11-08-06, 11:31 AM Here's a weapon i'm going to put in my Campaign tell me how you like it

Weapon Damage Critical Type Range
Living Sword 1d8 19-20/2 slashing -/15

As a move action you may hit a switch on the hilt to lose the blade. In the mode it acts in all ways to a whip, except is deals lethal damage. There are also greatsword versions of this.

True living swords have are magically animated adding a extra +2 to trip and disarm attacks

Sounds a little strange, what are the specifics of it? what's it made from, cost, magic level, etc.

Ok, I'm feeling ya. So is the 'normal' one a mechanical device?

Yes, I've seen this sort of thing before. I believe it's normally called a "whip sword" or something along those lines. "Living sword" sounds like a good name for the magical version.

By the way, are you sure you want it acting "in all ways" like a whip? A normal whip deals only nonlethal damage.

11-08-06, 08:25 PM I don't know about a movie. This One is inspired by Soul Caliber.

11-09-06, 02:05 AM Would you consider giving some more powerful Living Weapons fast healing or regeneration?

So they could repair themselves after being damaged?
