around a Reliquae wherever they go, with the corpse of a departed
knight resting at its center. The outside of the reliquae is a gaudy
mélange, adorned with trinkets gathered from many Grail Knights
from across all corners of Bretonnia.

Often, peasants in the crowd will choose to join the ragtag band of
pilgrims, drawn by promises of salvation and the blessing of the
Lady. Others are drafted into the ranks through threats and near
blackmail, generously being offered an opportunity to earn the
redemption of the Lady for crimes and misdeeds that are
sometimes real but, more usually, invented by the fanatical
preachers who are ever eager to expand their flock through any

These Questing Knights are those nobles who are seeking the
attention of their patron goddess, the Lady of the Lake, in hopes of
acquiring her blessing to obtain the status of a Grail Knight. Living
a solitary existence, these men strive to prove themselves to the
Lady, performing good deeds, slaying foul beasts, and aiding the
armies of Bretonnia when in times of peril.

The quest is long, harsh and brutal, but if succeeded those knights
who prove themselves the most pure and worthy drink from the
grail given by the Lady, and if they survive, they become her Grail
Knights. These Knights are the very pinnacle of Bretonnian
chivalry, honor, and bravery. Those Questing Knights who have
drunk from the Holy Grail are blessed with the powers of the Lady
and have thus been proven worthy to become Grail Knights. To
obtain the position of a Grail Knight is the ultimate goal for all
knights, and to become one is to be the very embodiment of a holy
warrior. It is said that these knights are the greatest of mankind's
warriors to walk the earth.

“I give my body, heart and soul, to the Lady whom I seek. No

plea for help shall find me wanting. No obstacle will stand before
me. No evil will taint the lands bequeathed unto me. When the
clarion call is sounded, I will ride out and fight in the name of
Liege and Lady. That which is sacrament, I shall preserve. That
which is sublime, I will protect. That which threatens, I will
destroy, for my holy wrath will know no bounds. Honour is all.
Chivalry is all. Rejoice, for we, the Knights of Bretonnia... will be
your shield.”

