Magic Items Inspired by King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table
Arthurian Artifacts is an 18-page 5e supplement that details 21 unique scaling magic items. These artifacts are a collection of famous items from the Arthurian Legends reimagined as powerful rare and very rare magic items for your 5e game. Each artifact is designed to capture the powers, themes, and role of their original versions from classic works such as the Historia Regum Britanniae, King Arthur and His Knights, and Le Morte d'Arthur.
Unlike normal 5e magic items, each Arthurian Artifact comes with a unique in-game objective known as an Ascension Quest. Each of these quests represent the role the artifact had in the original Arthurian legends— translated into TTRPG mechanics. Upon a wielder’s completion of an Ascension Quest, their artifact will transform into its Ascended form, gaining increased stats and abilities. The Arthurian Artifacts are designed for use in any 5e campaign.
