  Treasures of NeoExodus:
  Claw of Xon
  Over the course of the Twilight War, the Reis Confederacy 
  committed many atrocities; chief among them was the 
  employment of the necromancer Xon. His undead legions 
  and horrific experiments served the Confederacy well, as 
  he developed a powerful weapon for his reanimated 
  troops. This weapon’s dark origins were steeped in 
  blood; foul necromantic rituals gave it the power 
  to tear forth the souls of men, turning them into 
  ghostly specters that hungered for the living. Xon 
  gifted these weapons to his most trusted servants 
  and powerful creations so that they might spread his 
  evil influence across the battlefield, drowning out the 
  sound of clashing steel and cannon fire with a wailing 
  choir of tortured souls. 
  HISTORY
  During the days of the Twilight War the Confederacy sought 
  to augment its forces by employing the necromancer Xon. 
  For years his undead horrors supplemented Confederacy 
  troops on the battlefield crushing their enemies with 
  unholy fervor. After each battle Xon’s forces grew as he 
  raised dead soldiers to join his shambling horde. Xon 
  cultivated this new army and installed a powerful grave 
  knight as the army’s general. Then, testing a new process 
  using his disturbing necromantic magic, he extracted the 
  iron from the blood of hundreds of slaves and prisoners 
  to forge a new weapon for his new general, befitting his 
  power. Weaving even darker and fouler magic into this 
  weapon he imparted it the power to not just tear flesh 
  and pulp bone, but also rend the very soul from a body to 
  serve the weapon’s wielder before passing on. Placed in 
  the hands of his grave knight general this weapon struck 
  resolve-shattering fear into the hearts of all who beheld 
  it, including his allies within the Confederacy. On the 
  battlefield Xon’s general felled men by the dozens, tearing 
  the souls from their ragged bleeding bodies to stand at his 
  side and strike down the men they once called allies. As the 
  success of his design became apparent, Xon began crafting 
  more of these unholy weapons to outfit his undead forces. 
  Soon a tidal wave of ghastly spirits flowed over Xon’s 
  enemies, leaving a desiccated field of withered husks 
  behind them. When the leaders of the Confederacy were 
  informed of Xon’s horrific methods, they decided that 
  he must be dealt with before his undead legions grew so 
  large that the Confederacy could not hope to contain them. 
  With this decision made, the Confederacy descended upon 
  Xon’s army in full force, and the conflict was short but 
  dreadfully bloody. After the 
  battle, soldiers gathered the 
  terrible weapons to destroy 
  them. However, some were

  CLAW OF XON
  left behind or stolen by corrupt Confederacy agents for 
  personal use. Since that day these weapons have been 
  used to devastating effect in the hands of powerful 
  necromancers, anti-paladins, and others. Many religious 
  factions seek to destroy these weapons so that they may 
  never again taint the souls of good men.
  DESCRIPTION AND CONSTRUCTION
  A Claw of Xon is a terrifying weapon to behold. The 
  weapon’s grip is a plain iron chain flecked with blood and 
  ending in a large metal loop. The head is a smooth and 
  heavy iron ball with four-inch spikes jutting out at regular 
  intervals. A trio of wailing ghostly figures swirl and dance 
  about the head, casting a pale green light 
  over the entire weapon.

  NEW SPECIAL MATERIAL
  BLOOD IRON
  Using dark rituals and foul magic, necromancers have 
  developed a technique of drawing forth the iron in a 
  creature’s blood to be used in constructing potent weapons. 
  This despicable process taints and strengthens the iron 
  making it suitable for the creation of necromantic items. If 
  an attack with a weapon made of blood iron hits a target 
  suffering from a bleed condition, that creature takes 1 
  additional point of damage from the attack as the weapon 
  drains blood from the wound. When this effect triggers, 
  the weapon also repairs 1 point of damage it has sustained. 
  A creature that takes this extra damage more than once in 
  a round must make a DC 12 Fortitude save (+1 DC per 
  point of bonus damage beyond the first dealt that round) 
  or be sickened for one minute. The wielder of the weapon 
  can choose to inflict 1 point of Constitution damage to 
  themself to repair up to 10 points of damage that the 
  weapon has sustained. Items without metal parts cannot be 
  made from blood iron. For example an arrow can be made 
  of blood iron, but a quarterstaff cannot.
  Blood Iron has the same hp and hardness as steel.
  Blood Iron weapons are always masterwork, which is 
  included in the material price.
