Khilat Moonblade - Halel

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

Powers

Dreamwarning

The sword's owner receives a prophetic dream warning of danger within one day. The pommel stone will glow blue if danger is imminent, starting pale when the danger is within a turn and moving towards brilliant blue as it gets closer. The glow can be cancelled by the wielder at will.



Danger Sense

Attempts to surprise the wielder are reduced by 5 on a d6 or 8 on a d10. 



Singing

The sword is also imbued with Elven and Dragon melody that can be called forth on command, but often times the sword sings of its own accord, particularly when its owner is sleeping and dreaming. The words of the melody can only be heard in the owner’s dreams.



Interactions

• Moonblade - Spending 2 hours within a radius of motes of moonlight allows the wielder to cast divination to garner one piece of advice for any event in the coming 7 days. Spending the time in revere or sleep allows for up to two pieces of advice each hour in the motes, but the information is hazier due to the dream state. 


• Speed - The wielder is only surprised on a 1.

Appearance

Rune

Moon - on front. 


Feature

A layer of silver over a wider layer of blue mithral plating on the sword's cutting edge creates a halo effect around the darkmetal blade core. The moonglow of the blade comes from the shiny halo area and the moonstone. Near the base of the blade, a couple of inches above the cross guard, the blade is flared in a circle with the image of the moon. Imbedded in the blade to be visible from both sides, just below the moon circle, is a 1/2 inch round clear moonstone that always displays an image of the moon in its current phase. 


Rite

When the Silver Dragon Khilat chose to ascend to serve Bahumat at the twilight of his life, he took the magic ring that contained the soul of his first wife, the Silver Dragon Halel, and sang a draconic ballad as part of the ritual to ascend. Lady Lyassa sang with him and the spirit of Halel who was released during the magic of Khilat's ascension song. Lady Lyassa, with the help of several high mages of the Khilat family, created a link between the moonblade and the ascending spirits. This seemed to be the best way for Khilat and Halel to continue to guide their elven and dragon family, since the elves do not establish a clan lair.
