The Blade of the Might Maiji (Attuned)
+2 Silvered Longsword - Major Very Rare [6,800 gp] – Attunement
You deal an extra 2 radiant damage with this weapon.
This weapon in its unactivated form looks like a simple, silvered longsword with the exception that the pommel is a blue crystal with flecks of gold. When in Guy Form this weapon has a shimmering pink blade. When in Gal Form this weapon has a worn blue blade.
Fighting Evil, Winning Love. You can speak the command phrase, "By the Might of Maiji, I will punish you!" as an action to activate the magic within the longsword for 1 minute. A frilly and exquisite gold and silver dress magically appears on your person, and faint sparkles of gold and pink occasionally shine around you. This clothing counts as Fine Clothing, and cannot be removed or damaged by any means. During the minute, you can speak the command phrases, "Guy form, go!" or "Gal form, go!" as a bonus action, which each have differing effects. While in a form, you have advantage on Charisma (Persuasion) and Charisma (Deception) ability checks against others that are, or could be, physically attracted to your respective form. You do not return to your normal form when the ability ends. This is considered a shapeshifting effect, is detected as magical and can be reverted by magical means.
This ability ends early when you are knocked unconscious, or by spending a bonus action. You can use this ability twice before finishing a long rest without issue. If you use the ability a third time before finishing a long rest, you receive two levels of exhaustion when the effect ends. You cannot use it a fourth time before resting. If you willingly ending this ability early, you can refresh a spent 1st or 2nd level spell slot.
Guy Form. If you are a female, or in Gal Form, your gender changes to the opposite, taking on an appearance appropriate for yourself as the other gender. You gain a +2 bonus to all attack rolls with this weapon. Once during the minute, you can use your action to speak the command phrase, "I am a champion of justice! On behalf of the Might Maiji, I will right wrong and triumph over evil, and that means you!" to activate Never Run from a Real Fight.
Never Run from a Real Fight. You show off a bewildering show of prowess with the longsword. Make a contested Charisma (Performance) ability check against the Wisdom (Insight) of all enemies that can see your display. Those that fail the contest are distracted, receiving disadvantage on all attack rolls that are not against you until the end of your next turn, and on Wisdom (Perception) ability checks for the rest of Fighting Evil, Winning Love's duration. Choose one of the enemies that failed the contested check, and they are forced to enter a duel with you. While this duel lasts, you and the chosen enemy only attack each other, and any area-of-effects must be centered on or otherwise include the other. The duel ends early if you or the enemy are prevented from attacking or attempting to harm the other, when you're no longer in Guy Form, or when Fighting Evil, Winning Love ends. Undead and constructs are immune to this effect.
Gal Form. If you are a male, or in Guy Form, your gender changes to the opposite, taking on an appearance appropriate for yourself as the other gender. The extra radiant damage with this weapon increases to 2d4. Once during the minute, you can use your action to speak the command phrase, "Each and every one of us have stars in our hearts, and you know that the star is shining when you feel that heat..." to activate I'm My Own Kind of Princess.
I'm My Own Kind of Princess. You cause a gratuitous amount of sparkles to appear, emphasizing your visage. All enemies within 30 feet of you that can see you make Wisdom saving throws against DC 16, becoming Charmed until the end of your next turn on a failed save. Additionally, for each ally within the range, you can remove one blind, charm, deafen, poison, or petrification condition afflicting them. Undead and constructs are immune to this effect.

