Blade of Resplendent Essence

||Speed||Accuracy||Damage||Defense||Attunement Cost|| ||+3||+6||+11L||+2||5|| Description:
The Blade of Resplendent Essence appears to be a simple rod about 6 inches long with a hearthstone setting at one end, until activated in combat. When activated, a blade of light leaps forth from the hearthstone-bearing end; though the hearthstone remains intact. The exalt still receives the benefit of the hearthstone, though its power is used as a focus for the weapon, and it will not work without a hearthstone. The blade is formed by the least god of the weapon, and it uses the one attunement mote. The color of the blade is befitting the type of material it is made of (Gold for Orichalcum, Silver for Moonsilver, the appropriate color for jade, Black for Soulsteel, and the Maiden’s Color for Starmetal). However, the weapon makes a terrible racket when is use. Stealth is impossible while wielding an active Blade of Resplendent Essence, due partially to the light emanated by it, but also due to a humming sound that emanates from the blade. Anyone in the same room can pinpoint an active Blade of Resplendent Essence by making a Perception-Awareness check of difficulty 1. If used to strike something, anyone not deaf in the room can pinpoint the exact location, and people away from the room receive Perception-Awareness checks of appropriate difficulty. The blade is also obvious to anyone using Essence Sight. When used with (Weapon) Channeling Prana, the blade manifests as a glow around the Exalt’s hands, and still gives off the appropriate sound effects. This weapon counts as a daiklave for purposes of Form Weapons.