A True Knight of Bretonnia
Knightly Virtue
Max: 1
Description: You may select one virtue that best exemplifies your
Knight. This Virtue cannot be retracted or upgraded. Once you
select a Virtue you are beholden to the Bretonnian Code of
Chivalry and must abide by its Seven Commandments and Rules
of Honor or suffer Sin Points:
Seven Commandments
• To serve the Lady of the Lake.
• To defend the domains entrusted to them.
• To protect the weak and fight for the right.
• Always to fight the enemies of virtue and order.
• Never to give up the fight until the foe be defeated.
• Never to break faith with a friend or ally.
• Always to display honor and courtesy.
Rules of Honor
• A knight may only fight hand-to-hand, with sword or lance; they
may not use a missile weapon.
• A knight shall always accept a challenge towards personal
combat.
• A knight shall not draw sword against their fellow Bretonnian
knights, except in trial by combat or within a tournament.
• A knight shall not allow themselves to be captured alive.
• A knight shall not flee from the enemy, nor retreat without proper
tactical cause.
Virtue of Audacity - When determining Damage use your
opponent’s Strength Bonus as your Strength Bonus if it is higher;
always determine this before any other rules modify your Strength
or Strength Bonus. Further, if your target is larger than you, and
your score a Critical, multiply all melee Damage you cause by the
number of steps larger your target is (so, 2 steps = ×2, 3 steps = ×3,
and so on); this multiplication is calculated after all modifiers are
applied.
Virtue of Confidence - Whilst engaged in combat, as an Action
you may issue a Challenge to a single opponent. Most targets of
the Challenge are not obligated to accept the Challenge (though
many do); Knights with any Virtue Talent must accept. For the
duration of the challenge, you deal +1 Damage with your melee
weapon attacks. Whilst engaged in a Challenge, you may not
Challenge a new opponent in that combat until the first is defeated
or has fled the battle. You must direct all attacks towards the
challenged opponent until either you or they are defeated.
Virtue of Discipline - It is no easier to attack you when you are
outnumbered. With this virtue, you negate any Combat Difficulty
Modifiers your opponents would gain due to outnumbering you.
This virtue does not negate any other circumstantial bonuses.
Virtue of Duty - You may pledge loyalty to up to three other
characters. When you fight alongside those characters, they each
gain a +5 bonus to their Weapon Skill characteristics. Unless all of
them are present in a battle, you take a -10 penalty to your Weapon
Skill Characteristic. This effect does not stack with other Virtue of
Duty’s. This pledge may be renounced should circumstances
forbid your ally from accompanying you, such as their death or
retirement, but it must be done under only the most serious of
circumstances and cannot be undone willingly by yourself.
7
Virtue of Empathy - You are a true hero of the common people.
Add the Etiquette (Peasantry) and Gregarious Talents to any career
you enter; moreover, your bonuses when influencing others of
lower Status are doubled (WHFRP 4E Core Rulebook Page. 51).
Other knights do not think less of you for talking with your social
inferiors. (They may think less of you for choosing this path in the
first place, however.)
Virtue of Heroism - You excel at hand-to-hand combat and your
hits can prove deadly. Whenever you roll +6 SL or more on a
successful melee hit, you may choose to forgo the additional
Damage to automatically inflict a Critical Hit instead. When using
the Virtue of Heroism in conjunction with an Impact or Damaging
Weapon, the Impact or Damaging Quality does not apply.
Virtue of the Ideal - You are considered the pinnacle of what it
means to be “Bretonnian”. You may choose 3 Bretonnian Noble
Species Skills not previously taken to give free +3 Advances to,
and a roll on the Random Talent Table for an additional Talent.
Virtue of the Impetuous Knight - Add the Berserk Charge Talent
to any career you enter; moreover, your Charge has double its
normal Movement distance when on foot.
Virtue of the Joust - You gain +20 WS when using a Lance.
Virtue of Knightly Temper - Add the Resolute Talent to any
career you enter; moreover, when you Charge, you may attack
twice as an Action.
Virtue of Noble Disdain - You gain a +20 bonus to your Weapon
Skill when fighting characters who have used a missile weapon
against you or your allies. You take a permanent -20 penalty to
your Ballistic Skill characteristic and gain Animosity (Ranged) due
to your loathing for such cowardly means, even from your allies.
Virtue of the Penitent - You may not use magic items or ride
steeds other than a horse. Any weapon you wield counts as
Magical, and the Critical Value of any Critical Hit roll made
against you is reduced by -10. A Critical Hit with a value of 0 has
no effect.
Virtue of Purity - You invoke the Gifts of the Lady with utmost
purity. You are amongst her most devout and pious of champions,
channeling her will on the battlefield like a true paladin of
Bretonnia! If you roll a successful Pray Test, you can choose to
either use your rolled SL, or the number rolled on your units die.
Virtue of Stoicism - You may re-roll any failed Fear or Terror
Test, or any failed Test to resist Intimidation. If the re-roll
succeeds, ignore the first failure.
Becoming a Questing
Knight
Virtue of the Quest - This Talent has several effects, but they only
apply whilst the character is in the career of the Questing Knight.
If they complete the career and move on or abandon it to take up a
different basic career, the effects of the Talent lapse. If the
character completes the career and becomes a Grail Knight, the
Talent is lost altogether. If they simply abandoned the Quest, they
retain the Talent receiving endless visions, and if the knight re-
enters the Questing Knight career its effects apply once more.
Description: You take a -50 penalty to your Weapon Skill
characteristic if you have a lance. Questing Knights renounce the
use of that weapon, and those with the Virtue of the Quest find it
hard to break that pledge; moreover, any worldly possessions they
hold are abandoned (aside from their adventuring gear, steed,
weaponry and armor), be it donating all their money to a nearby
Grail Chapel and renouncing any controlled land until their quest is
complete. You receive visions that direct your quest. These visions
lead you to the places where you should be, which normally means
that they lead you into danger. At any time, you may call upon
your strength of purpose to give you succor. As an Action, you
may spend a Fortune Point to heal 1d10+WPB of your own
Wounds.
Becoming a Grail Knight
The Grail Quest: The Questing Knight’s quest is a defining
feature of the how the character plays each session, both
mechanically and during roleplaying. It must provide a sufficient
challenge in order for the knight to logically complete the Questing
Knight career and to enter the Grail Knight career, and the
adventures included should have more significance than the defeat
of random fringe bands of bandits, greenskins or a monster. Once
the character has reached the point of advancement from Questing
Knight to Grail Knight, they should be put under one last
significant task by The Lady, usually consisting of 3-5 or more
sessions of story content leading to their final encounter with The
Green Knight.
Significance
There are many different types of significance which suit different
styles of play. In one example, the Questing Knight could unearth
and defeat a significant threat to the land of Bretonnia be it internal
or outside its borders:
For example: This might be a secretive underground Chaos or
