This axe was once wielded by a nameless warrior known only by his title: the Iron Tempest. Legends say his armies marched upon the fractured first kingdom of mortals and split it into pieces, creating the six kingdoms of Maritus. When the Iron Tempest ran out of worthy foes to face, he disappeared, fading into obscurity.
This weapon functions as a +3 greataxe with the following additional properties.
Earthshaker. As a bonus action, you stomp hard onto the ground, creating a 15 foot cone of shredded stones. Creatures in this area must make a DC 18 strength save or take 4d6 slashing damage and be knocked prone. If you are below half your maximum hit points, this action instead creates a 40 foot radius blast of wind, dealing 6d6 bludgeoning damage a failed save and pushing creatures back 15 feet and knocking them prone. You may use this a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all uses on a long rest.
Furious eruption. If you are below half your maximum hit pints, you may use an action to slam your axe into the ground, creating a 15 foot wide, 40 foot long explosion of void energy. Creatures in this area must make a dc 18 constitution save or take 8d10 force damage and be stunned until the start of your next turn. You may use this action once per long rest.
Proficiency with a Greataxe allows you to add your proficiency bonus to the attack roll for any attack you make with it.
This weapon has the following mastery property. To use this property, you must have a feature that lets you use it.
Cleave. If you hit a creature with a melee attack roll using this weapon, you can make a melee attack roll with the weapon against a second creature within 5 feet of the first that is also within your reach. On a hit, the second creature takes the weapon’s damage, but don’t add your ability modifier to that damage unless that modifier is negative. You can make this extra attack only once per turn.
Notes: barbarian or fighter, Heavy, Two-Handed, Cleave
