Blades of Cara Fahd (Unique)
"The Blades are a matched set of seven daggers, each with a hilt of deep red wood with a small, dark emerald set in its pommel. Runic carvings run along both sides of the hilts, around the pommels and around the gleaming steel blades. On one side of the blades are runic symbols for the ancient ork kingdom of Cara Fahd; on the other sides are runes which, when aligned correctly, form the symbol of a group of ork adventurers that once wielded the daggers. Each of the eight wielders carried one of these daggers, until a Horror marked one of them. The Horror-marked individual betrayed his fellow group members and Cara Fahd; afterward, the other members killed the traitor and destroyed his dagger. "

Monturk's Carpet (Unique)
Monturk�s Carpet is a small, 6-by-4-foot carpet, its edges fringed in fine golden silk. The multi-colored designs and patterns on the carpet are of Theran origin, set against a striped background of blue, red, and yellow. Woven into these stripes are threads of gold and luminescent elemental air.
Monturk was a Theran wizard, a dwarf killed for throwing his lot in with the wrong Theran faction. Though he failed in his attempt to create a permanent flying carpet, he ended up creating a far more unusual object than just a flying rug.
Type : Miscellaneous
Spell Defense : 19
Maximum Rank : 6
Maximum Threads : 2
Official : Yes
Reference : Earthdawn p288
Rank 2:
The carpet is alive, but remains dormant until a thread is attached to it. The mystical energy from the thread revives the carpet.
Monturk�s Carpet can fly, but is not really strong enough to carry anyone. In addition, its temperament is ill-suited for flying-carpethood.
Monturk�s Carpet generally refuses to carry other living beings. The carpet is sometimes willing to carry letters or small packages that weigh no more than five pounds.
Monturk�s Carpet will serve its master in other ways. It can scout ahead, fight alongside its master, and use other abilities as the thread rank increases.

DEX: 5 STR: 2 TOU: 13
PER: 5 WIL: 4 CHA: 4
