Khilat Moonblade - Eldrin

From House of Khilat

Dates: -8,406 to - DR (years)

Powers

Storm Sword

On command, the blade can be sheathed in impressive snarling and crackling purple bolts of electrical energy. When the blade strikes metal or stone, it releases a shower of purple sparks. This ability is patterned after the standard Cormanthan storm sword.

Successful hits deliver an additional 1d6 of electrical damage. On a critical hit, an additional 1d10 electrical damage can be delivered, regardless of whether the shock power has been activated.

The wielder is immune to lightning attacks. The sword acts as a lightning rod, drawing in the full force of a bolt, including all forked lightning. The sword can either completely absorb the bolt, recharging the lightning bolt capacity, or redirect the full force of the strike during the same round, sending it in the direction that the sword is pointed.



When the blade is sheathed in electrical energy, it can be used to breach any known magical barrier including prismatic magic one layer per blow with no effect on the wielder or blade.

Lightning Bolt

When charged, the sword can generate bolts of lightning from the sword tip; one per round for up to one hour duration. The bolts fork 10 feet from the tip, branching out to a 40 foot width and streaking another 100 feet, striking anything in their path. Normally, each bolt delivers 9d6 points of damage, but the amount is doubled to 9d12 damage when a storm is in the immediate area. The sword recharges itself without assistance over the course of two weeks, but can be recharged by absorbing bolts of lightning equivalent to a total of at least 80d6 or 70d8. 



Call Lightning

Once per week, while in the presence of a storm, the wielder can call lightning strikes down from the storm. One bolt per turn for 12 turns can be called, delivering 14d8 damage each. If 5 bolts are called down to strike the sword, it effectively recharges the lightning bolt capability of the blade.

Interactions

  • Chromatic Blade - Lightning can be generated in any color of the rainbow.
  • Moonblade - Activating the Moon Blade power cancels the shocking power.
  • Sonic - The critical hit ability of thunderous crack sonic damage can be combined with the shock damage.
