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.

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

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. 

 



Motes of Moonlight

seven times a day, the sword can generate 50 glowing silvery motes of pale moonlight which remain in place for up to 2 hours unless dismissed early or negated by magical means. The motes can form a line extending 150' or a 30' radius circle. Priests of Eilistraee, Sehanine and Selune standing among the motes are treated as if they were standing in the light of a full moon. The wielder can also detect Elven spirits within the area of motes, including those contained in objects, magic items, animals, plants or free roaming. The Moonfire blessing of Selune increases the mote count to 75 in a radius of 45' or line of 220' for a duration of 3 hours. 



Cone of Moonlight

Once per day, the sword can project a Cone of Moonlight that extends to 50’ with a 20' width. It reveals shape changed or polymorphed creatures, forcing them to their true form on a failed save, otherwise outlining them. The cone negates all electrical attacks in its path. The Moonfire blessing of Selune increases the extent from 50' to 70'.

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

Lord Walian conducted his ceremony in the temporal disturbance of a time gate with the assistance of two other Knights Paradoxical; a Chronologian of Labelas Enoreth and a Temporal Champion Bard historian. All three cast Time Stop in the same area at the same time and once inside the sphere of stopped time, they cast Blur, Haste, Slow and Temporal Anomaly, while Lord Walian cast Temporal Stasis as he bound his spirit to the blade's moonstone. Lord Walian's familiar, a giant hummingbird, disappeared into the time stream.
