Holy Lance

Weapon (javelin, lance, or spear), Legendary (Requires Attunement)

“One of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear.”
-John 19:34

This weapon began life as a common spear (known as a pilum), that was wielded by a soldier named Longinus in the Roman army. Longinus was on duty during the execution of Jesus, and was ordered to pierce Jesus through the ribcage to ensure that he was dead. As a result, Longinus and his weapon were bathed in the blood of Jesus, and his eyes were opened (in some versions of the story he had previously been blind). Seeing clearly, he uttered the now-famous words: “truly, this man was God’s Son!” Longinus and his weapon parted ways that day, and both went on to have legendary stories. Longinus became a prolific evangelist, and his weapon, which later become known as the Holy Lance (sometimes also the Spear of Destiny), would pass through the hands of many heroes and adventurers in Christian history.

You gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon, and you cannot become blinded while you wield it.

When you roll a 20 on an attack roll against an evil-aligned creature, the target becomes blinded. A creature blinded in this way can only be cured by a wish spell, or by attuning to the holy lance.