Necromancy cult hiding in a major city or large town, an Orc
warlord ravaging the local populace--possibly the beginning of an
Orc WAAAGH!!!, a Bestigor gathering a war herd, or even a
Norscan raiding party being led by a potential Chosen of the Chaos
Gods unleashing carnage in their names.
Another method could have the events of the quest force the
Questing Knight to face their weaknesses or past mistakes. Thus, a
knight who failed to defend a village against an Orc attack might
find themselves placed to defend a different village from a horde
of Beastmen. On the other hand, a knight with a tendency to lose
their temper might find themselves forced to calmly negotiate
peace between two nobles or warring factions who hate each other
8
and have nothing but contempt for the Questing Knight and their
companions.
Whilst other player characters may be involved, they are
essentially following the knight on their quest. If the Questing
Knight is uncovering a major threat to the land, then it’s the sort of
thing adventurers do anyway. If they’re facing their own flaws, the
other characters may feel a bit left out, so considering bridging the
knight’s personal journey with one or more of their companions.
Perhaps the knight failed to protect one of them in a past encounter
causing them to lose an eye or an arm, or gain a Corruption Point?
The best thing to do here is talk to the players and see what they
would be happiest doing.
The Green Knight
The final part of the quest, the confrontation with the Green
Knight, is for the Questing Knight alone. The combat with the
Green Knight could be a purely symbolic gesture if the Questing
Knight has saved Bretonnia from a major threat, or it could be a
test of whether or not the knight has the skill to back up their acts
of chivalry. At this point it is up to the GM how to proceed. The
Green Knight is one of, if not the most skilled duelist in
Warhammer Fantasy, besting innumerable foes and being virtually
immortal; however, his stats don’t need to reflect this fact. The
Green Knight is a test, just like any of the tests sent by The Lady to
her loyal knights during the rest of their Quest. It is recommended,
if you stat the Green Knight, that he acts as a counter to the knight
PC, with his Characteristics, Trappings and Talents being nearly
identical. Once the duel is finished (preferably in victory) the final
step with the Grail Quest is all that remains.
The Lady of the Lake
The meeting with the Lady is a dramatic event. Lights shine from
the lake that you meet her by. The Lady, dazzlingly beautiful,
walks across water and through the mists holding the Grail for the
knight to drink, and as the character drinks from the Grail they see
the whole world in a new divine way. The Questing Knight hears
the stories of the encounters between the greatest of Bretonnia’s
heroes, including the Grail Companions, and the Green Knight and
the Lady. Their encounters include elements from the stories made
from the experiences of the Questing Knight and the party they
accompany, making it clear that the knight’s journey and
friendship is just as much a part of the same tradition since
Bretonnia’s unification. After this ceremony is concluded, the PC
may select a Grail Virtue, assuming they have purchased at least
one Knightly Virtue.
Grail Virtue
Max: 1
You may select one Grail Virtue after advancing to Grail Knight.
This virtue cannot be retracted or upgraded and requires you’ve
acquired the Knightly Virtue of the same name: You cannot
acquire the Grail Virtue of Audacity for instance without first
acquiring the Knightly Virtue of Audacity. You gain a permanent
+5 bonus to your Strength and Toughness Characteristics (this
does not count towards your Advances); moreover, you gain the
Immunity (Corruption, Disease, Fatigue, Poison) Creature Trait.
Grail Virtue of Audacity - Add the Robust Talent to any career
you enter. Attacks from larger creature’s weapons no longer gain
the Damaging or Impact Qualities against you due to their size
difference.
Grail Virtue of Confidence - Whilst you are involved in a
Challenge, all other opponents must succeed a Very Hard (-30)
Weapon Skill Test to hit you. Also, you gain a +1 to your
Toughness Bonus against your opponent during the duel, cannot be
Feared or Intimidated by your opponent and you cannot lose
Advantage if hit during the duel by enemies that are not the
challenger.
Grail Virtue of Discipline - When outnumbered in melee, the
knight gains the same Combat Difficulty Modifiers to hit as their
enemies would. This bonus applies even though their enemies are
denied the outnumbering bonus.
Grail Virtue of Duty - If you fight alongside those to whom you
are pledged, they gain +1 bonus to their Melee Attack Damage and
+10 bonus to their Strength characteristics during the Battle. If any
of those to whom you are pledged are absent, you take a -10
penalty to your Strength and Toughness characteristics. This effect
does not stack from multiple Grail Virtue of Duty’s.
Grail Virtue of Empathy - Add the Impassioned Zeal and Public
Speaker Talents to any career you enter. You may attempt an
Opposed Leadership/Willpower Test to recruit people of Brass
Status or who fall under the Peasant Class as Men-At-Arms to
accompany you in battles as a united fighting force under your
banner. The amount determined is based on your levels in Public
Speaker and the amount of people you can influence at a time plus
the SL of the Test (WHFRP 4E Core Rulebook page. 142). If you
have the Commanding Presence Talent, you may roll your
Leadership Test unopposed against those who respect your
authority. With Bless (The Lady), you may also grant any Blessing
of the Lady for all Men-At-Arms recruited as if they were a single
entity. Stats and equipment for Men-At-Arms are determined by
the GM.
attacks strike with such force they inflict a -10 WS penalty on any
foe who opposes them.
Grail Virtue of the Joust - In your hands, all lances count as
magic weapons and deal +2 additional Damage while mounted and
Charging. They also lose the Improvised Weapon effect if used on
a round you haven’t Charged, while mounted. If you wield a lance
that is already magical, its Damage is increased by +1.
Grail Virtue of Knightly Temper - When you Charge, you may
now attack three times as an Action. If the initial enemy charged
target survives all attacks, you may make one additional free attack
each turn against it until it is dead.
Grail Virtue of Noble Disdain - Double the Critical Value of any
Critical Hit you score against an opponent (ignoring Critical
Deflection) who has used missile weapons against you or your
allies. Example: rolling 25 becomes 50 on the Critical Wounds
table. If the amount exceeds 100, you instantly inflict the 100
result of the table related to that body part.
Grail Virtue of the Penitent - All Critical Wound effects have
their conditions reduced by -1. Example: gaining 2 Bleeding and 1
Blinded from Struck Forehead now only grants 1 Bleeding. This
does not apply to Critical Wound Tests that cause Conditions.
Also, you may reverse the dice of a Critical Hit made against you
if it lowers the result on the Critical Wound Table. This effect does
not stack with the -10 to a Critical Hit result provided by Virtue of
Penitent and must be decided between the two.
Grail Virtue of Purity - Add the Luck Talent to any career you
enter. During combat you may spend 1 Fortune point to gain all
Blessings (The Lady) for yourself for 6 Rounds.
Grail Virtue of Stoicism - Add the Resistance (Magic) Talent to
any career you enter. You are immune to Fear and Terror and
cannot be Intimidated. If you purchased the Fearless, Stout-
hearted, Unshakeable and other similar Talents you may refund
the XP spent if you select this Virtue.

