Powers

Strength Stealing

The sword can drain 1 point of strength per hit. Once strength reaches 0, the opponent goes unconcious.

Esterel

Esterel can no longer transform into a creature form, but can manifest as an illusory semi corporeal creature able to lift and carry objects up to 5 lbs weight. He typically favors the form of a golden faerie dragon, but can assume the shape of any creature up to man size. Esterel is highly intelligent (13) and can communicate by telepathy or through his illusory projection. His projection is 60% resistant to magic.

Esterel's spirit is bound to Chiliad's spirit, and serves as the spirit powering the moonblade in Chiliad's place. When Chiliad grows weak, so does Esterel, and should Chiliad die, he believes he will too. His alignment has shifted to Neutral Good. While he recognizes that each hit in melee combat feeds his strength, he views it as a kindness that his opponent need not be slain.

Illusions

Esterel can cast 1st and 2nd level illusion spells, 1 per round, at will and nearly instantaneously.

Sword Power

Esterel can add a power to the blade. It takes Esterel one week to manifest a particular power. If a new power is selected, the existing power ceases immediately while the new power is building up. A single power can be selected from the powers for intelligent swords, or a single quality can be added from a variety of non-unique blades.

Anything

Once every 3 months, the moonblade can transform to become any type of non-unique sword for 1 turn. All other powers of the blade become dormant during the transformation. Specific sword types can't be repeated within a year's time.
