Created by the Battle Mage Infernis, Infernion could defeat any opponent that came it's way. Then Cypherion was made, and the two blades rivaled each other in power. When they accept each other's power, will they finally rest. Inferis the Battle Mage was the first of the Battle Mages. His skill with imbuing weapons with elemental magic soon allowed him to learn how to wield both necrotic and radiant forces. He made Infernion with the ability to do both. Traits. Infernion has a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls. It can also change it's damage from slashing to force, bludgeoning, necrotic, or radiant damage. The alignment of the creature determines if it gets necrotic or radiant damage. Good characters get radiant, and evil ones get necrotic. Defensive. Infernion functions as a Defender. Ethereal Warp.
