Sanctimonious Spires

Wondrous item, very rare (Require attunements)

This set of spires is one of the three celestial regalias granted only to a chosen warrior of The Trias Celestica. They are forged and blessed by the three temples’ Radiant Keepers; each bearing the symbol of one of the three celestial deities. Typically they’re given or lent to a high-ranking paladin or priest when they are venturing on a dangerous mission sanctioned by the temple. Usually, a set of these spires consists of three different shaped spires representing the three deities, but it can also consist of three identical spires depending on the mission and who sanctioned it. These spires are so iconic that three floating spears accompany most depictions of heroes from the Trias Celestica or Rustana Theocracy.

----------------------------------------------------

The three spires count as one item when you are attuned to them. You can use a bonus action to speak the command words, causing the spires to hover around you and follow your movements. While the spires are active, you can grab and use them to make weapon attacks. A spire is considered a simple melee weapon with the finesse, light, and thrown properties. It has a normal range of 30 feet and a long range of 60 feet. On a hit, it deals 1d8 radiant damage plus the ability modifier you used for the attack roll.

When you make an attack, instead of a normal weapon attack, you can speak the command word and make the spire fly by itself toward a target within 30 feet of you. You make a ranged spell attack against the target and add your spellcasting ability modifier to the damage.

Crucifixion. When you hit a creature with a spire, it sticks into their body and the creature’s movement speed is reduced by 5 feet while it remains embedded in it. A creature stuck with all three spires becomes restrained as long as all three spires remain on its body.

At the end of its turn, the creature can make a DC 15 Strength saving throw, removing all spires on a success. You can also speak the command words to call a spire back to you (no action required)

Absolution. When a creature is restrained by the spires, you can use your action to call upon a pillar of light targeting the creature. Each creature within 5-foot-radius of the target has to make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 4d6 fire damage and 4d6 radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. After you use this ability, all the spires return to you, and you can’t use this ability again until you finish a long rest.
