Title
[Invention Lore] – Soul Sword
Origin/Backstory (Optional)
The soul sword was discovered when a swordsman had a strong bond between him and his sword. His mana ended up being emitted into the sword and binding it to his very soul. Upon falling asleep, he ended up in a consciousness with a man claiming to be the sword itself. It told him its name and said to call out his name when he awoke. Later, when he called out his sword's name, the sword changed its form.
Description
The soul sword is a sword that is bound to the soul of the user. When you call out its name, it takes the form best suited for the person's soul if they were to take on the form of a weapon. The sword has 2 evolutions, release and full power. Release is the form where the user calls out the sword's name. It could be a flaming sword, a bow that shoots out ice to freeze people temporarily, or a scythe that blasts out some wind to blow people a short distance away as well as send arrows away. Full power is when the user has the sword in release mode and changes the sword's form, usually similar to the release form yet more powerful. For example if it were a big heavy sword, it would be a lighter sword with just as much power.
Capabilities
The sword can have its name called and go to its release form, taking on the form of the person's soul if they were a weapon. It could be a sword that emits flames, a whip that has blades coming from it, a bow that shoots ice, or scythe that emits wind to blow people a short distance. for example, having properties similar to the person's natural behavior. The soul sword can also go into its second form when trained further. The second form is more draining yet more powerful. Usually it will be a more powerful version of the first form. For example, if it were a scythe, it could become a bigger, dual sided scythe that can emit waves of wind to blow people away a short distance. The forms can be toggled on and off, and they don't change other than when they change from normal to release, and from release to full power. The evolution forms do not change to put it in better words.
Siege Information (Optional)
The Soul Sword will be used the way it can normally be used, yet some may cause damage to buildings depending on what they are made of and what the spirit sword does. If its a giant hammer that creates shockwaves, it would most likely break a wall. (The shockwaves would be weak just to let you know so you don't decline this thinking its over powered.)
Red Lines/Restrictions
The Soul Sword should probably be used by a group of people who train in the spirit sword and use it to defend people from dangers, sort of like how the druidic order has certain people get in and train in druidism. The release forms will most likely be sort of weak, more like magic swords. They can be used for 30 ooc minutes, and when the 30 ooc minutes is up, they usually pass out due to overuse. The cool down its 10 ooc minutes. The full power form can only be used for 3 minutes at first, eventually being able to be trained to be used for 15 minutes. Its cool down will be one ooc hour.
Purpose (OOC)
The Soul Sword exists to bring a new way to fight with magic swords. Instead of just staying the same, it can be trained to grow stronger with the user.
Notes
-The sword does not change into the human, rather it becomes a weapon that matches the person's personality
-If the sword is used beyond its limits in its form, the user will go unconscious for about 10 irl minutes, though they may roll 20 to see if they get to see their sword's spirit. To do this, roll a 15.
-The sword must start out weak, and starts out as a normal sword. Once trained, they will meet the sword's spirit and fight it to obtain the release form. To obtain full release form, fight the spirit sword without their sword. The fighting happens in their consciousness after meditating for a set amount of time after being trained or while unconscious.
