Zealot Staff
Item 17
Price 13,000 gp
Usage held in 1 hand; Bulk 1
Category Staff
A zealot staff's color, iconography, and materials vary depending on the faith it's dedicated to. An Laisouvisan staff might be forged of gold and shaped like an ornamental sword, while a Muvraan one could instead be made of blackened iron depicting monstrous faces. Used as a weapon, the staff is a +3 greater striking staff.
The staff represents vehement support of the deity to whom the staff is dedicated, punishing defiance. When the staff's effects require choosing alignments, you can choose only that deity's alignments. No such staves exist for deities that are true neutral. When you prepare this staff, if you don't worship its deity, you become drained 1 until your next daily preparations.

Zuku's Lament
Item 20
Usage held in one hand; Bulk L
Category Held
Resembling little more than a simple iron pipe with a handle, Zuku's Lament is one of the most well-known star guns in all of Treithebal. Legends state the Crowned Regent Zuku helped forge one of the first star guns millennia ago. While the star gun served Zuku as a powerful weapon, its most notable achievement was the accidental killing of one of Zuku's greatest friends. This death is what caused the regent to recognize the true destructive power of the star guns and led to him developing the Star Code, a set of rules of engagement and proper use of firearms still in use in Treithebal today. Although Zuku never named the weapon himself, all legends that mention the weapon refer to it as Zuku's Lament.
The legendary weapon is a +3 major striking speed advanced firearm with a range increment of 90 feet. It deals 4d6 force damage (with the major striking rune included) and has the concealable, concussive, and fatal d10 traits. You don't take a penalty when dealing nonlethal damage with the weapon. Like most star guns, Zuku's Lament uses magic to function and doesn't require ammunition or black powder. If you use Zuku's Lament as part of a duel in which all parties are in agreement on the terms, the gun's supernatural instincts help you make the quickest draw. You roll twice and take the higher result on your initiative roll for the duel; this is a fortune effect. In addition, you can draw Zuku's Lament as a free action at the start of your turn during the duel. If you attempt to fire the star gun in bad faith at a dueling opponent once they have surrendered, been defeated, or the duel is over, Zuku's Lament flies out of your hand and you can't pick it up, hold it, or wield it for 10 minutes.
While Zuku's Lament is moving independently, you can command it to make a Strike against a creature as an action, which has the concentrate trait. It makes a ranged Strike using your attack modifier while wielding it or a +31 bonus, whichever is higher. This attack increases your multiple attack penalty as normal, and the gun uses your multiple attack penalty when determining its attack bonus. Since the star gun is constantly moving and attempting to line up the appropriate shot, creatures it targets are flat-footed to the gun's attacks.
