Session 4 Journal

Canon Change: Calibration Hammer (arcane-channeled)

Brandon approved at the table on 2026-05-16. The +1 Calibration Hammer now resolves as an arcane-channel attack:

• To hit: +6 INT (unchanged, Battle Smith uses INT on magic weapons).
• Damage type: force (was bludgeoning).
• Damage dice: 1d8+4 one-handed, 1d10+4 two-handed (unchanged).
• Rationale: the strike is powered by arcane focus channeled through the hammer, not muscle. Damage type follows the source.

Treated as a homebrew infusion / re-flavor sitting on the weapon. Counts against the active-infusion budget alongside whatever else is slotted (Enhanced Weapon, or the Boots of Elvenkind / Slippers of Spider Climbing variants in play this session).

Arc Declared: Path to Godhood (Knowledge)

At the table this session, Dorian declared his long arc: positioning himself, over the rest of the campaign, to ascend as a god of knowledge. Full arc doc, levers, and open questions in arc-godhood.

The short version: document everything, catalogue every divine artifact the party touches, understand the lifting mechanism under Weber Hollows, learn what the Soul Core actually is, mentor anyone the party picks up, and treat every divine being as someone to interview rather than worship.
