Slumbering Dragon's Wrath Hooked Shortspear (Fizban's Treasury of Dragons)

uncommon · Melee Weapon 2014 · Requires Attunement

The Hooked Shortspear can be found in Out of the Abyss, page 224.

This weapon is decorated with dragon heads, claws, wings, scales, or Draconic letters. When it steeps in a dragon's hoard, it absorbs the energy of the dragon's breath weapon and deals damage of that type with its special properties.

Whenever you roll a 20 on your attack roll with this weapon, each creature of your choice within 5 feet of the target takes 5 damage of the type dealt by the dragon's breath weapon.

On a hit with this weapon, the wielder can forgo dealing damage and attempt to trip the target, in which case the target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or fall prone. The DC is 8 + the wielder's Strength modifier + the wielder's proficiency bonus.

Light

A light weapon is small and easy to handle, making it ideal for use when fighting with two weapons.
