Sword

Sword: These powers are usable with all standard weapons in the PHB, even if they are not roleplayed as swords.

Sword Combos work differently than other types of Combos, and roll a separate strike roll for each attack made in the Combo. If a Superspeed is used with or against a Sword combo, it applies to all Strikes and all Defenses made.

They are still considered Combos, however, and as such, auras and shields used against them can still only be used against a single attack made in the combo, though it can apply to all strikes of a specific attack. If you chose to Power Block a Sword combo, you could use Supreme Aura against all of the Multislash damage rolls, but you would have to use a different aura against the Twice damages. -- -- -- - Power Name: Thrust Level: 1 Type: One Cost: 3 End UPR: Unlimited Description: You lunge with your body, and attempt to impale your opponent with your blade. You take a -3 penalty to Strike with this power, but deal +50% of your Sword's damage.

This power adds Shield Piercing to the attack, but offers no additional damage.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Alternatively, if you're using a sword which is inherently Shield Piercing, you may use a different form of Slice once per round. This version makes your damage Unpreventable, but costs 5 End and 25 Ki, instead of the usual cost. You must declare the usage of this UP Slice when you use this version. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Power Name: Divide <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Level: 2 <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Type: One <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Cost: 4 End <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">UPR: Unlimited <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Description: This is a sword attack which hits two separate targets, rolling strike and damage for each individually. You must target two different opponents with this power, and you can critical against both. Your sword's dice in damage is halved with this attack (If your sword did 10d10 damage, you would do 5d10 against each opponent). Divide can be used to hit two images of Unstable Albedo, but only two. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Template: {(Sword's Dice/2 + Str mod) + Misc mods + Bulk} <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Power Name: Twice <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Level: 3 <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Type: One <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Cost: 3 End <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">UPR: 2/Round <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Description: You perform a quick circle-eight motion with your weapon, slashing twice against an opponent in a single action. Strikes and damages are rolled separately for each strike.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">The first attack made has a -3 penalty to its strike roll, but the second attack gains a +3 bonus to its strike roll. Both strikes made can crit. Separate defenses can be made against each attack, but Superspeeds used with or against this power apply to both strikes, and attempting to parry the strikes made using this power does not incur a Multi attack penalty.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Bulk is applied only to the second attack made in a Twice, and can not be applied to both strikes. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">1st Strike Template: {(Sword damage + Str mod) + Misc mods} <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">2nd Strike Template: {(Sword damage + Str mod + Misc mods + Bulk} <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Power Name: Ki Enhance <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Level: 3 <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Type: Two <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Cost: 15 Ki per die of damage, up to 15 Ki per level <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">UPR: Preround <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Description: Using this power, you can channel your Ki into your weapon, making it a little sharper, stronger, and more durable. This power can only be activated preround, and lasts for the entire round when used. It grants the weapon it's used with +2 to all Sword strikes made in the round, and adds one die of damage per level you have, costing 15 Ki per level.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">This power has a unique ability, giving you the option of dispelling the energy infused into your weapon as a blast of Ki. This is considered a Ki attack, using your Ki strike for its strike roll, and deals 1d8*10 damage per die you added to your weapon. Damage which applies to sword does not enhance this damage, but bonuses to Ki damage do. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Dispell Template: {(1d8*10 per die + Ki mod) + Misc ki mods}

If you have the Ambidexterity unique, you're allowed to use this power to Ki Enhance two weapons, but pay the cost for each. Daggers do not count for this, and can be Ki enhanced during the round following their rules. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Power Name: Multi Slash <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Level: X <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Type: One <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Cost: 1 End + 3 End per hit, up to 1 End + 3 End per 2 levels <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">UPR: 1/Round <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Description: You perform a dizzying series of strikes with your sword in a single action. You strike once with your weapon, plus an additional time per two levels you have (at level one you'd hit once, at level two you'd hit twice, at level four you'd hit three times, etc). You roll strike and damage separately for each attack. You can only bulk into the first strike you make, and only the first strike can become a crit.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Notes: <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">* Supreme Aura and Aura of Protection can be used multiple times (once per hit) against Multi Slash because it's a single attack, not a Combo. Its damage rolls are separate, however, meaning that any shield or aura which has a per-round limit (such as Shield Invents) can only be used against a single damage roll. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">* The power Freeze avoids all strikes from this power. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">* You can declare separate defenses against each hit of a Multislash, but parries suffer the usual penalty for attempting to parry a Multiattack (-5), which is applied to all parries made. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Power Name: Parrying Strike <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Level: X <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Type: Three <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Cost: 2 End; 3 End for a Multi Attack <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">UPR: Unlimited <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Description: This power allows you to use your sword defensively to catch, knock away, or stop an an opponent's armed or unarmed attack. You make a normal Sword strike with a -3 penalty, with an additional -5 penalty for Multi attacksk. Swords can parry other Swords and Hand to Hand attacks, and suffer no additional penalty for parrying Hand to Hand attacks.

You deal twice your sword's maximum damage. Using this power makes you lose the last action in the round, however if you use it as your last action of the round, you do not lose any action of the next round.

You perform a Multi Slash, and then a Twice. None of the attacks used can score a crit. The powers used count toward their uses per round, and you can not choose to cancel out part of this attack. You must do all attacks, and you must have all the powers required in order to use it.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Notes: <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">* This is a Combo, but a separate strike roll is made for every hit of the Multi Slash and the Twice, and as such separate defenses can be declared against each strike made. Parrying any of the attacks incurs the normal penalty for attempting to parry a Multi attack, and a parry roll must be made against each attack. <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">-- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">- <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Power Name: Advanced Sword Combo <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Level: X2 <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Type: One <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Cost: 13 End + Cost of the powers used <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">UPR: 1/2 Rounds <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Description: You strike with your sword and flow in a single, continuous motion. You perform a Multi Slash or Thrust, then a Twice or Perfect Strike, and end with any Offensive Ki power of level three or below. The Ki power hits if the last sword attack in the Combo hits.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">None of the attacks used can score a crit. The powers used count toward their uses per round, and you can't choose to cancel out part of this attack. You must do all attacks, and you must have all the powers required in order to use it.

When this power is used, you temporarily create clones of yourself, surrounding your opponent. All of your clones move in sync with you, and strike at once against your target.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">1d4 + level/2 clones are created, all of which deal your regular sword damage. Your sword's base dice in damage and Strength modifier are multiplied by the number of clones you have; no other damage is multiplied by the clones. This attack's damage is Unpreventable.

After you've declared your attack and they've declared their defense, if you successfully hit, deal damage, and they use an aura or shield to reduce some of the damage, you can declare the usage of this power, and shatter their aura or shield.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">The aura or shield they used is no longer able to be used for the remainder of the battle. This can be done against any shield or aura, but applies only to *that* shield or aura; if you shattered their Aura of Protection, they could still use their Ki Shield and Supreme Aura. However, keep in mind that Solid Aura replaces Psionic Aura in every way, and does not allow them to use Psionic Aura in place of Solid Aura if it's shattered.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">Notes: <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'TimesNewRoman';font-size:medium;line-height:normal;">* You will have to roll a fake damage roll for this, and declare Aura Slice after they've shown their reductions and declared their shield/aura. If you use this in conjunction with a Sword power which has a per-round limit, it still counts as a usage for that round.
