'''''Solar Flare''''' is a [[intelligent item|sentient]] ''+2 [[disruption]] [[flaming]] [[light burst]] [[adamantine]] [[heavy mace]]'' wielded by the [[drow]] [[sunmaster]] [[User:StarSword/Faernethue Vrinn|Faernethue Vrinn]].<br />
<br />
It is valued at over 100,000 gold pieces.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
Even among intelligent items, Solar Flare is unique, in that it was once a living person wielding a normal (if heavily enchanted) heavy mace.<br />
<br />
Born in the [[-379 DR|Year of Dancing Idols]], Adrian Valarh was a [[cleric]] of [[Amaunator]] in ancient [[Netheril]], stationed in the city of [[Harrax]]. More militant than most Amaunatori, he served with distinction in several battles against the [[phaerimm]]s, and eventually was named Harrax's high priest. On the side, he acted as a judge.<br />
<br />
Harrax survived [[Karsus's Folly]] only to fall prey to a warlord named [[Ten-Ap]], who called himself the Sand King. Ten-Ap brought with him a hoard of treasures, including several minor [[artifact]]s. No one ever bothered to catalogue them all, and when he died a few years later his son was to be crowned Sand King.<br />
<br />
Somehow, one of the artifacts awoke then, the ''[[Dead Throne]]''. It raised Ten-Ap from the dead as a [[lich]], and swiftly transformed most of the inhabitants of Harrax into various forms of [[undead]]. Adrian Valarh went to sleep one night and woke up as a [[mummy]]. His force of will enabled him and some of his fellow priests to resist the ''Dead Throne's'' pull, letting them retain their sensibilities, but they could not leave the city again, and were left tending the temple without the benefit of Amaunator's divine magic.<br />
<br />
Valarh, now 79, was furious, but had no way to defeat the power of the ''Dead Throne'' or its other undead servants. But he had not attained his rank without being a resourceful man, and he always kept a [[scroll]] of ''[[miracle]]'' handy for emergencies. He took up his mace, "Solar Flare" and cast the spell, binding his consciousness into his weapon. He slept for the next 1,600 years, only awakening when a living intelligent creature approached Harrax. Some tried to claim Solar Flare, but Valarh's consciousness would only accept a wielder who followed Amaunatori dogma (whether by intent or by coincidence), and would try to defeat Ten-Ap and the ''Dead Throne'', thereby freeing his subordinates from their [[undeath]]. None succeeded.<br />
<br />
=== Three Elves and a Kobold ===<br />
Over the centuries hundreds of people fell prey to the power of the ''Dead Throne'', be they treasure hunters, undead fighters, or [[Bedine]] nomads. Those who died in battle were lucky; few had the power to resist the artifact's magic or will. By the 1370s, Harrax was heavily populated with mummies. <br />
<br />
In the pre-dawn hours of 8 [[Mirtul]], in the [[1373 DR|Year of Rogue Dragons]], a quartet of adventurers appeared outside Harrax. They called themselves "[[User:StarSword/Three Elves and a Kobold|Three Elves and a Kobold]]," and a stranger team never walked the surface of Toril. For two tendays they had traveled from their home base in the [[Silver Marches]], laying to rest the spirit of an [[androsphinx]] along the way.<ref name="OLR">{{cite web |url=http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/oa/20010202a |title=One Last Riddle |accessmonthday=December 5 |accessyear=2009 |last=Eckelberry |first=David |authorlink=David Eckelberry |coauthors= |date= |year=2001 |month= |format=PDF |work=Free Original Adventures |publisher=[[Wizards of the Coast]] |pages= |language= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |quote= }}</ref><br />
<br />
Valarh's consciousness awoke within Solar Flare, and he spoke to his mummy acolytes. They informed him that a group of adventurers had entered the city. They had already defeated one patrol of mummy soldiers and were battling another house-to-house on the other side of the town's ruins. They also reported that two members of the group were [[drow|dark elves]]. Solar Flare was furious, but then an acolyte with skill as a [[diviner]], having [[scry]]ed the adventurers, observed to his astonishment that the female leader, one of the drow, had just held aloft a [[holy symbol]] of Amaunator, called out that deity's name, and [[turn undead|incinerated several mummies at once]]. The sentient mace was speechless.<br />
<br />
The adventurers, however, sustained some dangerous injuries, and fled eastward to the ruins of the temple to take shelter. Bursting in through the door, they stopped in their tracks at the sight of yet more mummies. In the lead was a [[moon elf]] with a [[longsword]] and [[shuriken]], followed by a [[dragonwrought kobold|winged kobold]] holding a spear twice as tall as he was, with a bloody bandage about his head. Next to the kobold stood a short, armored drow woman with a mace and shield, and in the rear was a [[chainmail]]-clad dark elf with a [[rapier]]. To Solar Flare's utmost surprise, he heard the female swear fluently in [[Loross]] before ordering her team into "combat positions". They slowly began to advance.<br />
<br />
