Sir Varion's Lance (Patreon)

Weapon (lance), uncommon (requires attunement)

This weighty lance was originally designed for Sir Varion, a brave knight with a famous disregard for horses. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. This weapon has the heavy property, but is uniquely balanced to function well in close-quarters combat. Attacking a target within 5 feet of you with this weapon doesn't impose disadvantage on the attack roll.

If you are attuned to Sir Varion's shield, you can wield this weapon with one hand, instead of two, while also holding the shield.

"Dearest Princess,
I will come with great haste to your aid. No creature of any color, size, shape, origin, language, age... (the list continues with several repeated options over the next few lines) ...or orientation will stop me from saving you from its malicious clutches. Rest assured, my Lady, your hero is coming as quickly as my legs can carry me!
Stay strong, Princess Wingwumms. May the fresh tide grace your skin.
—Sir Varion
Postscript: Do tell the dragon, won't you? I eagerly await our dramatic encounter when I find you and its dastardly lair!"
