(Moonblade Shortsword) DMG'24p258 Weapon (Shortsword), legendary (requires attunement) Martial weapon, melee weapon 3 lb. 1d6 Slashing Mastery: Vex Of all the magic items created by elves, one of the most prized and jealously guarded is a Moonblade. In ancient times, nearly all elven noble houses claimed one such weapon. Over the centuries, some of these weapons have faded from the world, their magic lost as family lines have become extinct. Others have vanished with their bearers during great quests. Thus, only a few of these weapons remain. Every Moonblade longs for a bearer whose disposition and goals are compatible with its own. If you try to attune to a Moonblade that doesn’t want you as its bearer, the weapon not only rejects you but also places a curse on you, causing you to make D20 Tests with Disadvantage for 24 hours or until the curse is ended by a Remove Curse spell or similar magic. If you’re accepted by the weapon and try to attune to it, you become attuned to it instantly, and a new rune appears on it. You remain attuned to the weapon until you die or the weapon is destroyed. A Moonblade functions like a nonmagical weapon of its kind for anyone other than its chosen bearer. A Moonblade has one rune on it for each bearer it has willingly served (typically 1d6 + 1). The first rune grants a +1 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. Each rune beyond the first grants the Moonblade an additional property. The DM chooses each property or determines it randomly by rolling on the Moonblade Properties table. Minor Property. In addition to its aforementioned properties, each Moonblade has a minor property determined by rolling on the Magic Item’s Minor Property table (see "Magic Items"). Sentience. A Moonblade is a sentient weapon with an Intelligence of 12, a Wisdom of 10, and a Charisma of 12. It has hearing and Darkvision out to 120 feet. Its alignment matches that of its creator. The weapon communicates by transmitting emotions, sending a tingling sensation through the wielder’s hand when it wants to communicate something it has sensed. It can communicate through visions or dreams when the wielder is either in a trance or asleep. Personality. A Moonblade has a personality similar to that of its creator. Once a Moonblade has decided on an owner, it believes that only that person should wield it, even if the bearer’s alignment differs from that of the weapon’s or the bearer’s goals later clash with the weapon’s goals. Illusion (Minor Property) Powerful magic was woven into this blade, the wielder is able to call upon this latent magic to conceal the weapon. Usually letting it look like a non threatening object. Appearance. The blade of this sword is black as the night sky, it seems to swallow all light that reaches it and only in total darkness one can see the many purple runes etched into the blade itself. The blade itself seems to be more like a living shadow than an actual blade since it is always wreathed in misty darkness. Whose blade. This sword belonged to one of the first Spellblades who was blessed with it by Shar herself. Name & tale. This sword was originally a relic of Selune which was stolen by the Spellblades and corrupted by their goddess Shar. Now it serves their dark purposes. Attunement Rite (flavor only) To attune to this blade the wielder has to pledge their loyalty to the Spellblades cause. To answer whenever they call and to serve as an assassin in the shadow. Otherwise the blade refuses to attune to any wielder that would deny this offering. Dark Runes of the Blade Nightsinger is especially sharp and has gotten only sharper with every life it took. Attack and Damage rolls are increased by an +3 as the blade leeches the life out of its targets. This thirst for sending creatures into oblivion also manifests in Nightsinger dealing an extra 3d6 Force damage. Nightsinger can move to an extent on its own, when the wielder stabs another creature it instinctively moves itself to slice in direction of vital organs. Through that Nightsinger achieves critical hits on a 19-20 When an enemy is out of reach Nightsinger can be controlled by the wielders mind to fly 20/60ft towards their target, slicing on its own through it. Afterwards it instantly dissapears in an shadowy mist, reappearing in its masters hand. Nightsinger's Personality Loyal Hound: Nightsinger is loyal towards the Spellblade's cause. If the wielder goes against a call or the will of the Spellblade's leaders it might even unattune itself after a lot of complaints. Loves Music: Nightsinger loves dark and eery music, usually humming its own tunes in the head of its wielder. Thirst for Death: Nightsinger longs to send creatures to their oblivion, every time the wielder kills a creature they feel a slight approval from the sword.
