Thorn Brush

This +2 greater striking holy shifting morningstar has a head that appears to be a deep crimson metal rose with thorny petals. When you activate a thorn brush to Shift Weapon, you can cause it to take the shape of a painter's brush. While in this shape, it can't be used as a weapon (it can still be activated to Shift Weapon back into a morningstar), but it does grant a +2 item bonus to Crafting checks to paint or otherwise use the tool while creating artwork.
