Thundering Claw of the Bear God

Thundering Claw of the Bear God is a +4 Shock Thundering Scimitar. Any creature struck by a critical hit from this scimitar or its wielder's natural attack becomes the target of lightning, as per call lightning storm spell (5d6 damage, 24 DC Reflex half). All natural attacks from both the wielder of this scimitar and the wielder's animal companion have concussive and shocking modifiers applied to them. If the wielder is wild shaped into a bear or if their animal companion is a bear, the sonic and electrical damage from their attacks is increased to 1d10.

The bear god Taranis, a relatively unknown kobold deity, bestowed this unusual scimitar to the heroic bear-riding kobold cavalier Radan, as a reward for his bravery and unshakeable faith. A few small kobold tribes in the Stolen Lands worship Taranis for teaching the kobolds agriculture and medicine, despite the lack of divine powers received by any worshipper. Additionally, the apparent lack of any knowledge of agriculture or medicine in said tribes might be a sign that faith in Taranis originated elsewhere. Small text in the Draconic language of kobolds is engraved on the sheath, saying "Swipe before bite" – one of the many obscure commandments of the Bear God.
