Keep On The Borderlands


Great magical monsters encountered by the order.

A blue dragon of middling size and age. Took head and portions of hide, blood and scales.

  • Potion of lightning resistance. 1000gp. (blood and brain ichor mixed with throat glands).
  • Reputed properties. Brain (intact) for production of Dragon control potions.
  • Hide and scales can be used to make superior leather and scale armour (non-magical).
  • Teeth useful for scroll inks, some basic powders/potions (ingredient).

An ancient red dragon.

  • Ancient Red dragon heart major ingredient for con increase potion.
  • Reputed properties as above.

A Wyvern (adult).

  • Poison pouch from tail. An all-purpose anti-venom. 1000 gp in addition to the wyvern parts to produce, but will have 3 doses.

Trolls.

  • A pint of blood. Potions of regeneration. For the duration of the potion (an hour or so) the character regenerates like a troll. The potions cost 1500gp


Other magics

  • Dwarves can create magic weapons using dust of adamant. (Expensive, must be a superior quality weapon). This probably involves blessing from a cleric.

(This actually sounds like a ritual in which a heroes favorite heirloom weapon becomes magic - maybe that's part of it.)
