=== Azure Flame ===
 
Upon command, the sword becomes sheathed in flickering sky blue flame, which can be adjusted in intensity from as small as a candle to the brightest of a flaming torch. The illumination ranges from 5’ to 15' radius. The blue light does not inhibit infra vision, or other light properties such as moonlight or sunlight.
 
When the spell sheath is activated, the flames takes on the properties of the sheath energy type.  Fire energy generates a blue guttering torch like flame. Electricity emits intense blue lightning bolts.
 
=== Spell Sheath ===
The wielder can cast spells into the blade, sacrificing their magical power to enhance the sword. The spells can be cast from memory or device. The type of spell determines the magical sheath power as indicated below. The sword can only be enhanced with one sacrificed spell at a time, with a new spell immediately replacing the benefits of the previous.
<blockquote>
==== Energy Sheath ====
If the sacrificed spell dealt damage of a particular energy type, the blade radiates that energy type, including any special properties (moonlight affecting lycanthropes, etc.). If the spell has more than one energy type, the wielder selects which type the sword radiates at the time the spell is cast. Subsequent spells with energy types immediately replace the effects of the previous spell. The energy radiated lasts for as many rounds as the spell level plus an additional round for every 3 class levels of the spellcaster. Every successful melee attack delivers an additional 1d6 of damage of that energy type, while a critical hit will deliver 1d10 instead.


Common energy types include: Cold, Electric, Fire, Negative, Positive, Sonic

It can strike targets on the Astral, Ethereal, Shadow and various pocket dimensions, so long as the target is subject to physical attack on their plane of existence. Attacks are made with a penalty of one magical plus from the sword.

When this power is activated, the blade is clearly visible and tangible on the target’s plane of existence. If the opponent can make attacks into the wielder’s plane, any penalty they may have had due to the wielder being a hidden opponent is reduced by half, so a -4 penalty against invisible targets is treated as -2 instead.
If the sacrificed spell doesn’t have a particular energy type, the sword’s bonus to hit increases by +1 per spell level of the sacrificed spell. The bonus to hit decreases each round until it reaches +1 which will last an additional round for every 3 levels of the caster.  The wielder also gains an initiative bonus of +1 for as long a the blade retains the bonus to hit.

Powers

Planar

The sword gains magic bonuses when it visits planes beyond the Prime Material Plane. Its spell like powers function at full effect, operating within the limits of any permanent planar restrictions.

The blade gains bonuses on the prime material plane when used against extra-planar creatures.

  • +1 vs Inner Plane Opponents
  • +2 vs Outer Plane Opponents
  • +3 vs Astral or Ethereal Plane Opponents

Similar to the powers of a cockatrice, the magic of the blade can breach the barriers between planes to attack extra-planar opponents. It can strike targets on the Astral, Ethereal, Shadow and various pocket dimensions, so long as the target is subject to physical attack on their plane of existence. Attacks are made with a penalty of one magical plus from the sword.

When this power is activated, the blade is clearly visible and tangible on the target’s plane of existence. If the opponent can make attacks into the wielder’s plane, any penalty they may have had due to the wielder being a hidden opponent is reduced by half, so a -4 penalty against invisible targets is treated as -2 instead.

Planar Direction

The sword can orient the wielder to know what direction to travel.

Appearance

Rune

Flame - on front. 


Feature

The blade from the cross guard to the tip has changed to clear crystal sapphire, while retaining the properties, strength and flexibility of the original metal construction. The details of the craftsmanship with intricate structures are clearly visible in the crystalline composition of the blade, including the circles with inset stars and metallic laminates. The quarter moon circlets have a faint glow and the stars shimmer like star sapphires in the sun.

Rite

Lord Belsilvar

gathered 3 Starsingers and 7 Knights of the 7th Order of the Seven Sacred Mysteries, along with the silver dragon Khilat. The ceremony was held in an ancient moon temple high in the Star Mounts, under a bright full moon and clear sky in a field of Motes of Moonlight and a Moonbeam spell. The Starsingers called Moonfire onto the alter to bathe Lord Elian and the sword. Each of the knights called forth Moon Blade spells in the shapes of their preferred swords and dubbed Lord Elian and the Moonblade which absorbed each of the seven Moon Blade spells. Lord Elian cast Detect Spirits at the same moment his own spirit was bound to the blade and he watched it pass into the moonstone.