Grail Virtue of Heroism - If you inflict Damage on an opponent,

you deal an additional number of Wounds equal to the opponent’s
Armor Points on that location. In addition, if you deal any Melee
Damage to non-metal armor, armor has no effect in Damage
reduction for the creature.

Grail Virtue of the Ideal - You gain a permanent +5 Weapon

Skill and a +5 to either your Strength or Toughness Characteristic
(this does not count towards your Advances); moreover, you gain
the Regenerate Creature Trait.

Grail Virtue of the Impetuous Knight - Add the Furious Assault

Talent to any career you enter. When Charging on foot, your melee

Lore of the Grail
Damsels are perhaps the greatest human spellcasters, capable of
mastering two Lores or more at once. This is highly unusual, for
even the most powerful Wizards of the Empire can only fully
master one lore of magic. Furthermore, the Bretonnians consider
sorcery to be a gift from the Lady of the Lake—the guardian spirit
of their land. As a result, Grail Damsels can call upon the divine
power of their goddess, allowing them to perform unique and
unearthly feats of magic they refer to as the Lore of the Grail.
The power behind the Lore of the Grail is a mystery to all except
the Fay Enchantress herself, and few are foolish enough to ask.
Most Damsels dare not question how it functions and even fewer
actively seek answers. Unlike other Lores, the Lore of the Lady
Channels from one of three existing Winds of Magic depending on
the caster’s preference in the form of Troths: Azyr (Lore of
Heavens), Ghur (Lore of Beasts) or Ghyran (Lore of Life). The
Character selects from one of these three Lores for their
Channeling Skill for Advancing through their Wizard Career,
using that Lore’s effects when casting spells from the Lore of the
Grail. The selection is based on the Troth selected below:
Much like the Knightly Vows taken by Bretonnia’s knights, Grail
Damsels often pledge “Troths” in the name of their goddess.
Troth of Wisdom (Azyr) - “With the purest of pure hearts I shall
burgeon my knowledge and spirit to face evil with the confidence,
love and comfort of the Lady. To carry out her will, the banishment
of tyranny is all. For I am her acolyte, now and forever.”
Troth of Virtue (Ghur) - “With absolute commitment to all
righteous merits, I conduct my affairs with straightforward
goodness, ever-striving to free myself from moral captivity, with
liberty from the shackles of worldly attachment, and only the
utmost dedication to my duty to the Lady.”
Troth of Protection (Ghyran) - “Should the knights of Bretonnia
answer the call of battle, their preservation and empowerment
shall be my duty, so they may ward away all that is foul and evil.
To strike down the foes of this great land of Chivalry, my
obligation to the Lady is realized.”
If you’re a Grail Damsel in the Wizard Career, you can learn an
additional Arcane Lore—like how Elves may master multiple
Arcane Lores as described in the Core Book on page 238. If you
have the Arcane Magic (Grail) Talent, you may learn one of the 8
Arcane Lores. However, you still can’t purchase your new Arcane
Magic (Lore) Talent until you have mastered Arcane Magic
(Grail) by taking at least 20 Advances in the Channelling Skill of
Azyr, Ghur or Ghyran, and learning all spells from Lore of the
Grail.

Fatigued Condition, which remain for the spell’s duration. Anyone
affected attempting to move out of the mist are incapable of doing
so—trapped within the Area of Effect—requiring the spell to be
Dispelled or for the duration to end. Those unaffected by the mist
may enter or attack into, or out of, the mist as normal; however,

Gromril Great Helm
This ornate helm was a gift from the Dwarf King Grundbar Irongut
after a group of Questing Knights broke a Greenskin siege of
Karaz-a-Karak. It bears a potent rune of protection and in its long
history has never been so much as tarnished.
Armor Type: Plate Closed Helmet.
Effect: The Gromril Great Helm functions as any other closed
plate helmet but provides 3 AP, and has the Fine and Unbreakable
Qualities. In addition to these effects the wearer of this helmet is
immune to any Critical Wounds inflicted on the Head Hit
Location. Critical strikes to the Head become normal blows. The
only exception to this is Critical Wounds caused by damage
inflicted after the Character has already been reduced to 0 Wounds.
The Rune of Protection counts the helmet as Magical and the
wearer gains +1 AP to all locations.
The Cuirass of Fortune
The Cuirass of Fortune is a remarkable piece of equipment forged
by the mad artificer Gurdilloue the Blatantly Insane. Although
madder than a bag of exceptionally angry wasps, Gurdilloue forged
this breastplate to instill luck and accuracy to its wearer. Any who
possess the armor not only find their blows more accurate, but also
enjoy the favor of maidens and oddly generous merchants.
Armor Type: Breastplate.
Effect: The Cuirass of Fortune functions as any other breastplate
but counts as Magical and grants its wearer the +1 Luck Talent
while worn. Additionally the wearer receives a bonus +10 to
Weapon Skill and Fellowship Tests.

