Jarlhammer
Fetish · Werewolf
Level Five, Gnosis 6 These mighty two-handed hammers are the pinnacle of Get craftsmanship. Like the lesser Ironhammers, they are forged from silver-laced iron and cooled in the blood of freshly slain enemies; however, the Get bind spirits of war and silver alike within. Each hammer inflicts Strength +3 aggravated damage; the damage counts as silver damage, and is thus unsoakable to Garou. Only a werewolf can throw such a weapon accurately, and only to a distance of 5 yards for every dot of Strength. Whenever a blow from a Jarlhammer slays its target, the hammer resounds with a powerful thunderclap, an nouncing to friend and foe alike that another enemy of the Get of Fenris has fallen.
There are seven of these hammers; some are wielded by powerful Jarls, while at least one has been lost. Each one has its own name and secondary power:
• Forge-Crusher blazes with fire when activated, and inflicts an additional health level of fire damage with each blow.
• Grinding-Tooth can smash any stone into powder, obliterating a cubic foot of rock or concrete with every strike.
• Spear-Chaser flies three times as far as its siblings when thrown, and the thrower never suffers any penalties for range.
• Troll-Eater pulverizes bone and smashes armor; opponents lose one die from all soak pools to resist its damage.
• Bright-Arm shines with the light of sun and moon alike; opponents who rely on sight to target op ponents lose two dice from their dice pools when attacking its wielder.
• Hag-Talon is fortified against the magic of enemies, granting its wielder three additional dice to any Willpower roll made to resist mind-manipulating powers.
• Pain-Eagle leaves wounds that throb with agony; those wounded by the hammer suffer double the usual dice pool penalties for their wounds.
