Sun Feb 03, 2013 12:23 pm Need some Info about GH Artifacts

Hi fellow Hawkers!

I'm DM'ing the Age of Worms Campaign and somewhere there are several GH Artifacts mentioned . . . namely:

The Black Blade of Aknar Ratalla
The Tome of Black Heart
The Obsidian Eye
The Dread Forge
The Bindings of Erivatius

Can someone please give me a quick answer (or link) where I can find some more Information about the above mentioned Artifacts?

Thanks in advance!

First, try the Greyhawk Wiki link to the left of this thread.

Second, here is a very nice and informative page from grodog's website listing most of the known Greyhawk artifacts, though I couldn't find any of those you listed referenced there. Maybe this thread will motivate him to update the page. Wink

Thanks, Sir Xaris!

That's what I tried before i posted it here! ;-)

(I've bookmarked a LOT of good sites & links (like grodog's) about GH
and I'm following any activity here since 2001 . . . and since then very glad to see that CF is an ultimate Top Source for any topic about the World of Greyhawk!)

The Tome of the Black Heart is from Mordenkainen's Fantastic Adventure. It's also described in Dungeon #112.

Thanks Rasgon!

Any idea about the other Artifacts?

The Bindings of Erivatius are from "Quicksilver Hourglass" in Dungeon #123.
The Fane of Scales was part of Dungeon #106's adventure "The Black Egg."
The Obsidian Eye is from "The Obsidian Eye," an adventure in Dungeon #120.
The Dread Forge is from "The Lost Temple of Demogorgon" in Dungeon #120.
The Black Blade of Aknar Ratalla is from "Tomb of Aknar Ratalla" in Dungeon #119.

If you don't have those issues, substitute artifacts, signs, and wonders from your own campaign that your PCs will recognize. The artifacts above were mentioned mostly for the benefit of people who subscribed to Dungeon Magazine and were likely to play through those adventures with the same group.

I got most of the above from this thread and some careful googling.
