Magical Weapon Modifications
Throughout the history of Mizahar there have existed many different types of magically enhanced/modified weapons. All manner of magical beings and magically-trained individuals have contributed to the creation of such weapons. While there have been a number of Artifact-level weapons created over the centuries, there have been many more lesser weapons created, sold, traded, stolen, gifted, lost and found.
These magical modifications are sometimes similar to those that can be added through the use of Magecraft or related magic/gnosis but many quite different. They can often be added to a character's weapons through the use of Quest Coupons given out as rewards for completing various writing challenges.
Below is a list of the more common magical modifications that may be found in magical weapons.
Primary Magical Modifications
1 - Acidic Coating: Secretes a corrosive acid that coats the weapon's attack surface. (Enhances damage by one level)
2 - Legendary Balance: Two-handed weapons can be wielded with one hand, one-handed weapons are weightless.
3 - Commanding Presence: Enhances one's force of personality; more intimidating, persuasive, seductive, etc. (+5 bonus to Intimidation, Persuasion and Seduction while wielded)
4 - Berserker Rage: Ignore some amount of physical damage for a limited amount of time, wielder retains little self control. (Ignore a single Moderate Wound)
5 - Disarmament: Makes opposing weapons more likely to be dropped when struck. (+10 to disarming)
6 - Elemental Energy: Surrounded by a magical aura of either fire, ice or electricity. (Additional minor wound with each successful strike)
7 - Quickdraw: Instantly appears in the wielder's hand, high likelihood of preemptive strike against opponent.
8 - Brutal Retribution: Wielder takes a hit and counterstrikes with brutal results. (Suffer a hit and do one level greater damage on a successful counter-attack)
9 - Concussive Force: Successful strikes cause explosions of force upon the target. (Additional Minor wound plus target is knocked back several feet)
10 - Debilitating: High chance of hitting a critical part of the body. (+10 to attack a specifically targeted part of an opponent's body; success means damage is enhanced by one level)
11 - Health: Heal wounds and cleanse toxins on command (Heals minor wounds and purges L1 poisons once per day)
12 - Diseased: Causes rotting, festering wounds (Causes -10 to targets rolls for the duration of the scene)
13 - Reflective: High chance of reflecting targeted magic back on the one who cast it. (+2 to resolve for sake of resisting targeted magic; success reflects the magic back on opponent)
14 - Leeching: Drains djed from a target and transfers it to the wielder. (Empower a single magical action without causing any drain to the wielder)
15 - Earthly Tremble: Causes the ground in the immediate area to violently quake and tremble. (Causes a -10 to an opponent's next physical action)
16 - Bend the Wild: Inspires wild animals to ally with the wielder. (Nearby wild animals on a 1-50 roll in discord to treat the wielder as a temporary ally for the duration of the scene)
17 - Of the Sea: Command the waves; waterbreathing. (Allows the wielder to breath water like a fish for a half a bell)
18 - Stormlord: Call upon thunder, lightning, rain and wind. (Summon a moderate storm in the immediate area for half a bell; call down a single bolt of lightning against a target. Successful strike causes a serious wound. Resolve score is used for roll, no added bonuses)
19 - Sentient: Has an average-above average intellect and personality (Choose form of communication).
20 - Darkest Night: On command can envelop the immediate area in impenetrable darkness. (Creates a 30-foot radius of complete darkness around the wielder for 5 chimes; does not affect wielder)
21 - Unlife: Wielder does not need to eat, drink, breathe or sleep and does not naturally age. (Only works when the weapon is carried on their person. Once the weapon is not on their person for any length of time, all of the effects of hunger, thirst, fatigue and aging they have avoided, hit at once)
22 - Deathslayer: Can hit any ethereal forms and causes terrible wounds to undead creatures. (Allows for striking ethereal creatures with an additional minor wound on a successful strike)
23 - Lifedrinker: Rips years off of a victim's life and transfers them to the wielder. (Roll 1d4 on a successful strike to see how many years of life are taken and received)
