Teuvel'Khilat / Frost Brand

From House of Khilat

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

Powers

Frost Brand

The length of the blade frosts over with a fine layer of ice crystals. The cold does not harm the hands that hold the weapon. On command, the blade can shed snow in a 10' radius around the blade.

The sword has a +6 bonus to hit and damage against creatures that dwell in fire or have innate fire attacks.

The blade can freeze 1 cubic foot of water per round.

Icy Burst

On a critical hit, shards of ice fly from the blade doing an additional 2d6 damage.

Fire Resistance

The wielder is protected as if he were wearing a ring of fire resistance, providing immunity to normal fires. Very hot fires and lava cause 10 hp damage per round, while damage from magical fires are reduced by 2 hp per die, with a +4 to the saving throw.

On command, the sword also has a 50% chance of extinguishing any normal or magical standing fire into which it is thrust, extending to a 10' radius. This does not apply to any detonations such as fireballs, but can affect fires left after such detonations.

Environmental Control

Temperature

Temperature within 10 feet of the blade can be controlled in relation to the ambient temperature of the surrounding area. Temperature can be lowered at the rate of 10 degrees per round to a maximum of 150 degrees lower. Temperature can be raised at the rate of 10 degrees per turn for the first 50 degree increase, and 10 degrees per hour after that, to a maximum increase of 150 degrees. Ambient temperatures return at the rate of 10 degrees per round once outside the influence of the blade.

When the temperature goes below 0 degrees Fahrenheit, the blade will glow with a silver light that illuminates out to 30 feet.

Wind

The wielder has continuous control over a zephyr of wind. The zephyr has a 5 foot radius and can travel within 75 feet of the wielder. The zephyr can cause small flames to flutter, fan the flame of small fires and create paths of fresh air through clouds of gas or vapor.

Three times per day, the wielder can control winds, as per the spell as cast by a 15th level spellcaster. Duration is 15 turns, or two and a half hours. The area of effect is up to a 600 foot radius, with a 10 foot eye of calm surrounding the wielder. Wind speed can be shift up or down at a rate of 3 miles per hour per round, up to 5 levels of strength.

Weather

Once per day, local weather can be changed as per the Control Weather spell. Weather can be shifted two places with double duration of 8d12 hours and area of effect of 8d4 Square miles. Only areas with local weather can be affected.

Guardianship

When Khilat ascended with Halel, they left a small portion of their spirit in the Moon Blade. The sword can be used to commune with the ascended spirit of Khilat. He will always converse with any family member, elven or dragon, seeking his wisdom. Most silver dragons will approach in disguise, and only some of them will acknowledge the wielder as family. Khilat thinks highly of himself and that his role to provide wisdom is more important than the wielder's goals. Khilat will offer advice and answer questions about the past at will. Silver dragons can detect Khilat when within 1 mile of the blade. 



Magic Spells

Khilat has access to a full set of wizard and priest spells appropriate to a great wyrm silver dragon. He will always use them in service to his silver dragon clan, 75% of the time for a silver or gold dragon of any kind, 50% of the time to aid large numbers of his elven family and 25% of the time to aid good metallic dragons or other powerful or large groups of good creatures. He will rarely ever use them to aid the wielder (5%) unless the wielder is directly serving him in a task to protect the groups listed above.


Dragon Song

The blade can sing with traditional dragon song, using male, female or a duet of dragon vocalizations. The music can be strictly tonal, or include lyrics in High Draconic, Metalic Dragon, Silver Dragon, Gold Dragon and Elvish.

Interactions

  • Moonblade - Moonfire cancels the Shadow Sword power.
  • Dancing - The sword can blink in any direction up to 10', once per round while being thrown, flying or dancing.
  • Flame Tongue - Flames and Sunshine cancels the Shadow Sword power.

Appearance

Feature

A thin spine of black adamantium runs up the center of the blade, starting just above the family symbol, running through the center of the broad fuller and extending to the very tip to form a pointed needle like punch. The base of the spine is set with a rainbow colored iridescent rogue stone that shows on both sides of the blade. The sharp tip of the spine is covered in a coating of glittering fine diamond dust. 


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.
