The Dreamcatcher
The Dreamcatcher is a six foot tall staff with a dreamstone encased at the top of the staff. With the use of one mote of essence, the attuned user to the staff can download the most recent dream of whatever target the staff touches. With another mote of essence, that dream can be replayed in the attuned user's mind at any time. The dreamstone can store and replay any number of dreams, however only the most recent dream can be harnessed by the staff for bonus effects, as described below.
Fear, Macabre, Death, Greed, Corruption - After a blow dealing lethal damage, the opponent is haunted with visions of defeat and must make a Valor check to continue the fight. Regardless of the outcome of the Valor check, the user is at +1 DV against that opponent for the remainder of the battle because of these visions. This bonus does not stack with multiple successful hits.
Hope, Piety, Righteousness, Equality - The staff glows a vibrant white and is soothing to the touch. The holder's healing time is cut in half.
Passion, Chaos, Freedom, Rage, Impulse - The staff catches fire and is searing hot with the exception of the area where it is being held. This adds +4L damage to all attacks.
Life, Nature, Spirit, Survival - The staff hardens and vines and bark grow up the hands of the holder, providing additional protection in the form of +6B/+3L soak.
Logic, Illusion, Manipulation, Lore - The staff projects an illusion that the scene is taking place at the scene of the most recent stored dream. This only works on groups of 10 people or less. 4 willpower can be spent to break from the illusion.
