Thief Helm

It appears as a twelve inch blade dagger with Damascus
steel, light blue handle and a blue star sapphire set
on the pommel. It is a +1 bonus on attacks, +2 bonus
on damage and +3 bonus damage to anyone sitting on a
spelljamming helm. It will emit a light blue glow 10
feet radius when unsheathed from it's scabbard. When
plunged into any part of a spelljamming ship, it will
sink up to six inches deep, no matter the material of
the ship. The light and dark band of folded metal
would glow and dance while activated. It will override
any spelljamming helm currently operating on the ship.
It would take 1d6 rounds before the ship's helmsman
realize that s/he lost control of the ship and also
lost the helmsman's 360° point of view of the ship.
This blade is rumored to have been lost in the flow.


Mimic Helm

A favorite pet of an Arcane who was passing by the
area. It was trained to manipulate it's body to form
a throne. The Arcane experimented until he found a way
to pass spelljamming abilities from other creatures to
his pet. In his last voyage the Arcane was slain by a
pirate raid and the "helm" was taken as one of the
pirate's booty. The helm now operates on one of the
ships in the pirate fleet. When the mimic feels secure
that it can act undisturbed it will attack and eat the
helmsman. It attacks only when the ship is docked. The
captain and crew on the ship is very superstitious and
would not tell the new helmsman about the
disappearance of the old helmsman. The helm is very
comfortable, like old leather chair and seems to fit
and adjust to the helmsman.
