Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |

ok, we might as well get the voting started, so here we go.
BattleWarg
 •Gurthang, Lordless Blade 
Artifact • Hand Weapon
+3 Strength
Bearer must be Túrin. He is damage +1.
At the start of each skirmish involving Túrin, add a threat.
Response: If another Free Peoples character is about to be killed, remove all threats. Place Túrin into the dead pile.
‘”Yea, I will drink thy blood gladly, that so I may forget the blood of Beleg my master, and the blood of Brandir slain unjustly. I will slay thee swiftly.”’
The hard part was determining culture – I honestly considered  , but trying to go with a more ‘standard’ Free Peoples that Turin would probably be in. I went with because it seems to be the culture for the ‘ancient’ people and objects.
Thinking about it, Gurthang would probably be to Anglachel as Anduril is to Narsil. So I went with Anduril-like combat bonuses. But, Gurthang seemed to bring misfortune with it (although it varied as to what it was), which I felt the threats was a good representation of. You get the skirmish abilities for relatively cheap, but add a threat whenever he starts to fight.
The response ability is based off his last moments with the blade. After killing two friends, and indirectly his sister, Túrin decides to kill himself with Gurthang to stop the curse from spreading further and killing more people. This way, the player is able to make Túrin realize the problem when someone is about to be killed, and removes the threats for the cost of an additional death.
Ideally, this would be the same culture as Túrin, and the response ability would trigger off a character of that culture being killed, but without a Túrin to base it off of, this was the best solution I could come up with.
------------------------------------------------------
Shield Elf
 • Gurthang, Wand of Death 
Possesion - Hand Weapon
