Broiling Axe
Weapon (greataxe), Rare (requires attunement)

While you are wielding the greataxe and attuned to it, you can access the following properties.

Magic Weapon. You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon.
Steam Powered. The greataxe has 6 charges. The greataxe regains all expended charges daily at dawn.
Steam Propulsion. You can use an action to expend 2 charges and activate the greataxe’s release valve. A burst of steam from the greataxe propels you forward 10 feet in a straight line. If your movement pushes you into a creature, that creature must make a DC 15 strength saving throw or is knocked prone. A creature whose size is huge or larger is immune to this effect.
Steam Scorcher. When you successfully deal damage with this weapon, you can expend 1 charge to release a jet of broiling steam from the blade's edge, dealing an additional 1d10 fire damage to the target creature.

A gargantuan axe of arcane infused titanium. The length of the axe is fitted with ports that draw moisture from the air and travel through heated tubes. This compresses in the head of the weapon as broiling steam. A dual sided trigger on the haft controls the steam released from the bladed edge. Oft chosen as a cruel weapon for the criminal underbelly of wastelands - the scars left behind from the scorching steam send a brutal message.
