The '''Hammer of Phaestus''' is the chosen tool of [[Phaestus]], the Great Smith.
At one point in history the hammer housed the essence of its master; Phaestus having been forcibly sealed within by [[Varian]] to mask His presence in creation. The hammer fell from the heavens in a large spectacle of light, and commenced a game where various factions would steal the relic back and forth. Prophetic dreams of a grand convocation of magi and a unicorn centring on the hammer were given to the holders of the hammer, which the [[Crystalline Circle|Magi]] of [[Shallam]] and the [[Merchants of the Crown|Sorcerers]] of [[Hashan]] attempted. The first attempt failed due to disorganization, the second resulted in the theft of the hammer by an [[The Occultists|Occultist]], leading to a raid on [[Ashtan]] to recover it. A third attempt was nearly organized but halted when an Ashtani [[Infernals (guild)|Infernal]] reclaimed it and forced the concession of allowing the [[Warlocks]] to participate in the matter. With all three magi guilds in attendance the ritual was performed, their concerted power with that of [[Agatheis]] through the unicorn's horn, released Phaestus from the hammer's confines.
Later Phaestus would use his hammer to sheer a mountain from the [[Vashnars]], that would later become the island of [[Mhaldor]].
