Description: Moonblade is a relic from the early years of the Moon Mage Guild. It became one of the most visible symbols of Lunar magic and the chosen weapon of the Y'Shai. The spell channels the light-fire of the moons into a lightweight blade, though with additional study it can be shaped into a selection of other forms. The blade is sturdy, but lasts only for a short while and must never leave your hands."
Effect: +{{{buffs}}}, -{{{debuffs}}}, {{{dtype}}}, {{{htype}}}, Creates temporary SE weapon
Example Messaging: Katamba:

A shadow deeper than night oozes into existence in your right hand and coalesces into a long narrow moonblade of dull black which seems to absorb light itself.

Xibar:
A shaft of intense white light leaps into being in your right hand and coalesces into a long narrow moonblade of glossy blue-white diamond-hard metal.

Yavash:
A shaft of ruby-red light leaps into being in your right hand and coalesces into a long narrow moonblade of some fiery, almost liquid substance.

Breaking Moonblade:
You thrust your blue-white moonblade above your head and focus on disrupting its matrix in a spectacular manner.
With a careful touch, you pick apart the right structures from the matrix, weakening its physical integrity without disrupting the power of the spell.
The blue-white moonblade turns bright as a miniature sun before exploding into a cloud of blue-white slivers!
The slivers drift about for a moment, then begin to orbit your head.

Devices/Tattoos: No devices or tattoos documented.

Syntax

  • CAST <moon> <refresh> <hand>
You must specify one of the three moons. Refresh is optional and will lengthen the duration of an already existing Moonblade. Hand is optional and lets you designate the hand in which you will try to create or refresh a Moonblade. By default the spell will try both, starting with your right.
  • SHAPE <moonblade/moonstaff>
Shows syntax and possible options for changing the physical and magical structure of the Moonblade.
  • SHAPE <moonblade/moonstaff> TO <warded|unwarded>
Disable/reactivate the moonblade's attack messaging.
  • SHAPE <moonblade/moonstaff> TO <small/normal/narrow/curved/heavy/huge/blunt>
Changes the type of weapon. Requires Shape Moonblade.
  • SHAPE <moonblade/moonstaff> TO <primary/secondary/tertiary>
Changes which node is active. Requires Empower Moonblade.

Appraisals

  • Appraisal depends on the current form of the moonblade.
  • All forms but the normal version require the meta-spell Shape Moonblade to be known.
  • Every form gains improved stats with knowledge of the appropriate weaponsmithing techniques.
  • Moonblades also have improved stats if created when their respective moon has a very strong influence on mana or greater.
  • Weight is constant across a template regardless of tier.

Notes

  • These slivers provide different damage types depending on which moon was used to create them. These variations to damage type only apply to the slivers, and not to the moonblades themselves.
  • Katamba - Piercing and impact damage.
  • Xibar - Piercing and cold damage.
  • Yavash - Piercing and fire damage.
  • The ability to break slivers off of a moonblade is based on the Arcana skill. It takes approximately 104 ranks of Arcana to begin to perform this feat (you will still fail from time to time), and approximately 115-116 to break it consistently.
  • The slivers stack up to a maximum of 100 orbiting you at one time.
  • You can only have slivers from a single moon orbiting you at one time. If you attempt to create slivers from a different moon, they will instead eliminate an equal number of slivers orbiting you. If you create more slivers than you currently have, the excess will orbit you as normal.
e.g. If you have 10 red slivers orbiting you and attempt to create 8 blue slivers, 8 red slivers will be destroyed leaving you with 2 red slivers. If you then attempt to create another 9 blue slivers, the remaining 2 red slivers will be destroyed leaving you with 7 blue slivers.
  • Slivers will periodically float away on their own 1 to 3 at a time.
  • There is an easter egg when casting Moonblade in a room containing a Moonbeam. Rather than form the blade in your hand you will reach into the moonbeam and draw out the blade.