Creature Traits, and can walk on water. Walking on water only
works on larger bodies of water that are at least 10 yards wide.
Chalice of Malfleur
This jewel-studded chalice has been fashioned in the likeness of a
skull, and will give any who continually sup from it one of two
things: salvation or death.
Trapping Type: Cup.
Effect: As a Free Action, a Character with the Arcane Magic,
Bless or Invoke Talents may drink from the cup, losing d10
Wounds ignoring Toughness Bonus and AP. For a number of
Rounds equal to the Wounds lost, the bearer gains a bonus of +40
to Language (Magick) and Pray Tests. Once the duration ends, the
bearer may attempt a Hard (-20) Consume Alcohol Test,
recovering 1 Wound lost to the chalice per +SL.
Dragon’s Claw
Cut from the corpse of the ferocious Dragon Malgrimace, the
Dragon’s Claw has been scrimshawed by the artisan Ellabeau and
enchanted by the Damsels of the Lady. Its bearer can stride
through a roaring inferno as if it were a pleasant summer breeze.
Trapping Type: Special.
Effect: The bearer and any mount they are riding are completely
immune to Damage from non-magical fire, including the breath
attacks of monsters, and ignore any Ablaze Conditions received.
Additionally, the bearer receives the Ward (6+) Creature Trait
against magical fire attacks including spells from the Lore of Fire.
Falcon-horn of Fredemund
This ancient horn was once used by the Grail Companion, Duke
Fredemund of Aquitaine. When blown, this horn emits a piercing
cry, and the skies become filled with all manner of birds, in
memory of the great man.
Trapping Type: Instrument.
Effect: As an Action, the bearer may attempt an Average (+20)
Dexterity or Very Easy Play (Horn) Test to blow the horn. Once
blown, for 2d10 Rounds, all creatures with the Flight Creature
Trait within a 200-yard Area of effect of the bearer must spend
their next Move flying to the ground as the sky fills with a
seemingly endless flock of birds, making normal flight impossible.
Once on the ground, no flying creatures may use their Flight until
the end of the duration, relying entirely on their Movement
Characteristic. The bearer must wait 1d10 hours to use the horn
again.
Insignia of the Quest
Those valiant knights who have worn the Insignia of the Quest
have almost all gone on to drink from the Grail—the Insignia is
then handed down to another Questing Knight to aid them in their
deeds.
Trapping Type: Purity Seal.
Effect: If the bearer is reduced to 0 Wounds, they instantly gain
the Ward (6+) Creature Trait. For 2d10 Rounds, the bearer
becomes immune to Psychology and ignores all modifiers from all
Critical Wounds until the end of the duration. Once the Insignia of
the Quest has been used, it takes d10 days for its effects to return.
Mane of the Purebreed
The mane of Gilles’ faithful steed is a revered relic of Bretonnia.
Strands of this precious artefact can be woven into a horse’s mane,
conferring the strength and fortitude of the Lord of all Horses onto
one of his bloodline.
Trapping Type: Special.
Effect: Once equipped, the destrier gains the Champion, Elite and
Magical Creature Traits (if they don’t have them already), and a
bonus of +10 to its Strength and Toughness. The mane may only
be equipped to a Bretonnian destrier. If equipped to any other
horse, the mane has no effect.
Mantle of Damsel Elena
Legend has it that the Grail Damsel Elena continued fighting the
Orc Warlord Aghdrac even though she had lost her sword, one eye
and most of her lifeblood. This mantle is said to retain the beat of
Elena’s fiery passion and her indomitable will to succeed despite
the most grievous injuries.
Trapping Type: Cloak.
Effect: The wearer of the mantle gains the Immunity (Poison)
Creature Trait, and if the wearer suffers a Critical Wound from an
incoming attack, they can choose to ignore the Critical Wound,
avoiding both normal Wounds lost and the Critical Wound’s effect.
This effect has three uses, but once all three uses have been spent
the wearer must wait d10 days before the mantle’s effect returns.
Ruby Goblet
The Ruby Goblet is an ancient artefact reclaimed from the castle of
the Red Duke. If so much as a drop of blood spilled in anger
touches the goblet, it throws a red-hued protective aura around its
bearers.
Trapping Type: Cup.
Effect: Once per day, the first time the bearer of the Ruby Goblet
loses Wounds from received Damage during combat, they gain the
Immunity (Non-Magical Weapons) Creature Trait for 1d10
Rounds.
Sirienne’s Locket
The damsel Sirienne was as skilled at conventional arts as she was
at the art of magic. She gifts her paramours with one of these
exquisite charms to wear about their hearts, with a likeness of the
Lady on one half of the locket and her own on the other. The fact
that more than one knight claims to own Sirienne’s Locket says
more about its creator than its bearer.
Trapping Type: Jewelry.
Effect: The bearer of the locket cannot lose more than 5 Wounds
from a non-magical attack, after Toughness Bonus and Armor
Points have been applied. This effect scales with Size modifiers, so
multiplied Damage caused by the number of steps larger a creature
is from the bearer still applies. Example: If a creature is 2 steps
15
larger than the bearer, the bearer loses no more than 10 Wounds
