Cauthooj Bagpipes

The main portion of this set of bagpipes is fashioned from the dried skin of a cauthooj, with the feathers still attached. The bird's vocal cords are crafted into the instrument's reeds. The pipes grant a +2 item bonus to Performance checks while playing music with them.

Trigger A creature within 30 feet attempts a melee Strike against you or an ally

Effect You let loose a staccato chirp from the pipes that appears to come from somewhere else. The triggering creature must attempt a DC 31 Will save. On a failure, the creature redirects the Strike to another creature of your choice within reach of the melee Strike. If no other creatures are within range, the affected creature instead takes a –2 penalty to the Strike.

Craft Requirements The initial raw materials must include the skin and vocal cords of a cauthooj.
