Bloodrager’s Axe

Weapon (Any Axe), rare (requires attunement by a barbarian)

This item is part of a set of items (including bloodrager’s axe, bloodrager’s belt, and bloodrager’s helmet) crafted specifically to channel a barbarian’s rage to produce magical effects. If a character is attuned to at least two of the items in the set, each item becomes Furious and gains various improvements.

This magic axe is crafted from steel, bone, and wood, and inset with a sapphire. While you re raging and holding the axe, you gain the following benefits:

• When you use your Reckless Attack feature, your attacks with the axe this turn deal an extra 1d8 fire damage on a hit.
• Once per turn, when you hit a creature with an attack roll using this axe, you can force the target to make a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the target has disadvantage on attack rolls against creatures other than you and can’t willingly move away from you, until the end of your next turn.

Furious. When the axe reaches a Furious state, it gains the following properties:

• The extra fire damage dealt by your reckless attacks increases to 2d8.
• The DC of the axe’s saving throw increases to 15.
