Lightning Sword

[hcobb]

There have been a few of these spotted, but the enchantment has been lost. Please hand any you find over to the Wizard's Guild for study.

This enchantment has only been found on metal bladed weapons. During the continue spells phase the wielder may put one of his fatigue into the blade that is then covered by lightning which makes a separate damage damage roll against targets struck by the blade. This is 1d of lightning damage for the next three turns, and the effect can stack so if the user continues putting one fatigue per turn then on the third turn and thereafter this is a 3d lightning attack every turn. The nasty part of this is that's it is neither a spell nor a missile attack and so Spell Shield and Reverse Missiles don't work against it. Only resistance to lightning shields against this attack (and destruction of the target's magical items).
