Time Splitter Battleaxe (Uncommon)

The time splitter is just the tool for an almighty adventurer who's always a little too slow to get where they need to be exactly in the nick of time. Harnessing the time dilative power of the dreamholder, this magic weapon lets its wielder swing back in time, or speed the flow of time for itself, allowing it to act more quickly. This magic weapon has 4 charges and regains 1d4 expended charges daily at dawn.

Pause: As a bonus action, you can flip the axe around anti-clockwise in your hands, expending 1 charge. Until the end of your next turn, any creature or object that moves leaves a ghostly image of itself at the moment you activated this property. You can target this ghostly image with attacks, spells, and effects as if the creature were still in that space, though the effects appear on the target wherever it is now.

Time Dilation: As a bonus action, you can tap into this weapon's chronomantic magic, casting the haste spell on yourself (no concentration required). When you do so, the GM rolls 1d3; the result (which the GM keeps secret) is how many rounds the spell lasts (ending at the end of your turn). After you activate this property, you can't do so again until the next dawn.

Versatile: This weapon can be used with one or two hands. A damage value in parentheses appears with the property—the damage when the weapon is used with two hands to make a melee attack.
