Signature (Enchanted) Item: Force de l'Ouri

[TCArknight]

(for @Technospawn 's Venators game)

The longsword known as Force de l'Ouri (Strength of the Ouri) has been passed down for generations with its forging occuring sometime in the pre-Rifts era. The blade did not initially have any powers, but over the generations as magic returned to the world, so did the blade gain the enchanted abilities as one owner then another would imbue or commission their own enhancements.

As time passed, the blade was put to terrible uses at the hands of owners who served as part of the Mystic Knights. As Zephrim began his career, that dark history looked to continue, but as he had a change of heart and stepped onto a path for redemption, the darkness that has infused the blade has slowly begun to fade as it is replaced with light.

Looks legit to me.

Edited to add the base AP for an enchanted item. In this case, base AP of 8 for the d8.

How did you determine the base AP?

From the guidelines in the forum post (bolded). The longsword was d8, so AP 8.

Item Creation
Enchanted Items
Use the Minor and Major Item Creation rules found in Arcana & Mysticism. Magic melee weapons always deal Mega Damage.

For Signature Items choose one option:

• An enchanted item (weapon, armor, gear, etc.) with 2 Minor and 2 Major Upgrades up to Heroic rank.
  • For armor use light or heavy Enchanted Armor from Arcana and Mysticism as a base item.
  • For weapons use medieval melee or ranged weapons (SWADE Personal Weapons section) as a base item, but it deals Str + damage dice ×2 MD,
    with AP equal to damage die type.
  • For gear use the “Magic Items & Equipment” sidebar on page 46 of Arcana & Mysticism to re-trap a piece of gear (not weapons or armor) as “magic”. Subject to GM approval process.
• Use an existing Magic Item (comparable in power to Spirit Bow or Spirit Spear) as a template. Subject to GM approval process.

+1 die type does not add a die it changes d8 to d10. So it should be STR+2d10 AP 12
