HOMEBREW BY BREWSKI

A new gameplay mechanic focused on enhancing weapons and

armor with solid bits of Weave energy.
 The Weave is the fabric within which all existence is possible.
All things that exist are born out of the Weave and are eventually
absorbed back into it at the end of their lifespans.
In one respect, the Weave is like the sea. Just as individual drops
can be pulled from the water, so can individual entities be born of the
Weave. Just as each drop that falls back to the sea loses itself and
becomes but a contribution to the greater whole, so do all entities
rejoin the Weave when at length they are finally re-absorbed.
Though the Weave is not water, it is nevertheless undulating,
vibrating, and moving. In spaces where calmness abounds, there is
very little matter. Spaces of higher energy are hotbeds of existence –
magic, law, order, chaos, and entropy. We have observed that dense,
high-energy vibrations of the Weave are the foundations of all types of
matter: physical, spiritual, ethereal, and so forth. In this way, the
Weave is the maker of all things, and yet we all remain connected to
each other through the Weave. The greater the so-called "size" of a
wave of vibration, the more powerful it is. And, of course, this power
can be multidimensional, whether the dimension is magic, intelligence,
physical stature, or some combination of traits.
The gods themselves, as well as we mortals, are nothing but
waves of varying size and vibrational density. Because of this, we
believe that in differing times and places across worlds and realities,
the Weave has probably manifested a wide array of deities, many of
which retaining similarities to the gods that govern our realm. But
because of the sea-like nature of the Weave, it is infinitely unlikely
that any single being is ever manifested twice.
You can therefore be confident that although there may exist
beings similar to you somewhere in the multiverse, some uncannily so,
you are the only you that will ever exist.

stones with a varying range of color, texture, and
translucency. They have approximately the same
diameter as a common gold coin but feel a bit heavier
than expected to the touch, as if they were made of a
dense substance like lead.
Wielding a bit of this type of ore allows characters to
produce magical effects through pure will that might
otherwise require years of study and practice, lengthy
and complex rituals, or expenditure of material
components. Theoretically, anything can be
accomplished via the usage of Weave ore. Extremely
powerful ores of the combat type are rare, however. Due
to the high energy required to create them as well as a
lengthier production time and careful fine-tuning of
energy frequencies, they are difficult to produce.
Because each ore is a solid fragment created with a
singular purpose, the effects it can trigger are usually
relatively simple and pure. There are three basic types
of combat ore: Spellcasting ore, Enhancement ore,
and Ability ore.
Spellcasting ore contains charges allowing you to
cast certain spells at will. Enhancement ore is designed
to augment the effects of Spellcasting ore. Ability ore
modifies your statistics and boosts your physical
abilities. A comprehensive list of available ores and
their effects can be found at the end of this document.
However, a common baseline for how most of these
ores function is described here.

The most common slotted items are weapons and
armor. Not all weapons and armor contain slots
however, and among those that do, not all items contain
the same number of slots in the same configurations.
Any slotted item is considered a magic item, since it has
been enhanced with the ability to harness ore energy.
Standard items can also be converted into slotted items
by any master smith with sufficient knowledge of the
arcane.

ore from a slotted item.

Copies of the book are commonly found in libraries
(including upper class home libraries), book stores,
and shops related to the arcane.

DESTROYING ORE
While equipped to a slotted item, ore can not be
destroyed unless an effect specifically states that it
destroys ore that is currently equipped. While
unequipped, a piece of ore has an AC of 17, 5 hit
points, and a Damage Threshold of 5, Thus a given
hit will either destroy a piece of ore, or it will not
affect the ore at all.
When ore is destroyed it emits a quick burst of
bright light and disappears entirely, being absorbed
back into the Weave. This effect is normally
superficial and does not do any damage unless
otherwise specified by an ore's description.

ACQUIRING ORE
Ore can be found throughout the world in secret hiding
places, in arcane shops, and among the belongings of
defeated adversaries. In many cases, the pre-written
descriptions of various locations will dictate which bits
of ore reside therein. To help facilitate using ore in your
own campaigns, the following table suggests how much
ore, how many slotted items, and how many total slots
are generally appropriate for players at various levels.

Ores Max Slots Max Slotted

Level Spell Enhance. Ability Total Items
1-2 1 – – 1-2 1
3-4 2 – – 1-2 1
5-6 2-3 1 – 2-3 1
7-9 3 1-2 1 2-3 1
10-12 4 2 1 3 1-2
13-15 5 3 2 3-4 1-2
16-17 6 3 3 4 2
18-19 6 4 3 5 2
20 7 4 4 6 3

Ore usually doesn’t sell for less than 500 gp and rare
ore should almost never be found in shops. In terms of
rarity overall, bits of ore can be thought of as minor/
common magic items. It is better to keep balance by
controlling the rarity of slotted items than worrying
about how much ore the players are collecting.
