This oddly shaped battleaxe was created by the ancient frog god Umha as a reward for one of his most powerful frogman champions. The axe is forged from a strange greenish metal which is lighter than steel and is resistant to all corrosive forces. The axe imparts supernatural jumping abilities on the wielder, allowing them to leap a distance equal to their normal movement (30' for humans and Elves, 20' for dwarves and halflings). In combat the axe acts as a +2 magical weapon doing 1d10+2 damage. If the wielder scores a critical hit with the axe, the critical hit is rolled normally, but there is a chance that the axe will inflict additional mutilation to the victim. Roll on the Additional Mutilation Table below:
Additional Mutilation Table:
d% roll Effect
1-40 None
41-45 Right Hand Severed
46-50 Left Hand Severed
51-55 Right Foot Severed
56-60 Left Foot Severed
61-65 Right Leg Severed
66-70 Left Leg Severed
71-75 Right Arm Severed
76-80 Left Arm Severed
81-85 Right Ear Severed
86-90 Left Ear Severed
91-95 Nose Cut Off
96-00 Genitals Severed (if applicable) otherwise treat as None
As with many magic items created by the ancient gods, this one comes with a price. Each time the axe inflicts an additional mutilation (any effect other than None), there is a chance the the frog god Umha will notice the wielder of the axe and grant him or her a "blessing". Roll on the Blessings of Umha Table below:
Blessings of Umha Table:
d% roll Effect*
1-95 Umha does not notice. No effect
96 Wielder's legs are transformed into the rear legs of a frog
97 Wielder's left arm is transformed into the forearm of a frog
98 Wielder's right arm is transformed into the forearm of a frog
99 Wielder's body is transformed into the body of a frog
00 Wielder's head is transformed into the head of a frog (normal speech not possible)
* All transformations are proportional in size to the victim's original size.
