Teuvel'Khilat / Sharpness

From House of Khilat

Dates: -9,050 to -9,000 DR (50 years)

Powers

Sharpness

The edge of the blade is razor sharp. The sword is treated as +3 for determining which targets it can hit, though it gets only a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls. On a very high attack roll, it will sever an extremity—arm, leg, neck, tail, tentacle, or other extremity determined by natural (unmodified) dice roll:

  • 18-20 normal/armored
  • 19-20 larger than normal size
  • 20 solid stone or metal

Called Shot

A Called Shot can be used to select the extremity to be severed, though the typical Called Shot penalty of -4 may apply. Otherwise the DM can select the extremity severed by logic or a random roll. Called Shots may also be attempted against opponents' weapons or other items held.

Structural

Similar to an axe chopping through soft wood, the sword can chop through rock-hard materials, including hardwood, bone, stone and metal. The sword can inflict 1 point of structural damage per round.

Light

The sword can shed magical silvery blue light at will, according to the wielder's desired intensity - none, a 5-foot circle of dim illumination, a 15-foot light, or a 30-foot radius glow.

Everbright

The sword is immune to tarnishing and other discoloration, acidic corrosion, and rusting, including that caused by rust monster antennae. It can shine with a mirror like finish on command.

Interactions

Appearance

While the original craftsmanship of the blade is impeccable, the edge of the blade has been magically sharpened beyond visual perception. Very close examination of the edge reveals a warping of light extending a mere quarter inch creating a distortion like the effects of a mirage.

Rite

During the High Magic ritual to create the moonblades, Ritual of Myriad participant Myriana Moonflower, imbued the quality of Sharpness as the first power of the moonblade.
