The Unbound Fang – Cold Iron Dagger (Unique Item)

Item Type: Weapon (Dagger), Rare (requires attunement by a non-Fey creature)

Weapon Properties:

  • Damage: 1d4 piercing
  • Damage Type: Piercing (plus special)
  • Properties: Finesse, Light, Thrown (range 20/60)
  • Material: Cold Iron (ignores Fey resistances to non-magical weapons)

Special Properties:

1. Oathbound Protection
This dagger cannot be magically stolen, disarmed, or removed from the wielder against their will. Attempts to do so automatically fail unless the wielder is unconscious or dead.

2. The Unspoken Blade
Fey creatures cannot speak of, describe, or name this dagger. They cannot warn others about it or even perceive it as a threat until it is used against them. If struck by this weapon, they become aware of it for 1 minute, during which they can attempt to flee or defend, but still cannot describe it.

3. Severing Glamour
When you hit a Fey creature with this dagger, you may choose to disrupt one illusion, charm, or invisibility effect active on the target (no save). This ability can be used once per short rest.

4. Silent Oath
While attuned, the wielder gains advantage on saving throws against being charmed or magically silenced.

5. Legacy of the Silent Pact
If the wielder is ever forced into a Fey bargain or contract, they may invoke the dagger’s name to nullify the pact once in their lifetime. The dagger shatters after this use.

Appearance:
The Unbound Fang is a dagger of Cold Iron, bearing the hallmarks of a weapon forged not for elegance, but for finality. Its blade is straight, double-edged, and worn—scarred by time and use rather than polished for show. The steel holds a dull gray-blue cast, like twilight held in metal. The crossguard is rough, angled downward in the shape of broken wings, its surface uneven as if shaped more by resistance than craft.

The handle is wrapped in aged leather—dark, cracked, and practical—lending a firm grip but no comfort. Its pommel is a fractured gray stone, pierced by a hollow at its center, lending the weapon a strange, silent gravity. There are no runes, no flourishes, only a presence: unmistakable and unyielding.

Attunement:
Requires attunement by a non-Fey creature who has rejected a magical pact or resisted Fey influence.
