Horned Helmet Replica, Waterloo Bridge, 150 to 50BCE, The Museum of London.

Made from sheet bronze and bronze rivets, the horns were symbolic and it's unlikely it was ever worn for battle; it was more likely a religious, votive offering. The original is in The British Museum.

Our party blackguard claimed this suit of armour last session, so now I am at liberty to share its (D&D 3.5 edition) properties online. But first, some lore:

“Hide, hide, the Red Man is here Moloh-Chi the Soulless with his mask made for fear You may hide, you may run or you may stand up and try to defeat the Once-Defeated but he knows how you’ll die: One blow, you’re senseless two blows, defenceless Three blows, you’re reeling Four blows, you’re kneeling Five blows, begging, crying Six blows, fi-nally dying And seven are the blows all in all needed to cut up your soul.”

Dark folklore surrounds the character of Moloh-Chi, a warrior said to have made some grisly pact with the Lower Planes. While he was probably a real, historic figure from the Eastern Spine of the World region during the fledgeling years of the Netheril empire, precious little is known for sure. Legend has it that a star-crossed love for the daughter of a prefect caused Moloh-Chi to forfeit his soul to a devil in exchange for power, and then went on to single-handedly slaughter, raze and burn the prefect’s village.

The two lovers eloped and hid in the mountains, where the authorities at last found and challenged Moloh-Chi. His life ended with a killing blow from a soldier who had aimed his spear at the obidome or sash clip the prefect’s daughter had fastened over her lover’s heart.

Folkloristic tales of the region since speak of a ghost clad in red armour wandering the land, with a bitter hatred towards all mortals still possessing their souls.

It is unsure whether the name ‘Moloh-chi’ was derived from the word moloch, meaning something demanding terrible sacrifices, or if that word itself sprung from the legend of Moloh-Chi the Soulless.

Moloh-Chi’s +2 Plate Armour of Dread Lore

This unique set of +2 Full Plate functions normally despite being incredibly old and looking a bit worse for wear.

In addition to its enhancement bonus, this suit of armour grants the wearer a chance to strike fear in the hearts of bystanders each time he or she scores a (confirmed) critical hit on an opponent with a melee weapon or unarmed strike.

When the wearer confirms their critical hit and as part of the wearer’s turn, any humanoid with fewer HD than the wearer and within 30 ft. becomes eligible for the armour’s panic-inducing property. The wearer can freely choose which of these effectively get targeted, and which are exempt.

Targets must succeed at a Will save (DC 10 + ½ wearer’s HD + wearer’s CHA modifier) or become panicked (PHB p. 311) for 1d6 rounds. Creatures who make their save instead become shaken (PHB p. 312) for 1 round and become immune to the armour’s panic-inducing property for the next 24 hours.

Moderate Necromancy [fear, mind-affecting].

(No Price or Weight because math is hard and people who care about encumbrance don't deserve to wear this imo)

Disclaimer: homebrew item, but the Forgotten Realms setting belongs to Ed Greenwood and Wizards of the Coast / Hasbro. "Visions of Pelvuria" is the name of my campaign.

Sometimes, you just need a drink.

Here's another OC of mine, the ruthless slasher Carrie Underkill. Starting as a fugitive knight from an English kingdom, she's now a monstrous murderer who slays anyone that comes across her. It goes without saying that all of Britain wants her head... and her horns.

Quite hard to grab a pint in this predicament, innit? lol

There's always trouble when the Hornsup clan meets the Hornsdown gang. (Jeff Easley, AD&D 2e Dungeon Master's Guide, TSR, 1989) The pale blue maps in early modules were charming. The pale blue art in 2e books was a bizarre editorial choice that lasted years. (Previously)
