DLC Item Descriptions (Sunken King)

WEAPONS



-Puzzling Stone Sword-
A sword with a segmented blade.
When swung, its segments separate
and the sword strikes in a whipping slash.

Crafted with a rare magnetic stone of
remarkable strength only found deep within
caves of the Gutter.


-Drakeblood Greatsword-
Greatsword wielded by the Drakeblood Knights,
led by the honorable Sir Yorgh. The insignia
chiseled upon its hilt symbolizes dragon's blood.

To the Drakeblood Knights, fresh dragon blood
was sacrosant. They believed that by obtaining it,
they could achieve a true understanding of life,
transcending their own banal existence.


-Sanctum Mace-
A mace wielded by sanctum soldiers.

This mace was corrupted by poison
when Sinh, the sleeping dragon, awoke.

A mere mortal would be asphyxiated
by the poison emitted when wielding
this mace, but for the noxious sanctum
soldiers, this fact matters none.


-Yorgh's Spear-
Spear wielded by Sir Yorgh during his
invasion of the Sanctum City.

After his defeat of the Sunken King,
Sir Yorgh pierced Sinh, the sleeping dragon,
with this spear to claim its blood.

But Sinh immediately awoke, spewing
a poisonous fog that blanketed the
city in death, and Sir Yorgh dissapeared
into the Eternal Sanctum.


-Wrathful Axe-
An arnament forged from the soul of Elana, child of Dark.
Use strong attack to unleash its latent power. (It's actually parry)

When the Abyss dissipated, the things
that called it home were fragmented
and scattered across the realm.
Eventually these pieces regained form,
in ways that hinted at humanity's true nature.


-Sanctum Crossbow-
Crossbow wielded by sanctum knights.
Strong attack fires dark bolts.

These guardian knights were sentenced to eternal
stewardship of the Sanctum in a clandestine ritual
carried out in the great depths, but today the
sanctum recieves nary a visitor.


-Sanctum Repeating Crossbow-
Repeating crossbow wielded by sanctum knights.

These guardian knights were sentenced to eternal
stewardship of the Sanctum in a clandestine ritual
carried out in the great depths, but today the
sanctum recieves nary a visitor.



SHIELD



-Sanctum Shield-
A shield with a curious design.
One of the treasures of the Sunken King.

A mixture of mystical tree branch
and sacred chime iron allows this shield
to serve as a catalyst for miracles
and sorceries. (And hexes. It works for both staff/chime spells)

Most of the miracles and sorceries
created in the Sanctum City were lost,
but the quality of their armor and shields
suggests highly advanced craftmanship.



ARMOR



-Drakeblood Set-
Armor of the Black Drakeblood Knights,
who came from a land long forgotten.

The Drakeblood Knights, who worshipped the
blood of dragons, were led by Sir Yorgh
in a siege of the Eternal Sanctum, but sunk
into the Sanctum when the sleeping
dragon awoke.

The red cloth wrapped around their black
armor represents the sacred blood of dragons.


-Sanctum Knight Set-
Helm of the sanctum knights.

The sanctum knights renounced their own
flesh to eternally guard the Sanctum
from Sir Yorgh and his Drakeblood Knights.

(Leggings)
Effect: Reduces falling damage.
Not depicted: Slumbering Dragon Ring effect


-Sanctum Soldier Gauntlet-
Gauntlets of the sanctum soldiers.
Improves effect of poison weapons.

These gauntlets are corroded by the
poison of the sleeping dragon, making it
difficult to discern their original shape.


-Sanctum Princess Tiara-
Tiara of the Eternal Sanctum priestesses.
Prevents effects that block spells,
but lowers attunement. (As of the 18th, does not lower attunement. Might change on DLC release)

This tiara has been warped by poison,
adding to its already peculiar design.
It is said that the priestesses sang
to preserve the dragon's deep slumber,
but one wonder if a single phrase of
their song ever reached the dragon's ears.


-Crown of the Sunken King-
Crown of the Sunken King
who once ruled this land.

The King erected the Eternal Sanctum below
the earth to worship the great dragon,
but the towering bulwark crumbled with the
city shortly after the dragon's awakening.

But these were events of long ago,
and today, no one even remembers
the King's name.


-Flower Skirt-
Skirt of a nameless troubadour.
High durability, despite its appearance.