The six mummified denizens of the temple, however, made no move to attack. Teniva Kaloum, one of the lower-ranked former priests, confused the adventurers even further when he took his mace from his belt and threw it to the stone floor. He then called to them in Common, "Peace be with you. I would welcome you to Harrax, but you are not welcome anywhere but this shrine."<br />
<br />
The adventurers introduced themselves, and the kobold explained that their "fearless leader Faery Vrinn" had led them here at the behest of a [[Lathander]]ite [[trumpet archon]] named Mauriel, and they were to rededicate the temple. Faernethue Vrinn, the female drow, introduced herself as a [[sunmaster]], and asked for aid. Teniva directed her to the altar upon which Solar Flare lay. Vrinn picked up the weapon and immediately was mentally assaulted by the persona within. <br />
{{Quote|<br />
''"What is this?" she ground out.'' <br/><br />
''In her head she heard a masculine voice in Loross say, "You seek to wield me? You, one of the foul dark elves?"'' <br/><br />
''"I am not an average drow. I am a sunmaster of Amaunator."''<br/><br />
''"A drow cannot possibly be a sunmaster."''<br />
|actual exchange during gameplay between Faernethue Vrinn (played by [[User:StarSword|StarSword]]) and Solar Flare (NPC played by the DM)}}<br />
<br />
But Vrinn disagreed. The gold sun around her neck blazed white, and she overcame Solar Flare with the aid of Lathander/Amaunator.<br />
<br />
Once she had proven herself the stronger of the two wills, she and her allies rested for the day in the shelter of the temple, during which time she attempted to gain the intelligent weapon's trust. That night, having tended their wounds and (in Faernethue's case) prepared new spells, they set out into the ruins again, and managed to destroy Ten-Ap and all his servitor mummies.<br />
<br />
With Valarh/Solar Flare's dearest wish acheived (and the party running low on supplies), the group gathered what loot they could and set out to the [[Dalelands]] to resupply. On the return journey to their home in the Silver Marches, they came back to Harrax to complete their mission. Vrinn prayed at the altar for the rededication of the temple. Mauriel appeared and took possession of the ''Dead Throne'' in Lathander's name. Vrinn asked Solar Flare if she could keep it, and it agreed.<br />
<br />
== Personality ==<br />
Solar Flare is virtuous to a fault, and understandably despises the undead. It adheres strictly to a code of conduct that emphasizes honor and treats violence as a last resort. It is highly disciplined and unafraid to speak its mind. However, it also enjoys a good laugh, and loves to read. (This is, of course, difficult unless he is looking over someone's shoulder.)<br />
<br />
===Powers===<br />
In addition to its basic properties, Solar Flare can [[darkvision|see in the dark]] for 120 feet. It can communicate by both speech and telepathy, and is literate. The wielder is able to [[deathwatch|perceive]] the strength of nearby creature's life-forces. Once a day, it can cast ''[[Cure Moderate Wounds|cure moderate wounds]]'' on the wielder. Finally, in defense of the servants and/or interests of Amaunator, Solar Flare can cast a mighty 10d6 ''[[fireball]]'' at will.<br />
<br />
Since it is made of adamantine, it can stand up to much more punishment than iron or steel weapons. (Hardness 20, <br />
<br />
===Relationships===<br />
In life Adrian Valarh sired two daughters and three sons by two different wives, and over a dozen grandchildren, but as this was over 1,700 years ago the Valarh persona has no idea if any of his descendants still live. Following his transformation, his family was his mummified subordinates; now, his family is the adventuring group Three Elves and a Kobold.<br />
;[[Faernethue Vrinn]]: Solar Flare regards its wielder as a gifted daughter and student, and works to keep her on the straight and narrow. The pair are a solid team.<br />
;[[Aramil Galanodel]]: The Valarh persona is conflicted about the group's "intrusion expert," a former member of the [[Fire Knives]]. On the one hand, it dislikes Galanodel's methods and the fact that he still venerates the thief god [[Mask]]. On the other hand, it can appreciate the personal discipline and training required to master the [[ninja]]'s skills, and recognizes that the elf has a good heart and wishes to atone for his bloodstained past.<br />
;[[Rylfal Xiluin]]: The only member of the group that Solar Flare really dislikes is the drow [[warlock]]/[[sorcerer]] who operates as the team's artillery. Xiluin is a vagabond of sorts who joined up with Vrinn both for some extra protection and to find a way out of his ancestor's pact with a [[yochlol]]. He is a realist, deals with fiends on a regular basis, and has little in the way of personal discipline. His sole redeeming feature in Solar Flare's eyes is that he's the only member of the group that knows more about the [[plane]]s than it does.<br />