from its non-magical attacks. The same applies to creatures 3 steps
larger or more (15 Wounds, 20 Wounds, etc.).
The Silver Mirror
This lethal trinket is at first sight a vanity mirror, but woe betide
the magic user that underestimates its true abilities: even
reflections have power in the realm of magic.
Trapping Type: Hand Mirror.
Effect: Whilst holding up the Silver Mirror using one hand, the
bearer may Dispel spells as per the rules (Core Book. page 237).
However, the bearer may not Dispel persistent spells once cast. If
the bearer lacks the Language (Magick) Skill, they may use their
Willpower Characteristic instead. If successfully dispelling a
Damage Spell, the opposing caster then suffers Damage equal to
the bearer’s Willpower Bonus + Half the spell’s CN (rounding up),
modified by Toughness Bonus and Armor to a minimum of 1.
The Verdant Heart
This pulsing, mossy stone of unknown origin glows with the light
of life. All around the bearer, plants thrive and prosper, with acorns
sprouting into saplings and saplings into oaks even as the Verdant
Heart passes by.
Trapping Type: Special.
Effect: While in the bearer’s inventory, the Verdant Heart grants
the Character the Strider (Woodlands) Talent. Bearers with the
Arcane Magic (Life) Talent also gain the Arboreal Creature Trait
and double their bonus received to Casting and Channelling rolls
when in a rural or wilderness environment, from +10 to +20.
Token of the Damsel
On the eve of battle, noblewomen often give their favored knight a
Token of their support, such as a lock of hair, a ribbon or a brooch.
The knight, often a Lord or Paladin, will carry these tokens with
them, giving them strength in their time of need. Tokens given by
Grail Damsels often carry powerful enchantments.
Trapping Type: Varies.
Effect: While displayed or worn on the bearer’s person (not just in
their inventory), the Token of the Damsel grants the Ward (3+)
Creature Trait. The first time the Ward has been successfully
activated, the magical power of the Token is spent and no longer
has any effect.
Tress of Isoulde
Isoulde, a Damsel known for her terrifying wrath towards the foes
of Bretonnia, imbued this delicate braid of her hair with
enchantments of vengeance and righteous anger.
Trapping Type: Special.
Effect: Bearers can activate the tress’s power by holding it in one
of their hands and uttering Isoulde’s name. When this command is
spoken, magical light envelops the bearer’s arm, granting them the
Magical Creature Trait for 7 Rounds. Additionally, for the
duration, all successful strikes against targets activate the
Deathblow rule, even if the target survives (Core Book, page 160).
It then takes d10 days before the tress can be used again (though
this duration is halved if the tress is left close to an item or person
who is Blessed by the Lady).
Magic Weapons
Arandyal
One of Quenelles’ most sacred relics, Arandyal was a blessed
lance famously used by Reolus to slay the Dragon Grelmalarch. It
shone with an unearthly light and its silver vamplate was crafted to
resemble the very snarling Dragon it had killed.
Weapon Type: Lance.
Effect: The lance is Magical, masterfully silvered, and has the
Fine 2 and Penetrating Qualities. The silvering adds the Damaging
Quality when striking Undead. Any Undead run through by this
lance can never be raised with Necromancy again under normal
conditions. Struck creatures with the Unstable Trait are reduced to
0 Wounds instantly. Additionally, Arandyal emits an unusually
bright, blinding light inflicting a Blinded Condition on any struck
creature.
Charmed Shield
The front of this shield depicts a warrior being blessed by a
nameless lady. Its wielder gains protection from the sigil,
especially against foes armed with missiles. This shield once
belonged to Henri le Massif, a Grail Knight hero who followed the
renowned Bretonnian warleader Repanse de Lyonesse, fighting as
the greatest warrior within her army, the Chevaliers de Lyonesse.
Weapon Type: Shield.
Effect: The shield is Magical and has the Fine 2 and Practical
Qualities. The wielder gains the Ward (6+) Creature Trait against
non-magical ranged attacks.
Deliverer
A blessed sword of exquisite beauty, this polished blade shines
with a myriad of light, revealing the name engraved upon it.
Deliverer was once owned by Grail Knight, Sir Dagobert. A
warrior beyond mortal men, he was renowned as a Paladin of the
Realm, and with this sword had slain monsters great and foul
across the Old World. Even in old age, the knight was able to kill
an entire regiment of Stormvermin, a Rat Ogre and a Skaven
Warlord before finally falling.
Weapon Type: Hand Weapon.
Effect: The sword is Magical, has the Fine 3 and Durable 3
Qualities, and gains the Impact Quality when held by a Grail
Knight.
Durendyal
A mighty sword that shone with the Lady's favor, blood bubbled
and boiled from Durendyal’s blade, leaving it pristine after every
strike. It belonged to the legendary Grail Knight, Reolus, a veteran
of countless battles whose skill with a blade bordered on the
sublime. Considered virtually invincible by his comrades, he was
idolized throughout Bretonnia, with young Knights Errant being
brought up on tales of his exploits, hoping that they too could one
