[pnpgm] gift

[Alex Koponen]

IF Z'leyra can cast the mana today (she may be close to exceeding her 
daily limit) she will want to cast Communicate EL0 and Tongues EL0 (cost 
x 5) both thru her staff on the old man so that she can learn the 
language. If it would take too much mana she will request the old man 
stay around with the party at least till the next day.

   Z'leyra mentions "Unali, I have something I would gift to you."

She then takes Unali aside and speaks to her privately. "In honor of my
respect for you and of our friendship I gift to you this dagger <drawing
and handing her the magical fighting dagger, pommel first> and the
sheath for the dagger." As Z'leyra removes the sheath from her belt she
continues, "This dagger is crafted by a master of Kameri weaponsmithing,
myself, and as such the metal is tougher than most human made daggers.
Further, I have enchanted the blade so that it is nearly thrice the
toughness of a normal dagger, enchanted it so that it cuts better than a
greatsword and enchanted it so that it improves the wielder's likelihood
of hitting the opponent. I also ensorceled the blade so that, the first
three times it is drawn each day it will cast upon the wielder a spell
that allows sight a moment into the likely future - a spell of immense
help in a melee, though somewhat distracting at other times."

    As she hands the sheath over Z'leyra says "This sheath I also made
specifically for that dagger. The leather is enchanted so that it is as
tough as chainmail, it should last well. The designs incorporate
protective patterns. I ensorcelled the sheath to not only boost the
wearer's resistance to chaos magics but also ensorcelled protections
that give the wearer immunity to low powered chaos spells and reduce the
effect of higher powered chaos spells. Finally I ensorcelled Watchful
Sleep into the sheath. Speaking the phrase <Kameri for 'Rest, watch and
regenerate'> will trigger a sleep of seven hours during which you will
be aware of what is around you while restfully sleeping, recovering mana
if you cast spells and regenerating a fair bit from any wounds. If you
are wounded remember not to trigger it within 24 hours of the previous
time you triggered it while wounded as multiple healings stress the
body. Such stress can be fatal."

    "Each of these items is worth twice that of a set of plate mail. I
hope that they serve you well." Z'leyra bows.
