[Dark Carnival] Harlequin’s Mighty Mallet (Patreon)

Harlequin’s Mighty Mallet

Weapon (maul or warhammer), rare

Component: plant bark

People falling over is funny, and the Dark Carnival refuses to recognise this as anything but objective fact. For that reason, they have weaponised this schadenfreude into a colourful wooden mallet which helps them truly put the “laughter” in “slaughter”.

This weapon has 3 charges and regains all expended charges daily at dawn.

Slapstick. When you hit a creature with an attack using this weapon, you can expend 1 charge to force it to make a DC 15 Strength saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is knocked prone in a comedic or embarrassing manner, and you can immediately cast hideous laughter (no action required, save DC 15) on another creature.

---------------------------------------

Uncommon variant: Reduce the DCs to 13. Remove all charges. The Slapstick property doesn’t require a charge to use, and once it’s been used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.

Very rare variant: Increase the DCs to 16. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.