Cloak of Neverending Winter
Cloak - Very Rare - 4400gp- A beautiful cloak, cold and white as snow, that has been intertwined gelatinous substance inside the fabric, and enchanted with a few spells, causing the cloak to radiate with a perpetual icy blue shimmer. While wearing this cloak, cold damage that you take is reduced by 3. Whenever a creature would take damage from you as a result of the Armor of Agathys spell, add 1d6 to the damage dealt. Additionally, you can cast the Armor of Agathys spell as a 3rd-level spell from this item. When you do so, your AC is increased by 2 while you have those temporary hit points. Once you use this ability, you cannot use it again until the next dawn.
[Base Material, Adornment, Enhancement, Enchantment, Spell Invocation x2]
Avalon - (attuned)
Wondrous (Longsword Scabbard) - Very Rare (4700gp) - Attunement
This scabbard for longswords is formed from silver consecrated by holy energy, as well as the inherent magic of paladins. On the inside, inscribed runes invoke enchantments meant to aid allies. Wrapped around it is a faintly shining feather. Lastly, the Lady of Triumph was called upon to sanctify the sheath.
While a longsword is sheathed within, as an action you can infuse it with Splendor for 2 minutes. You can use this ability twice before finishing a long rest.
Splendor. The longsword sheds bright light in a 20-foot radius and dim light for an additional 20 feet, and is considered silvered. This light is sunlight. Allies within the bright light have advantage on saving throws against being charmed and frightened.
If the longsword is nonmagical, it becomes a magic weapon with a +1 bonus to attack rolls, and deals an additional 1d6 radiant damage on a hit.
If the weapon was already magical, it instead gains the light weapon property, and the weapon’s weight is reduced by half. While light, the weapon also gains the thrown property (range 20/60 feet). If you can see the longsword within 20 feet of you, you can teleport to it as a bonus action - which causes you to wield it - or will it to return to your hand (no action required by you).
As a bonus action, you can absorb the Splendor from your weapon, ending it early and regaining hit points equal to 1d8 plus an additional amount of hit points equal to the number of rounds the ability has been active.
Splendor ends if you are knocked unconscious, if another creature wields the longsword, or you are no longer carrying the scabbard.

The Might Maiji's Arsenal, Avalon Form Set
Crafted Set:
The Blade of the Might Maiji
Avalon
The Blade of Might Maiji's main effect is given the name Fighting Evil, Winning Love for convenience.
Overwhelming Grandeur (Minor Very Rare, 3,500 gp, 35 days)
You gain the following effect while attuned to two items in the set:
If Fighting Evil, Winning Love is active while The Blade of the Might Maiji is sheathed in Avalon and your other hand is empty, you can activate the fabled secret form by speaking the command phrase, "Androgynous form, go!" as a bonus action. This also activates a use of Splendor. If used in this way, an exact copy of The Blade of the Might Maiji is formed in your empty hand. This copy is made of a pure blue or pink light, whichever is the opposite form and color of the original when activated. The copy has the same magical effects as The Blade of the Might Maiji, except those specific to the Guy or Gal forms. Any temporary effects on it and their current durations when activated (only those that directly target and affect the longsword), such as Splendor, are copied. You gain the effects of both Guy Form and Gal Form, one from the original and one from the copy, taking on an appearance that is both masculine and feminine, but your actual gender you can decide to be either or both, a complication that the magic makes possible and that you are free to explain to others in your own time. This also allows you to use the active effects of the Guy and Gal Forms an additional time. Furthermore, the bright light shed by the copy from Splendor is considered sunlight, and can only be dispelled by darkness created by a spell of 4th level or higher.
Overwhelming Grandeur can be used once before finishing a long rest, and ends when Fighting Evil, Winning Love ends, or if Splendor ends on the copy. When it does, your form reverts back to what it was before the ability was used.

Elven Bulwark
+2 Shield - Major Very Rare (5800gp) - Attunement
One of the last remaining creations of Xian Tor's blacksmith, and perhaps one of her greatest. Bearing a faded symbol of Elven Might, this shield was used by the captain of the guard, before he willingly gave his life along with his Governor to protect his city even in death.
You gain resistance to force damage.
Unending Defense: As an action you can call upon the remnants of Xian Tor's Guard Captain's resolve. For the next minute, you cannot become prone unwillingly, and you reduce any piercing and slashing damage you take by 3. Once you do so, you cannot do so again until you finish a short or long rest.
Eternal Watch: As a bonus action, choose a number of allies you can see within 30 feet of you equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1). You and the chosen allies gain 2d6 temporary hit points. You can use this ability twice, regaining both uses when you complete a short or long rest.