While troubadours can get by on their own
through wily use of their arts for the most part,
they might still require a generous patron.
The stunning arrangement of layered flowers
on this skirt is designed to capture the
attention of a candidate for the position.



SPELLS



-Focus Souls-
An ancient sorcery of Shulva, the Sanctum City.
Fires a focused beam of souls.

The development of sorceries was stunted
in Shulva, as they were considered taboo.
Even so, there were some occasional gems
created by a group of nameless enthusiasts.


-Denial-
An ancient miracle owed to the cardinal of Shulva.
Challenge fate one time when HP reaches 0. (sets HP to 1, no i-frames.)

Originally intended to grant the dying
a few moments for a final farewell.


-Dark Greatsword-
Hex adapted from an ancient sorcery.
Brandish Dark like a sword.

By its nature Dark is normally tranquil,
but this hex releases a focused blade
of Dark in an uncharacteristic flash
of brilliance.

Catalyst: staff


-Promised Walk of Peace-
A hex created from an ancient miracle
of unknown origin. Slows the walking pace
of its caster and those in the vicinity.

To stand and glare at one another,
steaming with ire and wrath,
but without making a move.
Such is the nature of peace.

Catalyst: Sacred Chime



RINGS



-Lightning Clutch Ring-
Ring depicting a hand grasping a stone.
Increases lightning attack,
but reduces physical defense.

The origin of this ring is unknown,
but its design suggests one of the
darker deities.

Effective use of this ring requires
skill on the part of its wearer. (It's useless.)


-Flynn's Ring-
Ring of Flynn, the infamous thief.
Utilizes the strength of the wind,
such that lower equip load proportionally
increases physical attack.

Flynn was known as a tiny fighter
who packed a mighty punch.
Even the most skilled warriors
in the land failed to capture him.


-Yorgh's Ring-
Ring of Sir Yorgh, who sought the blood
of a dragon and invaded Shulva.
Can deflect spells. (can)

When Sir Yorgh faced Sinh, the slumbering
dragon, he drew blood with a flash of his steel,
but Sinh responsed by spewing forth the
poison that had long brewed within him,
blanketing the city in a miasmic cloud.



KEYS



-Eternal Sanctum Key-
Key to the inner chamber of the Eternal Sanctum.

The Sunken King erected the
Eternal Sanctum to shelter Sinh the Dragon.

The Sanctum appears to be a solemn temple,
but it is filled with devilish creatures that
ensure no trespasser shall cause offense.


-Dragon Stone-
An extremely solid stone.
Used to operate the Eternal Sanctum contraption.

The heirloom of a race that discovered
a dragon, worshipped its magnificence,
and perished by its side.


-Dragon Talon-
A terribly worn dragon talon.

Legend has it that in the deepest reaches
of the Black Gulch, behind a door locked
from the inside, is a magnificent city
built for a great sleeping dragon.

This talon clearly dates to ancient times,
but great vitality emanates from it still.



USABLES


-Old Growth Balm-
-Vine Balm-
-Blackweed Balm-
-Goldenfruit Balm-
A balm extracted from a rare plant.
Temporarily increases strength/dexterity/intelligence/faith.

This special oil affects the mind,
granting a fleeting sense of empowerment.


-Brightbug-
A tiny bug that produces light.
Brightbugs are said to comfort the dead,
and are found in the marshlands leading
to the Undead Crypt.

By ingesting a brightbug just before death,
the moment at which they glow most brightly,
one attains great power for a short time.
Often utilized as a last-resort for adventurers
who have lost their way.

Has no effect in other worlds or for phantoms.


-Soul of Sinh, the Slumbering Dragon-
Soul of Sinh the Dragon, who sleeps
in the lowermost depths of this land.

The King erected a magnificent city,
and the dragon slept soundly.
Until Sir Yorgh disturbed it with a
single great strike, and the dragon
could bear its store of poison no longer.
The rain of death toppled the city,
but restored the dragon's purity.

The wondrous soul of this dragon
can be used to acquire numerous souls,
or to create something of great worth.


-Soul of Elana, Squalid Queen-
Soul of Elana, the Squalid Queen, who rests beside
the sleeping dragon of the Eternal Sanctum.

This child of Dark accompanies the dragon,
slowly amassing souls in anticipation
of the coming day of vengeance.

The wondrous soul of this augur or wrath
can be used to acquire numerous souls,
or to create something of great worth.
