on a DC 20 Constitution saving throw or become paralyzed until the end of your next turn.\r\n\r\n[h4]Gold Hoarder's Curse:[\/h4] \r\nWhen you reduce a creature to 0 hit points with this weapon, you gain temporary hit points equal to the fire damage dealt. However, each time this ability is triggered, you must succeed on a DC 16 Wisdom saving throw or become consumed by an overwhelming need to hoard wealth. While under this effect, you cannot willingly give away, trade, or spend any gold, coins, or treasure until you complete a long rest.\r\n\r\n[h1]Enhanced Properties (Post-Attunement)[\/h1]\r\nUpon full attunement, the Greed's Finger grows in power, reflecting the wielder\u2019s bond with Envarus.\r\n\r\n[h4]Touch of Midas:[\/h4] \r\nEach attack with the dagger now deals an additional 4d6 fire damage instead of 2d6. Additionally, Golden Wound now causes enemies to take an additional 2d10 fire damage at the start of each of their turns until they receive magical healing.\r\n\r\n[h4]Glint of Greed:[\/h4] \r\nThe aura of greed becomes stronger. Creatures affected by the Aura of Greed are now also charmed by the wielder of the dagger until the effect ends. Creatures that fail the saving throw are compelled to guard, protect, or even steal the dagger from others.\r\n\r\n[h4]Cursed Gold:[\/h4] \r\nWhen you activate Harvested Gold, the raw gold increases to 2d10 x 10 gp instead of 1d6 x 10 gp. This gold is cursed with faint whispers of Envarus's greed. Any non-attuned creature who touches this gold must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or be overcome with a compulsion to keep it at all costs.\r\n\r\n[h4]Supreme Insatiable Cut:[\/h4] \r\nThe paralysis effect caused by a critical hit from the dagger now lasts for 1 minute. The paralyzed creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.\r\n\r\n[h2]Special Ability - Midas Strike[\/h2]\r\nOnce per long rest, you can invoke Midas Strike, channeling the full power of Greed's Finger.\r\n\r\n[b]Activation: [\/b]As an action, you make a melee attack against a creature.\r\n[b]Effect:[\/b]\r\n[ul][li]On a hit, the creature's blood fully transforms into molten gold, causing them to take 10d10 fire damage.[\/li][\/ul]\r\n[ul][li]If this damage reduces the creature to 0 hit points, their body becomes a solid statue of gold, worth 1d10 x 1,000 gp.[\/li][\/ul]\r\n[ul][li]If the creature survives, they are cursed with an affliction called Golden Blood, which causes them to take 2d10 fire damage at the start of each of their turns until removed by Remove Curse or Greater Restoration.[\/li][\/ul]\r\n\r\n[h1]Curses[\/h1]\r\n\r\n[h4]Burden of Wealth: [\/h4]\r\nEach dawn, you must make a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save:\r\n\r\n[ul][li]You suffer disadvantage on all Charisma-based checks unless they involve acquiring, bargaining for, or discussing treasure.[\/li][\/ul]\r\n[ul][li]If you do not acquire at least 100 gp worth of treasure in a day, you take 3d6 psychic damage, as whispers of Envarus fill your mind.[\/li][\/ul]\r\n\r\n[h4]Molten Envy:[\/h4] \r\nThe longer you stay attuned to Greed's Finger, the more it twists your body. After 30 days of attunement, your veins turn molten gold, and your body begins to take on a gilded sheen.\r\n\r\n[ul][li]Every 10 days after this point, your maximum hit points decrease by 10.[\/li][\/ul]\r\n[ul][li]The only way to lift this curse is through divine intervention or by severing the bond with Envarus.[\/li][\/ul]","description":"The Greed's Finger is a slender, jagged dagger with a blade of gleaming gold that unnaturally shimmers in even the faintest light. Its hilt is wrapped in green, scaled leather, and its pommel bears a sparkling emerald carved into the face of a sneering goblin. The craftsmanship is flawless, and the gold of the blade seems to hum with a soft metallic chime, luring the hearts of even the most disciplined of warriors.\r\n\r\nThis dagger was forged by Envarus, the God of Greed, Envy, Inspiration, and Goblins, as a vessel of avarice and obsession. It is a symbol of greed's unrelenting power \u2014 seductive, treacherous, and ultimately self-destructive. To wield it is to court great fortune and great ruin. As gold consumes blood, so too does greed consume the soul.","armor_class":"","strength_requirement":"","weapon_subtype":"Simple Melee","weapon_damage":"2d4 + STR or DEX+PROF+3","weapon_secondary_damage":"2d6 fire","weapon_damage_type":"Piercing","weapon_range":"5 ft","attunement":"The Bath of Kings","source":"","image_gallery_id":"","tags":"Artifact, Envarus","templateId":"2999","blockId":"1645483","world":"4e631094-0c86-4f24-a3fd-23a77d4c1caa","folder":"8d32069a-735a-401d-9469-2de34e6474b9","isShared":"on"}