;[[Tetcaz Torunn]]: At first the Valarh persona didn't know ''what'' to make of the group's [[fighter]], a flying [[kobold]] spearman who was raised by [[dwarves]] and worships [[Marthammor Duin]]. Now it understands that the kobold has a code not unlike its own, though it's less about honor and more about practicality. (For his part, Torunn is still trying to wrap his head around the idea of a mace that talks.)<br />

<div>This template is for use when citing ''Forgotten Realms'' or ''Dungeons & Dragons'' books. It is based on the [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite book|Wikipedia cite book]] template. Use this template when you want to cite an article. It has many sub-templates which can be used to easily cite certain existing ''Forgotten Realms'' or ''Dungeons & Dragons'' books. If no sub-template exists for the book that you wish to cite, you can still use this template manually.<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
Below are examples and instructions for using this template.<br />
<br />
=== When a sub-template exists ===<br />
If there is already a sub-template for the book you want to cite, it will be under this template, separated by a forward slash character. For example, the sub-template for ''[[Elves of Evermeet]]'' is accessed using:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
{{Cite book/Elves of Evermeet}}<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
Note the capitalization of the words in the template name. Putting this template on the page will automatically include all the citation details you need for this book. You can also cite certain pages from a book as follows:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
{{Cite book/Elves of Evermeet|50}}<br />
{{Cite book/Elves of Evermeet|50-51}}<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
Use the first where you only want to cite a single page. Use the second where you need to cite several pages at once.<br />
<br />
=== When no sub-template exists ===<br />
The best option here is to create the sub-template. Just copy an existing sub-template, such as [[Template:Cite book/Elves of Evermeet]] and change the details. A great place to gain the details for any ''Forgotten Realms'' or ''Dungeons & Dragons'' book is on the [http://www.wizards.com/ Wizards of the Coast] site, where you can usually just search for the book's title.<br />
<br />
If you cannot create the sub-template for any reason, or it would not be worthwhile (usually because your book is unlikely to be cited again), you can use this template directly as follows:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
{{Cite book<br />
| author = <br />
| title = <br />
| series = <br />
| year = <br />
| publisher = <br />
| ISBN = <br />
| pages =<br />
}}<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
The "series," "pages," "year," and "ISBN" parameters are optional. All other parameters are required and cannot be left out. You can include wiki links in the "author," "title," "series," and "publisher" parameters where appropriate.<br />
<br />
===Unknown page numbers===<br />
If you cannot provide a page number for your citation, but there is likely to be one, use the question mark (?) character as your page number. This will place your article into a category for articles that need more specific page number. On the other hand, if it will never be possible to provide a page number, because the source does not have page numbers for example, then leave the page number out of your citation altogether.<br />
<br />
=== When citing a source multiple times ===<br />
Put the actual reference where you want the <sup>[1]</sup> to appear on the page, like this (in my example I'm citing page 54):<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
<ref>{{Cite book/Elves of Evermeet|54}}</ref><br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
Then, if you want to cite page 55 later in the article, again, put this where you want the <sup>[2]</sup> to appear (note the different page number):<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
<ref>{{Cite book/Elves of Evermeet|55}}</ref><br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
Then finally, at the end of the article, create a notes section that will automatically generate your references, like this:<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
== Notes ==<br />
<references /><br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
If you want to use the same citation in different places in the same article, you'll need to give it a name the first time you use it, like this:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
<ref name="EoEp16">{{Cite book/Elves of Evermeet|16}}</ref><br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
Then, every time you want to use it again in the same article (you can use it again as many times as you like) you would put this:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
<ref name="EoEp16" /><br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
If you need to see a working example, please edit the [[Cormanthor]] page and see the wiki markup [[User:Fw190a8|Fw190a8]] used there.</div>67.142.130.16https://www.dandwiki.com/w/index.php?title=Template:Cite_book&diff=483713Template:Cite book2010-07-29T03:13:03Z<p>67.142.130.16: wrote template</p>
