NOTE: Second app is stats when activated. Also has very great fire damage.
Sword Of Arhat
This sword is thought to have once belonged to the famous mage Arhat. Warrior Mages report the use of this sword to be exhilarating. Others report more uncomfortable results. Both claim the experience to be 'fiery,' though whether this is a metaphor remains unclear.
Cesiro stated that this blade was supposedly wielded by Arhat during the Human-Elven wars.
Focus
The kertig broadsword has a definite magical pattern, which apparently is an enchantment.
You recognize the pattern as a manifestation of Elemental magic.
It seems to involve Fire Manipulation. The pattern itself is unique, to your knowledge, though parts of it remind you of the Mantle of Flame and Ignite spells.
Effect
The sword's damage type changes when it is activated - it loses all Slice damage and gains the same amount back as Fire damage. Trying to activate the spell while not being a Mantle of Flame knowing Warrior Mage leads to a fire lion appearing and mauling your face, arms, neck and chest, wounding you and setting you on fire. Ignite cannot be cast on the broadsword while it's already on fire. The enchantment also changes your look.
Custom Player Look When Activated
X's [color] eyes survey the area from within the jaws of a lion skin of brilliant flame, the creature's vicious teeth bared in a fiery snarl. The illusory animal's great mane is a raging inferno of red and and orange, limned with vivid yellows and blues. The dance of light and shadow lends X's visage a menacing hauteur, the harsh contrasts creating the impression of hard-edged angularity.
The great cat's massive paws clasp just above X's heart, the rest of the fiery pelt trailing down his back like a cloak of living flame.
To the room:
Also here: X who who is cloaked in a lion skin of brilliant flame
Atmo
- X's fiery lion skin seems to bare its teeth in a snarl, its blazing eyes burning with pride.
Weapon Tap When Activated
a massive kertig broadsword hilted in sigilated cambrinth that burns with brilliant red and orange flame
Verbs
- STUDY: Looking at your broadsword, you feel certain that you could: DANCE, RUB, TAP, CLEAN, ADJUST, SHAKE, FOCUS and WAVE it.
First Person
- WAVE: You slash your kertig broadsword in a great arc through the air. It catches fire with a concussive *WHOOOMPH*!
- The flames quickly move up the blade of the broadsword, engulfing your arm and torso in an inferno of flame!
- Your knowledge of the Mantle of Flame spell allows you to tame the raging conflagration. After a brief struggle with the energies, the fire settles into the shape of a great lionskin draped across you head and back, flaming paws clasped just above your heart.
- (This Activates the Enchantment. In addition to modifying the weapon's appraisal, it changes the appearance of the wielder, and the sword's TAP.)
- The flames quickly move up the blade of the broadsword, engulfing your arm and torso in an inferno of flame!
Third Person

- TAP: X idly taps the cambrinth hilt of his kertig broadsword, casually taking the measure of everything nearby.
- CLEAN: X gives his kertig broadsword a quick shake. The blade briefly flares with flame, burning every trace of battle from the surface of the gleaming metal.

- SHAKE: X gives the kertig broadsword a vigorous shake.
- SHAKE (when activated): X gives the kertig broadsword a vigorous shake.

Evoke
A stressful ache fills you as you pace restlessly before the ranks of the assembled apprentice mages. Green, unblooded children, but there's no time -- they will soon be tempered in the fires of true battle, or they will break.
You see fear and uncertainty in every eye, though many try to mask it with reckless bravado.
You decide it's time for a demonstration.
Grasping the cambrinth hilt of your broadsword, you draw it in one fluid motion, waving the kertig blade high above your head.
All the world is flame.
With a start, you find yourself drawn back to the reality of the here and now.
