The Axe of Creation is said to have been wielded by the giant’s All-Father Annam eons ago to shape the worlds of the Material Plane.
For those unfamiliar, an adze is a small, axe-like tool used in woodworking and other crafting. The fact that this usually handheld tool is big enough to be wielded as a greataxe should be telling of how large its original owner must’ve been.
The Adze of Annam isn’t just a huge tool. It can be used as a weapon. It’s got a +3 to attack and damage rolls and dolls out an extra 3d12 Force Damage per hit, making it a destructive force in the hands of a Strength-focused build that can attack multiple times per turn.
You can also use this magic item for terraforming and crafting, as is fitting for a tool for creation. Once per day, you can cast move earth or fabricate, allowing you to channel the creativity of Annam in your day-to-day adventuring.
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: Bonus: Magic, Damage, Combat, Heavy, Two-Handed, Cleave
