Lunar Blade

Mechanics & Inner Workings

The Lunar Blade have a particular magical property: it is able to absorb moonlight and unleash it when the user uses his own power in the blade. This allow the Lunar Blade to create a slashing wave, able to tear through hard surfaces, like armor, and even cut through the astral plane, making it really powerful against incorporeal foes. The wave and energy that the blade can manifest also acts as condensed strong light, which can hurt monster vulnerable to daylight. A charged wave can reach about 60 feet and cover a crescent shape of 20 feet.

Manufacturing process

Outside of the usual process to smith weapons, the foundry need an extremely high temperature to manage to make the alloy because of the moon tears' superbly high melting point. SillerOffen and the Titan's Crucible are amongst the rare forges able to achieve that feat.
