Enchanted Techno-Wizard Sword which can be found in a variety of different forms including that of a Rapier, Cutlass, Long Sword, Katana, and Sabre. No matter what the form of the weapon, it has the same enchantments and is quite effective. The weapons are created using special techno-wizardry which is only known in a few places, like Storm Spire, and holds similar enchantments to the better known Deathbringer and Battle Fury weapons. Their ability to reflect energy back at opponents and throw multiple lightning bolts makes them very popular. They are especially beloved by ship crews and some have found their way to star ship crews in the Three Galaxies where they are much in demand as well.

Many of the weapons are works of art even without the enchantments. Weapons are often highly engraved and are often decorated with silver, gold, or precious gems in the hilt of the bladed weapon. The weapon's blade is normally bright, almost mirrored in appearance, silver. Whenever one of the enchantments on the blade are activated, the blade glows a blight blue with what appears to be lightning crawling over the surface of the blade.

Weight: Rapier: 1.76 lbs (0.8 kg), Others depend on type of blade
Mega Damage: 4D6 (Some high quality katanas inflict 6D6)
M.D.C. of the Sword itself: 100. The sword regenerates damage at the rate of 10 M.D.C. per day. Such damage occurs only when an opponent deliberately tries to destroy the weapon.
Powers:
Targeted Reflection: When 15 PPE is channeled into the weapon, the weapon can be used to parry energy blasts and attacks back at the originator. The wielder of the weapon makes a parry roll with a +3 in addition to any other bonuses with the weapon. If a successful parry is made, then if the roll is 13 or greater the blast is sent back to the attacker. Unless they expect it, the attacker can only dodge or parry with no bonuses. The wielder can bounce the attack at a different target but needs a 16 or greater without bonuses. Only energy blasts, including magical, can be directed back at the attack but can deflect projectiles harmlessly away. The enchantment lasts for 6 melees/1.5 minutes
Lightning Arc: When 30 PPE is channeled into the weapon, the weapon can fire multiple lighting arcs from the blade. The wielder can fire one lightning bolt for each hand to hand attack with a range of 600 feet (183 meters) and inflicts 4D6+12 per lightning arc. Wielder has +4 to strike targets within 100 feet (30.5 meters) but has only +1 to strike targets beyond that. The enchantment lasts for 6 melees/1.5 minutes
Bonuses: +1 to Strike, +1 to Parry, and +2 to Initiative
