Weapon (great axe), unique (requires attunement by a creature proficient with great axes)
“Hyf æce” (Hive Cleaver in the ancient tongue) is a massive axe that resembles a common hive tool used by apiarists but is scaled up to enormous proportions. It’s forged to serve as both a weapon and a utility tool, making it a versatile piece of equipment in the hands of a skilled warrior.
Properties. Hyf æce functions as a great axe, dealing 1d12 slashing damage, plus 1d4 poison damage. It is magical and has +1 to attack rolls. On a hit, the target must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute.
Special Feature: Hook. You can use one of your actions to use the hooked end of the Hive Tool to trip an opponent and knock them prone.
Special Feature: Buzzing Strike. If you score a critical hit with the Hive Cleaver, the weapon emits a faint buzzing sound, and the target must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or become distracted by the noise. A distracted creature has disadvantage on the next attack roll it makes before the end of its next turn.
