The Spear of Lugh

Weapon (spear), legendary (requires attunement)

The Spear of Lugh, one of the Four Treasures of the Tuatha Dé Danann, was brought from the island city of Gorias to Ireland. Often mistaken for the fiery lance, Areadbhar, Lugh took this spear as recompense from an enemy. It is said that Lugh’s spear is impossible to overcome and that when thrown, it will always hit its mark and return to its leather sheathe.
