When invoked, it toggles conflict, and when wielded grants immunity to being stunned, and grants shock resistance to the player as well as any items in open inventory.

'''Tempest''' is an [[artifact weapon]] that appears in [[EvilHack]]. It is [[unaligned]], and its [[base item]] is a [[halberd]].

==Generation==
Tempest can only be created by combining [[Mjollnir]] and [[Cleaver]] at a [[Forge (dungeon feature)|forge]] - it cannot be wished for, and will revert to its base item if left in a [[bones]] file.

==Description==
Tempest has +1d10 [[to-hit]] and deals +1d24 damage to monsters without [[shock resistance]], causing lightning to strike them - when [[pounding]] with Tempest, attacking in melee while [[riding]] or attacking in melee as a [[Centaur (starting race)|centaur]], there is also a {{frac|5}} chance of creating a 3x3 explosion of lightning centered on the target monster. While wielded, Tempest confers [[shock resistance]] and [[stun resistance]], and protects items in the wielder's inventory from shock damage.
