Phoenix Saber
This magic saber became the hallmark of the King's Cadre, body guard of the High-King of Rallion, before the great sundering. It is now a prized possession to the adventurer and collector. A key identifying mark is the image of a fiery phoenix embossed upon both sides of the pommel.
Mechanics & Inner Workings
This item appears to be a longsword hilt. This magic saber must be attuned by a creature of good alignment in order to be used. While grasping the hilt, you can use a bonus action to cause a blade of pure radiance to spring into existence, or make the blade disappear. While the blade exists, this magic longsword has the finesse property. If you are proficient with shortswords or longswords, you are proficient with the phoenix saber.
You gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon, which deals radiant damage instead of slashing damage. When you hit an undead with it, that target takes an extra 1d8 radiant damage.
The saber's luminous blade emits bright light in a 15-foot radius and dim light for an additional 15 feet. The light is sunlight. While the blade persists, you can use an action to expand or reduce its radius of bright and dim light by 5 feet each, to a maximum of 30 feet each or a minimum of 10 feet each.
Proficiency with a longsword allows you to add your proficiency bonus to the attack roll for any attack you make with it.
