TEXT: Treasures of NeoExodus: 
  EUHUDI’S SACRIFICIAL KNIVES
  1
  In the ancient Wyldlands of Bal, a savage people worshiped 
  their terrible god through bloody human sacrifices. Here, 
  the Brotherhood of Khayne survived for centuries, both in 
  the jungles and in the city-state Xehitoch.  It wasn’t until 
  the height of Euhudi’s time as high priestess that the rest 
  of the world would come to know just how bloody their 
  handprint on society would be…
  HISToRy
  From 390 BU until her capture by Darai’s Naphil army 
  in 380 BU, Euhudi served as the last and greatest high 
  priestess of the Brotherhood of Khayne.  It was her duty to 
  ensure that the followers of Khayne, the bloodthirsty god 
  of murder and chaos, showed their respect and duty to him. 
  Atop the sacramental pyramid, she would perform her 
  rituals and the blood of the sacrifices would stream from 
  the altar down to bathe the stones of Khayne’s temple.
  As a high priestess, she would perform her rituals with 
  exacting detail: from the cleansing of her body; to the 
  robes she wore; to the methods she used to open the 
  sacrifices tied to Khayne’s altar.  It is said that her ritual 
  always used the same set of knives on the bodies of those 
  chosen to be sacrificed.
  Legend has it, that one night early in her time as high 
  priestess, a vision of mystic runes came to her in a dream.  
  She found an iron worker in Xehitoch who carved in 
  these runes in her ritual blades.  Though there was never 
  a translation of the symbols made by outsiders, but it is 
  said that they are a pact between Euhudi and Khayne for 
  protection of her as long as she never gave up her faith.
  Years of sacrifices set dried blood into the ridges of the 
  symbols, which was said to be a link to the blood magic of 
  the priestess and her god.  The blades were never purified 
  or cleaned after the symbols were carved, and yet they 
  never lost their sharpness.
  When Euhudi was captured in the battle between Naphil 
  and Baargon in 380 BU, she was brought to Naphil with 
  only her personal belongings.  Her knives were hidden 
  in her cloak, and only when she started to implement her 
  practices within the Naphil priesthood did anyone ever see 
  them again.
  The only written evidence of their existence is in the form 
  of a scroll dated around 365 BU that has been preserved 
  in the tome The Bloody Brotherhood: A History, written 
  by Hinric Shanteen (20 BU 
  - 57 AU), a historical tribune 
  turned scholar at the famous 
  Sihr Academy. Though much 
  TREASURES oF NEoExoDUS:
  EUHUDI’S SACRIFICIAL KNIVES
  of the original scroll was burned in a fire during the 
  conflict with the Reis Confederacy, the paper contains a 
  fragmentary journal entry from a young unnamed priest 
  from Naphil that mentions the knives in a ceremony:
  “… I did not believe my eyes at first, but as the Queen 
  held up the first blade into the air and spoke the words to 
  praise her god for our triumph in battle, it seemed as if the 
  moonlight brought a glow to the red blood.  I know not if 
  this was just an illusion, but in that moment, I felt as if I 
  was in the presence of my god and heard promises of glory 
  and conquest beyond my dreams whispered into my ear.  I 
  knew then that this was my path, and I would…”
  Many believed the knives followed their owner into 
  the unknown when she disappeared, but in 263 BU, a 
  group of Covenant missionaries were sacrificed in a city 
  of the Reis Confederacy, triggering a war between the 
  Confederacy and the Caneus Empire.  No one identified 
  exactly the group that performed the sacrifices, but one of 
  the exsanguinated bodies had the symbols from the lost 
  knives carved into its flesh.
  Since then, there is muted 
  talk of members of the 
  ancient Brotherhood of 
  Khayne perhaps being

  still in existence, hiding among the people of Exodus.  No 
  longer are their sacrifices large, public ceremonies, but 
  there will occasionally be a ritually murdered victim found 
  in which the symbols are carved into the flesh.  Whether 
  they are perpetrated by one who carries one of the three 
  original sacrificial knives is unknown.  Yet any magical 
  investigator or scholar who examines these bodies can 
  confirm that the murder was done in a sacrificial way 
  similar to that of Euhudi, and that there is a faint residual 
  energy of a power that has long since been thought 
  banished from the world.
  DESCRIPTIoN
  The Sacrificial Knives of Euhudi was originally a set of 
  three knives. The largest of the three was a two-sided 
  dagger that was used to split the flesh in clean strokes with 
  little pressure. The second was a bit smaller; a thin serrated 
  knife with a tiny hook on the end. This was meant to help 
  separate the flesh from muscle and bone. The third knife 
  was a tiny blade, meant to be used for delicate cutting and 
  carving that needed a perfect amount of control by the 
  wielder. All three knives were stored in a rolled up piece of 
  leather made from the flesh of a human sacrifice, stained 
  blood red, and tied with a strap made of woven human hair. 
  The handles of each knife are wrapped in matching leather, 
  and the symbols are etched into the flat part in the middle 
  of each blade. They are stained with a deep blood red hue 
  that will not wash away.
  The engravings on the knives can only be able to be read 
  by a true Brotherhood of Khayne member or through the 
  use of a read magic spell:
   • Two Sided Dagger: Blood for the Power of Khayne
   • Serrated knife: Flesh for the Strength of Khayne
   • Tiny Carver: To Rise Again

  DESCRIPTION
  As a weapon, each knife in the set acts like +1 keen 
  dagger. The knives are ill-suited for combat and 
  impose a -4 penalty to attack rolls.
  This item is used for making sacrifices to Khayne. 
  If a knife is used to perform a coup de grace on a 
  helpless humanoid victim, the user feels the knives 
  instructing them unconsciously on how to perform 
  their ritual. The wielder is then compelled as if 
  affected by a greater command (Will DC 17) to enact 
  the intricate ritual of sacrifice to Khayne. The ritual 
  takes 3 rounds, and the wielder, if they fail their 
  save, will not react to any distractions or attacks. 
  After completing the task, they see that they have 
  carved the symbols from the knives into the flesh 
  of the victim. The sacrifice grants the user and any 
  member of his party that is a believer of Khayne a 
  +2 profane bonus to their saving throws. For every 
  additional knife used, the bonus increases by 1 to 
  a maximum of +4 when all three knives are used. If 
  all three knives are used, all worshippers of Khayne 
  also receive a +2 luck bonus to AC. 
  Any participant who is not a believer gets a +1 
  profane bonus to their AC instead.  Using extra 
  knives gives such a participant no extra bonuses.
  These effects last for 72 hours. After 72 hours, 
  all bonuses end, and another sacrifice will be 
  necessary to regain the favor of the god. With each 
  sacrifice, the user loses 12 hours of duration for its 
  effects until a single sacrifice grants the bonus for 
  only a 24 hour period (72, 60, 48, 36, and 24). When 
  the duration reaches 24 hours, the time remains 
  unchanged thereafter.
  The bonuses are granted upon the sacrifice of 
  a living, intelligent being. Using the blades on a 
  dead sacrifice or a non-intelligent being invokes a 
  curse on the user and all of the participants of a -4 
  profane penalty to AC. A proper sacrifice removes 
  the curse. This effect can also be removed with a 
  remove curse spell.
  The user feels an addiction to the knives and the 
  power. The user can throw a DC 13 Will Save against 
  the addiction after the bonus has faded, and must 
  make a Will save every 24 hours after until 72 hours 
  have passed to be able to be free of the addiction.