Love's Defense (Attuned)
Plate Armor - Legendary (12,500gp) - Attunement: Paladin
A mighty set of armor, dutifully crafted with the aid of the Love Guru. This Plate gives its user powerful healing abilities, and allows them to rush to the aid of their wounded allies, ensuring that Good shall never falter in the face of overwhelming odds.
Your Constitution score is increased by 4, to a maximum equal to your ability score cap.
Divine Mission. You can hardcast a prepared paladin spell through this armor at third level without expending a spell slot. Spell components are still needed when using this ability. This ability has two uses that refresh on a long rest.
To Protect Those Dear As an action, you can call upon an aura of heavenly healing for one minute. At the start of each of your turns, up to three allies within 20 feet of you restore 1d4 hit points. This ability has one use that refreshes on a short or long rest.
Winged Seraph. As an action, you can activate this armor's hidden powers of compassion and benevolence, summoning forth angelic wings of light from your back that radiate a holy light. This form lasts for 1 minute, and while it is active Aura of Protection and Courage's range increases by 5 feet, you gain a flying speed of 30 feet, and creatures benefiting from your Aura of Protection restore an additional 3 hit points when they receive healing. This ability has two uses that refresh on a long rest.
The use of the Remnants of the Barrier Magicks has bestowed the following effects upon the armor:
Resilient Love. You gain resistance to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
Love is Blind. After a long rest, you gain disadvantage on your first saving throw against a magical effect.

Mental characteristics
Personal history
Father was Orc, mother was Human. The parents were exiled for a crime his father didn’t commit, the family after some time learned that the exile was due to revulsion of the parents marriage. Rhok learned the art of war from his father, who taught Rhok to annihilate his foes to prevent revenge attacks though either eliminating all resistance or leaving a body count so large that none would think to challenge them again. His mother taught him prayer and how to take care of himself, as the badlands they now called home would likely see him isolated from society and people, especially as time wore on. Life in the badlands was harsh, frequent attacks from the more hostile life and lack of reliable food sources left Rhok hating the land he was forced to call home. After he came of age and was able to look after himself, his parents pushed him to look for a life outside the Badlands and find his own way as he did not fall under the exile order given for the parents. After some time wandering around outside the Badlands he found a church dedicated to Iass and learned of her ways. Realizing his life in the Badlands had a purpose in forging his skills of war and life, he sought to dedicate his life to her cause, namely to challenge all life. The way he chose to carry this sacred task forward was as paladin.
As he continued to complete missions and the like during the Kingvale incident, Rhok mellowed out some. He eventually joined the Inquisition and became their quartermaster. Due to some chance and some bad luck, Rhok eventually fell in love with Listria of the Grasping Hand. Shortly after confessing his love to Lis and beginning a relationship with her, Rhok went off on an expedition to cleanse some towns of an unknown corruption. Upon his return, he discovered that the majority of the inquisition had fled, and the newcomer Ashlyn became the leader of the Inquisition. With some political posturing and work, Rhok was able to establish control over the Inquisition and lead it ever since. He recruited Lis into the ranks and largely kept the Inquisition moving along.
After a pair of visions from Glory and a rather eventful meeting with the White Council, Rhok became more jaded and was able to make the Inquisition a permanent institution. Shortly after the meeting, Rhok departed on a mission to apprehend the Peace Makers, who would destroy towns to establish a twisted peace and had recently taken control of a castle to test their siege weaponry. After a surprisingly grueling and successful affair, Rhok returned home to the Inquisition. A couple days after his return, Rhok was dumped by Lis and had become fairly listless in trying to cope with the loss of his one piece of enjoyment in life. During this period Rhok wandered around and assisted the Striders in hunting a Chimera. Rhok is fairly functional now but a whole lot more frustrated with life.
