Legacy Power: The Sword of the Spirit
And take the helmet of Salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. - Ephesians 6:17
A 2 Gift
Melee Mastery
Power
used by Ellis McGruber,
created by BobDylan530.
Description
Ellis wields a mighty sword, Esperachius, forged from the very nail used to hang Jesus upon the cross. This is a blessed sword, and the Lord's will channels through it. It will never strike a creature not damned or tainted by a demonic presence; the wielder will find it simply too heavy to swing, and non-demonic entities will find the blade dull to the touch.
However, against those enemies the Lord has condemned to die, Ellis may sally forth with divine speed and smite them down with a ferocious blow.
System
Passive, always in effect. Attacks with Esperachius against demonic entities do + +2 and pierce [[armor-piercing]] Armor; against other targets attacks do no damage at all. May move as a free action when attacking demonic targets with Esperachius.
