The second iteration of the contest, this time, with really (un)balanced item ideas, but nontheless unique.
A tiny bit of background : Another inspired theme choice "Core Item", that led to wonderful ideas. We had 9 item ideas that made it into the voting part of the contest, but only 1 emerged as victorious.
So, without further due, the winner of the Forge of Creation #2 is :
Smuggels - 363 points
Hamstertamer - 339 points
Yzreel - 333 points
The Winner's Submission:
The Drum of the Extolled
Lore
The beat throbbed through the castle, bouncing off the walls, piercing the dark that had fallen upon it. the drums solid and endless rhythm droned on and on seeming to drown the castle in its beat. the player of the drum stood directly at the base of the castle, covered in a dark green cowl he didn't slow in his ministrations of the instrument. Other noises could be heard from within the castle but they seemed faint compared to the encapsulating noise the drum made though they sounded to the observant ear like screams. slowly ever so slowly the player tired and his hands dropped to his sides in exhaustion. silence draped across the hill where the castle lay and no a sound seemed brave enough to break it. at last the creaking of wood on metal could be heard and the castles main door swung ponderously open. standing in the entrance stood a warrior. He was covered in blood from his hair where it dripped to the floor to his armoured boots which left bloody imprints upon the stone and of all of this the most startling thing was his eyes which were black as night. he stared out at the landscape seemly passing over the drum player. The Warrior suddenly threw back his head and screamed in terror to the night sky then ran with such speed away from the castle that he seemed to fly across the plains. the cloaked player picked up his drum and with a evil little smile he headed into the castle.
"The sound of the drum is said to make even the strongest willed warrior become whipped into a frenzy or run scared from the fight"
