June gaming element challenge - Moonstone shield

June gaming element challenge – Moonstone shield

Item Type: Artifact The shield is oddly lightweight and quite translucent with a faint blue tinge to it. There are designs—perhaps letters in a lost tongue?—written around its edge. It is circular with a four-foot diameter, but its weight is half of what one would expect from a steel shield of the same size and shape. Attempts to break the shield, whether through magic or physical attacks, fail.

June gaming element challenge - Keys of Power: Curare

June gaming element challenge – Keys of Power: Curare

Item Type: Artifact The key is the green of the leaves of high summer, their depth and purity. It is a key crafted to be used by a healer of no small skill—it seems to me that if there were a key that could possibly counter the Gatekeeper’s Key, it might be this, though I could be overstating its power. It is for certain the Key of Healing, once held by the legendary Naria, Mistress of the…

Even as it is a key of heroes, it also seems to be some kind of key of Tragedy.  It seems that…
