Iktomi’s Shaper Necklace
As an Instant Action (does not use up either the wearer’s Free or Standard Action for the round), the wearer may polymorph into one of four types of Elemental. While polymorphed into an elemental, the character may cast Spells (but not scrolls), speak, and gains the following abilities, based on the type of Elemental chosen:
Elemental | Benefit |
Air | 10 damage reduction from Shock & all melee damage* you deal is magical Shock |
Earth | 10 damage reduction from Sonic & all melee damage* you deal is magical Sonic |
Fire | 10 damage reduction from Fire & all melee damage* you deal is magical Fire |
Ice | 10 damage reduction from Cold & all melee damage* you deal is magical Cold |
*This includes all “special” melee damage. E.g., if the druid’s pre-polymorphed melee attacks included 3 Cold damage, that 3 Cold gets converted to 3 Fire if polymorphed into a fire elemental.
The Damage Reduction granted by this item is only in effect while the character is in elemental form. When the character is in human(oid) form or polymorphed into something that is not an elemental, this item does not grant DR.
Elemental forms do not grant any kind special movement. E.g., assuming the form of an air elemental does not grant the ability to fly.
In addition, the wearer may use any polymorph potion as an Instant Action–without having to turn in the potion token. Even when polymorphed into a potion-based creature, the wearer can cast spells and speak. If desired, the wearer may use a trinket instead of a potion. Using a trinket in this manner does not count toward the once per game use of that specific trinket token.
One may not polymorph into more than one creature (nor into different elemental sub-types) per room, but transforming into and out of the same creature more than once per room is allowed–assuming one has the means to do so.
Elemental forms, like standard polymorphing achieved via potion, do not persist between rooms. When the room ends, so does the polymorph.
Iktomi’s Shaper Necklace does not grant the druid-summoner sub-class the ability to summon an elemental.
Elemental form attacks may be considered either 1-handed or 2-handed, but not both. The handedness bonuses recorded on the party card are used when you are transformed. If your stats on the party card include bonuses for 1-handed melee attacks/damage, you retain those when you transform. If your stats on the party card include bonuses for 2-handed melee attacks/damage, you retain those when you transform. You may not simultaneously benefit from 1H and 2H bonuses.
For game mechanic purposes, elemental form damage is considered magical.
The “weapon” stats listed in the stat block below apply only when the character is polymorphed into an elemental.
