BogModWeapons/Threshold
Threshold is a gleaming moonsilver blade nearly four and a half feet in length and 7 inches wide. The crossguard on the weapon is wide enough you can comfortably close a hand around each side. The hilt itself is more stone than metal and is of an off white shade. Composed of alchemically treated materials gathered from the moon it is long enough to be gripped with both hands though designed primarily for a single hand. The quicksilver sheen of the wide broadsword style double edged blade is deceptively plain at times. Yet sometimes when its powers are at work or when beyond Creation's borders or in the presence of those from beyond violet symbols form and bleed off it into the air before fading.
In the third century after the Primordial War Luna was known to be infatuated with one of her own a Lunar hero named Udo Quick Wing. Amongst the favors she gave him beyond her attention was bringing the Lunar at times to join her in her palace on the moon itself. Granted a chance afforded few to see the lunarian surface and underside the Lunar did not go home empty handed bringing moonsilver and other stranger materials gathered from the shifting tunels inside. With those materials he forged the weapon Threshold. For four centuries he used in in glorious battle always pushing against the edges of the world and keep the Raksha always on the backfoot before his untimely passing. Lost in the wyld for a time it would eventually be reclaimed by a young Sidereal. Ultimatly a warriors weapon none of its users would come to a peaceful end. What Celestial does afterall? Still when the Ursupation came it fled with its owner into the east. A persistant hassel for the Shogunate it would go missing before the Great Contagion struck and the Raksha invaded. The Raksha were most happy about that.
What was unknown was that its master realized somthing was going wrong with herself. She moved to her secret manse lair and went into a hibernation hoping that time would cure the damage her own shapeshifting had caused from too long in the Wyld. Perhaps it would have had the region not felt a grand influx of Wyld energy when the Fair Folk made their great invasion. While she slept the wyld spark in her soul took charge though she slumbered on. In time the power of the Realm Defense Grid and the spread of humanity once more would push back the wyld leaving the region the manse was in healthy though somewhat twisted. In the years after Gaia returned to Creation one young Solar stumbled upon the manse. Breaching its age weakened doors the presence of someone in the manse woke the Chimera up and it slipped away into the world. Finding the manse unoccupied and the weapon unclaimed and untouched for centuries she gathered it with her and took it back into Creation to add to its legend once more.
Threshold is possessed of several powers of greater and lesser potency. With a touch or a gesture near to any door it can open it. This functions just like the Solar Charm Lock-Opening Touch though it costs no motes to use and only works on doors or other kinds of entrances rather than any lock. This also serves to open up Celestial Gates or doorways to Sanctums if one can find the entrance.
Secondly it can be used to restore a connection between two places. This costs 5 motes and a willpower but with this power a road can be cleared from a landslide or behemoth or for a scene a bridge of silvered moonlight can replace where a collapsed bridge was. This power only works on intended points of connection though. You can not make a bridge over any point of a raging river only those points that time has been taken to try to make a connection. If a great mountain blocks your way it will do nothing to clear a path if no one has made a passage through it before.
Thirdly it can help one move between Realms. For 15 motes and a willpower a swing of the blade can open a cut in existance leading to another Realm. From Creation you can reach the Underworld or the Endless Desert or even summon the Calibration Gate. From the Underworld you can reach Creation. Ending up in Malfeas means though five days to get out or to reach the Demon City.
Yet for all its utility it remains a weapon and against those from other places. This functions similar to the various circles of sorcery that use Banishing Spells. This power acts as a Shaping Effect and can be resisted as such. Rather than spending additional motes to reduce the targets dice pool a flat -5 is applied. This power works against demons and ghosts and can work potentially on other things too who are outside this domain. Abyssals and Infernals are still of Creation for the purpose of this power unless they have taken special steps to make them more of other places of existance such as an Abyssal who has learned Immortal Malevolence Enslavement or perhaps Kate's version of Raksi. Celestial gods can likewise banished to Yu-Shan and other gods to their Sanctum.
The weapon has all the traits of a regular Moonsilver Daiklaive with an attunement of 7 motes.
