Special Material: Greenwood
HP/inch as wood; Hardness as wood; Cost To determine the price of a greenwood item, use the original weight but add 50 GP per pound to the price of a masterwork version of that item. Items made from darkwood cannot be made into greenwood.
Description
The secret of greenwood lies in its harvesting. Each length is taken, with leaves still attached, from a tree animated by a treant and cut with care to avoid the death of the tree. A dryad then speaks to and shapes the wood, coaxing the living green of the leaves into the grain of the wood itself. The resulting wood remains alive as long as it is doused with at least one gallon of water (plus 1 gallon for every 10 pounds of the item's weight) once per week and allowed to rest for an hour in contact with fertile soil. Any wooden or mostly wooden item (such as a bow or spear) made from greenwood is considered a masterwork item. Items not normally made of wood or only partially of wood (such as a battleaxe or a mace) either cannot be made from greenwood or do not gain any special benefit from being made of greenwood.

When damp and in contact with fertile soil, living greenwood heals damage to itself at a rate of 1 hit point per hour, even repairing breaks and regrowing missing pieces. If the weapon has the broken condition, it is repaired during the first hour of contact with fertile soil. Greenwood items take only one-quarter damage from fire.

Greenwood can be altered or enhanced with wood-shaping magic such as ironwood, shape wood, and warp wood. The duration of any such effect on a greenwood item is doubled.

Weeping Demon

Aura strong Blood; CL 12
Slot armor; Price 76,180 gp; Weight 20 lbs.
Description
The weeping demon is a +4 studded leather armor that bears the shape of a face on its front, as if the whole thing were crafted from the hide of an enormous demonic creature.

It is possible for the wearer of the weeping demon armor to feed blood to the demonic face on the front of the armor; if the wearer has scored a critical hit or dealt bleed damage to a target or is suffering bleed damage themselves, they can feed the blood on their weapon or from their bleeding body to the armor as a standard action, or they can cut themselves with a slashing or piercing weapon and feed it to the armor as a full-round action, dealing 1d4 damage to themselves in the process. Feeding blood to the armor consumes the blood; this ability can be used as often as the wearer desires, but only if they can produce new fresh blood for each use.

When the weeping demon is fed blood in this manner, it cries blood from its eyes and wails an otherworldly shriek for 12 rounds; stealth becomes all but impossible, and all living creatures who come within 60 ft. of the wearer (except for the wearer itself) must pass a DC 16 Fortitude save or begin to cry blood from their own eyes; They become blinded until the end of the armor’s effect duration. Targets who come within 60 ft. of the target during their turn or begin their turn within this area must make this save, and creatures who pass their save or continue to remain within the affected area must make new saves on future rounds.

The wearer of the shield can use the Summon Spirit advanced Death talent upon the soul trapped within the shield; this can be done at will and requires only a full-round action rather than an hour, and is always successful. The wearer of souleater can return the summoned soul to the shield or release it into the afterlife as a free action.

Stopgap

Aura moderate Creation and Enhancement; CL 10
Slot shield; Price 10,170 gp; Weight 5 lbs.
Description
Stopgap is a +2 heavy steel shield which can, upon command, grow to an increased size. The shield becomes a 10 ft. by 10 ft. wall that is 1 inch thick; if it is in a space where it cannot grow to its full size, then it grows to the largest size that it can, completely plugging the allotted space.

It is possible to use the shield’s wall form to attack creatures in one of two ways; either by flattening them underneath the wall when it is created, or by attempting to trap them with the edge of the shield by pushing them against a wall when the shield grows to its full size and plugs the available space. In both cases any creatures within the affected area are allowed a DC 15 Reflex save to avoid being struck. If they fail they either become trapped by the shield’s wall against another wall (unable to move but still able to act), or suffer 6d8 bludgeoning damage from the falling wall and become prone; they are trapped under the wall and cannot move, but can escape through a DC 20 Escape Artist check.

When the shield has grown into a wall, it is virtually immovable. It has 14 hardness and 25 hp, and a break DC of 28.

A creature must be wearing stopgap in order to grow or shrink the shield (a standard action either way). If the wearer removes the shield once it has been grown it remains in its wall form until someone straps the shield on and commands the shield to shrink. If the shield is broken while in wall form, it remains broken when returned to its shield form and cannot return to its wall form until repaired.

Wiki Note: Other information on enchanting with this effect was not provided. We suggest Craft Magical Arms and Armor as the feat, CL 5th, and the Dark sphere as a prerequisite.

Spell Storing

This armor allows a spellcaster to store within it a single touch spell of up to 3rd level, or a sphere effect that does not cost a spell point. Anytime a creature hits the wearer with a melee attack or melee touch attack, the armor can cast the spell or sphere effect on that creature as a immediate action if the wearer desires. Once the magical effect has been cast from the armor, a caster can cast into it any other targeted touch spell of up to 3rd level or sphere effect that does not cost a spell point. The armor magically imparts to the wielder the name of the magical effect currently stored within it. A randomly rolled suit of spell storing armor has a 50% chance to have a magical effect stored in it already. Spell storing armor emits a strong aura of the Destruction sphere, plus the aura of the magic stored within.