day achieve such renown and wield his blade.
Weapon Type: Hand Weapon.
Effect: The sword was blessed by the Lady herself and thus counts
as Magical, has the Unbreakable Quality, and it inflicts +1 more
Damage than a standard sword, increasing its Damage from SB+4
to SB+5. If the wielder is a Grail Knight, the sword is permanently
empowered with the Holy Sword Miracle: Durendyal ignores APs,
and if struck opponents have the Corruption, Daemonic or Undead
Creature Traits, their Toughness Bonus is ignored. Creatures with
the Unstable Trait engaged with the wielder lose 1 Wound at the
end of each turn.
16
Heartwood Lance
The Heartwood Lance is crafted from the heart of the Major Oak,
the largest tree in Bretonnia, which was shattered by lightning the
moment Gilles was struck down. Its blackened wood is covered
with tiny carvings depicting the twelve battles of Gilles and,
despite being harder than stone and diamond sharp, it is
lightweight and beautiful to behold.
Weapon Type: Lance.
Effect: The lance is Magical, and has the Lightweight, Penetrating,
Precise and Unbreakable Qualities.
Lance of Artois
This was the lance used by Folgar of Artois, who became one of
Gilles’ Grail Companions and was renowned for his skill at the
joust. The lance tip remains as sharp as it ever was, despite the
passing of time. In times of need, the lance is removed from the
Grail Chapel of St. Folgar and bestowed upon a mounted knight
for the duration of battle.
Weapon Type: Lance.
Effect: The lance is Magical, and has the Fine and Unbreakable
Qualities. The lance doubles the wielder’s Strength Bonus when
they Charge.
Morning Star of Fracasse
The mighty Morning Star of Fracasse has a hatred of magical
trickery and unholy artifacts inherited from its first owner,
Fracasse Langoustine, the Scourge of Araby. It will entangle and
rip a magic weapon from the hands of any foe, unless a spiked orb
to the head settles the matter first.
Weapon Type: Hand Weapon.
Effect: The morning star is Magical, and has the Fine and Pummel
Qualities. If you successfully attack and deal a Critical Hit on an
opponent, you Damage a struck piece of armor or shield by 2
points as well as wounding the target. Furthermore, you ignore the
Impenetrable Quality for all Critical Hits. When attacking, if you
succeed the Opposed Melee Test by +6 SL or more, any Magical
or non-Magical weapon the target used to defend themselves in the
Opposed Test is destroyed. If the weapon has the Unbreakable
Quality, this effect is ignored.
Orcbane Shield
The Orcbane Shield has a huge and bloody maw sculpted to its
front, and has become an icon of terror and confusion for the
Greenskin tribes that assail Bretonnia.
Weapon Type: Shield.
Effect: The shield is Magical and has the Durable 3 and Fine
Qualities. Any Greenskins with Line of Sight to this shield are
subject to Terror 1. Greenskins who succeed their Test or
overcome their Fear are then immediately subject to their
Animosity (Greenskins) Psychology.
Silver Lance of the Blessed
Forged by Gilles himself, the Silver Lance of the Blessed can only
be carried by one who is completely pure of heart. To grasp the
lance is said to be the true test of courage and spiritual strength, for
an aspirant who is found wanting will be consumed by searing
white flame.
Weapon Type: Lance.
Effect: The lance is Magical, and has the Damaging, Fine 3 and
Unbreakable Qualities. The Character must have no Sin Points or
Mutations to wield the Silver Lance of the Blessed. If wielded by
one who is unworthy (determined by the GM) they gain an Ablaze
Condition that ignores AP and Toughness Bonus. The wielder
suffers no penalties for Called Shots. Additionally, once per
Encounter, rather than roll the result of a Melee Test, the wielder
may choose the number instead (as if they spent a Resilience), and
win any Opposed Weapon Skill Test with the lance by at least 1
SL. This effect extends into Deathblows past the initial target.
Sword of Heroes
The mighty Sword of Heroes has powerful enchantments against
evil bound into it. Forged under the midsummer sun and quenched
in manticore's blood, its long and bloody history has seen its
wielders kill enough fantastical creatures to fill Leoncoeur’s
menagerie many times over.
Weapon Type: Hand Weapon.
Effect: The sword is Magical and has the Fine 3 and Unbreakable
Qualities. The Sword of Heroes deals +Fellowship Bonus Damage
and ignores the Toughness Bonus of any creature with the
Daemonic or Undead Creature Traits.
Sword of Lyonesse
The Sword of Lyonesse is a mighty relic warblade—the sword of a
devout and honorable knight of olden times. In 2007 IC, led to the
sword by the Lady herself, the legendary Repanse de Lyonesse
found it in her village’s mystical Grail Chapel. She broke open its
reliquary and took up the ancient sword within. She had been
guided well, for the sword had great power over enemy magic and
slayed many a servant of Chaos.
Weapon Type: Bretonnian Longsword.
Effect: This Bretonnian longsword is Magical, has the Fine and
Unbreakable Qualities, and it inflicts +2 more Damage than a
standard Bretonnian longsword, increasing its Damage from SB+6
to SB+8. Additionally, the wielder gains the Magic Resistance (4)
