MARCHOSIAS

Appears in the form of a wolf with the head of a griffin, a serpent's tail, and fire issuing from His mouth.  At the command of the Operator He assumes a human form.

In Circle:

  1. Will teach secrets of metalworking.
  2. Will give a piece or complete suit of non-magical metal Armour or Horse Armour of any type and Size (not mithril).
  3. Will identify metals, alloys and enchantments on metal Armour.
  4. Will repair damage to existing Magic metal Armour (but not restore Disenchanted enchantments).

In Triangle:

  1. Will reveal the location of specified metal items.  Pacts may be required to locate mithril items.
  2. Will reveal the location of seams of metal ores.  Pacts are required to locate mithril.
  3. Will enchant any single piece (by HitLoc Area) of metal Armour or Horse Armour to give a Magic Armour bonus of +1 to ADS.  Each +1 enchantment is cumulative with previous ones.  Pacts are required to take any enchantment beyond +2.
  4. Pact: will agree to keep the location of a specified metal item secret, unless offered a better Pact to reveal it.
  5. Pact: will enchant a whole suit of metal Armour or Horse Armour by +1 to ADS in a single session.
  6. Pact: will enchant metal Armour or Horse Armour with another type of enchantment, other than +s to ADS.
  7. Pact: will give metal Magic Armour or Horse Armour which is already enchanted.
  8. Pact: will enchant or give other miscellaneous metal Magic Items (e.g. Chimes, Horns, Horseshoes).  Will not give Items such as Rings, Wands or Staves, which may have a wide variety of enchantments (and are therefore normally obtained from the Demon Whose Aspect includes the specific enchantment desired).

Familiars:  metallic Imps.  Skilled at metalworking.  Have ADS (DL/2)+3 to +5 FRD, by metal.

Notes:

  1. The maximum Plus to ADS of a piece or suit of Armour is equal to its normal max. ADS; e.g. Leather Armour is max. +2, Plate Armour is max. +5.  Reinforced Plate may still only be enchanted to a max. of +5.  Mithril Plate could in theory be enchanted to +6, giving a max. ADS of 12.
  2. Prefers cash payment to be in mithril pieces.  Will offer better terms to Pacts if payment is made in mithril.  Is very reluctant to give mithril items, especially if payment is not in at least an equivalent weight of mithril.
  3. Dwarven Binders have extensive experience of Summoning MARCHOSIAS, Who has taught the Dwarves much of their lore of metalworking.  He will assume a dwarfish form at the command of a Dwarven Operator.
