On the fifteenth day of October, in the first recorded year, this heavy-duty crowbar was forged within the roaring fires of Ironhold. It was part of a massive production, designed as a standard tool for the laborers tirelessly mining the Bukhara Spires. During the golden age of commerce, it served its initial purpose, helping extract precious resources and enduring the harsh conditions of the mines.
This early exposure to the deep earth and the inherent raw energies of the Spires began to subtly imbue the metal. Its robust design was a testament to the era's engineering, built to withstand immense stress. As the golden age waned, a far darker chapter began with the eruption of the Shadow War.
With gateways corrupted and society fractured, this once-humble mining tool was repurposed by the Unchained, an anti-slavery movement led by Redevus Branch. It became an instrument of liberation, used to pry open the cruel cages of the enslaved. Through this period of conflict and chaos, likely near the volatile regions of Ironhold, it gained further exposure to untamed Wild Magic, leaving a nascent chaotic residue within its very core.
Following the devastating war, this specific crowbar found its way into the hands of scavengers. They discovered it amidst the desolate ruins of Highborne Summit, a silent testament to the conflict's toll. For decades thereafter, it endured relentless abuse, becoming an indispensable tool for their perilous expeditions.
It was used to crack open ancient, forgotten chests in the eerie depths of the Shadowfell, and to leverage stubborn, colossal stone doors in the treacherous Iron Mountain. Though technically a standard implement, these countless experiences solidified the latent chaotic residue within its metal. Having served its purpose for countless years, enduring war, freedom, and decades of plunder, the crowbar now lies discarded, its powerful history unseen.