Creature Trait while the Sword of Lyonesse is in their inventory.
Sword of the Lady’s Champion
On the eve of battle, a Grail Knight that kneels to pray beside a
body of still water may be rewarded with the vision of a pale,
slender hand emerging from the water, with the beautiful blade
known as the Sword of the Lady’s Champion grasped within its
delicate fingers.
Weapon Type: Hand Weapon.
Effect: The sword was blessed by the Lady herself and thus counts
as Magical and has the Damaging Quality. The wielder is
permanently blessed with the Blessing of Might, gaining +10
Strength. Additionally, when determining Damage with this sword
use your opponent’s Toughness Bonus as your Strength Bonus if it
is higher; always determine this before any other rules modify your
Strength or Strength Bonus.
Sword of the Quest
The Sword of the Quest, a large hand-and-a-half sword, has been
passed down from knight to knight, and has been held by such
figures as Percival of Lyonesse and Saint Balgar of Carcassonne. It
is most often seen in the hands of Questing Knights.
Weapon Type: Hand Weapon.
Effect: The sword is Magical, has the Defensive and Fine
Qualities, and it ignores all APs.
The Grail Shield
The Grail Shield has been blessed by each of the Grail
Companions. It is said that its bearer, always a Grail Knight, will
not grow a day older whilst it is in their possession.
17
Weapon Type: Shield.
Effect: The shield is Magical, and all Critical Wounds caused by
an odd number to hit you, such as 11 or 33, are ignored. If the
wielder is a Grail Knight, they and gain the Ward (8+) Creature
Trait while the shield is equipped, and will never age past the point
they first received the shield so long as it remains in their
possession.
The Shattered Shield of Reolus
Wielded by Reolus during his fight against the Devil Troll of
Carcassonne, the “Shattered Shield” was cloven in two by the
mighty beast before its inevitable death. Despite the damage done
to it, the magnificent heraldry upon its face remained clear. The
shield was recovered by Reolus’s loyal Battle Pilgrims, to be
carried into battle as the holiest of their artifacts.
Weapon Type: Shield.
Effect: The shield is Magical. In the hands of anyone not in the
Warrior Class, the shield has the Shield 1 Quality and the Ugly
Flaw. In the hands of a Grail Knight, it gains the Unbreakable
Quality, the Shield Quality is increased from 2 to 4 and the
Undamaging Flaw is removed.
The Sword of Swift Slaying
A sword of silver that never dims. When used in anger, the sword
arm of its owner darts forth before an opponent can even raise their
guard. Those blessed by the Lady are said to receive an even
greater gift, reaching ground speeds that rival the nimble Wood
Elves of Athel Loren.
Weapon Type: Hand Weapon.
Effect: The sword is Magical, and has the Fast and Fine 2
Qualities. The sword strikes with such speed that the wielder gains
one Free Attack per Round. If the wielder is a Grail Knight, they
gain the Fast Creature Trait while the sword is drawn.
The Sword of Virtue
The Sword of Virtue is a huge two-handed sword, property of the
Grail Chapel of Malmont. It seems to have been created for
battling Dragons and other large monsters. As soon as a dragon
captures a maiden, this sword always comes with a wielder to
challenge it in its lair without any fear, and no damsel shall be
abandoned as a meal for a litter of dragonlings as long as this
powerful sword is in the area.
Weapon Type: Bretonnian Longsword.
Effect: This Bretonnian longsword is Magical, and has the Fine,
Penetrating, and Unbreakable Qualities. Strikes made with the
sword ignore the Toughness Bonus of dragons and wyverns.
Additionally, the wielder gains the Belligerent Creature Trait while
the sword is drawn.
Wyrmlance
Legend has it the lance of Duke Beligulf Fearnought was plunged
into the maw of the Dragon Malifex just as it was about to spout a
great torrent of flame. It is said to have absorbed the power of the
Dragon’s breath and, by uttering the name of the slain Dragon, the
mounted wielder may unleash this fire at will.
Weapon Type: Lance.
Effect: The lance is Magical and allows its bearer to breathe fire
upon enemies whenever the name of the slain Dragon, Malifex, is
uttered. For the cost of 2 Advantage, the lance’s power can activate
as a Free Attack as if it had the Breath Creature Trait (see page
338) with Breath +15 (Fire) fired from its tip. The wielder’s
Weapon Skill Bonus is used for determining the Breath’s Range
and Area of Effect instead of Toughness Bonus or Strength Bonus.

Artois Boars
“Artois Boars are Wild Boars that have been touched by Chaos.
Whilst they are found throughout the Forest of Arden, they have
never been seen beyond it, and most are found within the dukedom
of Artois. They are even more bad-tempered than normal Wild
Boars and are entirely carnivorous, preferring to eat living prey.
Prey that screams and curses whilst it is being eaten is particularly
popular. Peasants say if you can stay still and quiet whilst the boar
is eating you, it will lose interest. Peasants say a lot of stupid
things.
Artois Boars are around five feet high at the shoulder, and
normally appear fat. They are, however, extremely fast and strong.
Many have mutations, but the race is stable overall. “
