An heirloom of the Elven House of Khilat, this moonblade had been passed down through the generations. The blade was lost and lay dormant for many generations after its owner became Lythari and left civilization behind. It was later retrieved by a Knight of the Fellowship of the Forgotten Flower but was lost again in the fall of Myth Drannor, and subsequently taken to the lower planes. While under the mental control of a former owner of the moonblade, Chiliad Khilat used his amulet of the planes to open a portal and summon the sword.

The moonblade, in its final form, is a +5 weapon. The blade is effective against creatures subject to silver or cold iron weapons. The sword is intelligent (17) with a starting ego of (15) but has gained a point of ego after the death of each of its successive owners. The sword is generally of Neutral Good alignment but but has strong tendencies towards the alignment of the current and previous owner. The blade can communicate by speech and telepathy, ether from itself or one of its manifestations. It can speak Elvish and read Elvish and magical writing. The blade also speaks all the languages known by its previous owners.

Each time a moonblade is passed on, the moonblade itself decides whether to accept the new owner or not. The owner must be Elven, a member of its chosen Elven family if any still live, of good alignment, and act in a selfless and heroic manner. Major acts of cowardice, cheating, or lying will all count against an individual attempting to possess a moonblade.

If the moonblade does not accept a new owner, or if it is touched by a non-elf, the blade may choose to inflict 5d8 points of damage per round. If the blade is dormant or chooses not to react, it will perform as a long sword +1. Individuals of evil alignment must successfully save vs. death magic or be instantly slain. Even if the save is successful, the evil individual will feel intense pain, and will never be able to handle the blade again.

Powers

Judgement

The sword can judge the character, motive and intentions of anyone it touches. The blade can't be used to attack innocent opponents, as the wielder's arm will go limp and the blade will drop from his hand.

Bladerite

Each time a moonblade is passed on, the moonblade itself decides whether to accept the new owner or not. The owner must be Elven, a member of its chosen Elven family if any still live, of good alignment, and act in a selfless and heroic manner. Major acts of cowardice, cheating, or lying will all count against an individual attempting to possess a moonblade.

If the moonblade does not accept a new owner, or if it is touched by a non-elf, the blade may choose to inflict 8d6 points of damage per round. If the blade is dormant or chooses not to react, it will perform as a long sword +1. Individuals of evil alignment must successfully save vs. death magic or be instantly slain. Even if the save is successful, the evil individual will feel intense pain, and will never be able to handle the blade again.

Unbreakable

The sword is extremely hard, and can only be broken by extreme measures including Titan or god like strength. It will only fail a saving throw versus crushing blows on a 20. When an opponent uses a weapon to attempt to break the sword, there is a 75% chance that their weapon will be broken instead.

Owner Imbued Powers

Each new owner of a Moonblade can imbue the blade with a new power. Powers are often imbued into the Moonblade at a time of great need, typically to survive an otherwise fatal attack or accident. Powers can also be imbued with deliberation, based on the desires of the owner, and can even be modified by future owners. Khilat had the foresight to guide owners to develop carefully crafted rituals incorporating components to enhance the intended power. In some cases, additional enhancements were later added by High Magic rituals or divine blessing.
