+2 Petrified Ironwood Root-Maul

This enormous two-handed weapon is carved from magically petrified ironwood. Its head is the original root ball of an ancient tree, preserved and hardened by powerful primal magic. Hundreds of thick roots extend from the central mass, each ending in a naturally sharpened point, creating a brutal spherical cluster of wooden spikes.

The weapon uses the 2024 Greatclub as its base: 1d8 Bludgeoning damage, Two-Handed, and Push mastery.

Spiked Root Ball When you hit a creature with the Root-Maul, the sharpened roots tear into the target.

The attack deals an additional 1d6 Piercing damage. Thus, a normal hit deals: 1d10 + 1d6 + 2 + your Strength modifier

Rooted Impact The weapon's massive root ball can slam creatures backward with tremendous force.

When you hit a Large or smaller creature with the weapon, you can use its Push Mastery to push the creature up to 10 feet straight away from you, provided you have a feature that allows you to use the weapon's Push mastery.

When you push a creature this way, several of the sharpened roots briefly dig into the ground before the weapon violently launches the target backward.

Petrified Ironwood The weapon is extraordinarily durable. Its petrified wood cannot be rotted, burned, or broken by ordinary means, and the sharpened roots never become dull.

The weapon counts as magical for purposes of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Ancient Root The weapon retains a faint connection to the living tree from which it came. When planted firmly against the ground, its roots slowly twitch and seek the earth.

If left undisturbed overnight in natural soil, tiny green shoots briefly emerge from the root ball before withering away at dawn.
