Lyre of Building

A beautifully crafted musical instrument which, when played by a skilled musician, has magical abilities of construction.

• Protecting buildings: Once per day, playing the proper chords (treat as a command word) negates the effects of attacks made against a building or construction. e.g. this can negate the powers of a horn of blasting (see Old-School Essentials Classic Fantasy) or damage from siege weapons.

• Construction: Once per week, playing the proper chords (treat as a command word) allows buildings to be magically constructed. Construction work equivalent to that of 100 humans over 3 days occurs in merely 3 turns.

• If disturbed while playing: There is a 50% chance of the effects of the lyre being negated.
