Weapon (longsword), legendary (requires attunement by a Good-aligned Fighter)

This is a holy sword with the power to seal away the darkness, blessed by the Goddess Hylia. The Master Sword has a +3 to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon. In addition, any neutral or evil aligned character who tries to pick this sword up will suffer 2d12 radiant damage each turn they continue to hold it, and fiend and undead will suffer 3d12.

Sword Beam - When you hit points are equal to your hit point maximum, every attack you make has a beam of energy shoot out of the sword in a line for 30 feet, or until it hits something. This beam does 2d8 radiant damage and can be combined with the damage of your sword if the creature hit is within 5 feet.

Dispel Barrier - Once per day, you may use the inner light of your sword to dispel one magic barrier your sword is touching.


Variant: Goddess Sword

Weapon(Short Sword), Legendary (Requires Attunement by a Fighter)

This is a holy sword blessed by the goddess Hylia with helpful spirit named Fi. It isn’t anything special now, but it has great potential. This weapon has a scabbard for it manifest upon your back upon obtaining it. Through trials and tribulations (AKA when the DM says good job, you earned it) it can become the Goddess Longsword.

This Sword has 5 charges. While it is on your person, you may take an action to expend charges and gain the following effects.

Guidance(1 Charge) Fi can advise you on how to approach the current situation, giving you a d4 to add to your next skill check.

True Strike(1 Charge) Fi can give you insight just how to attack a monster, giving you advantage on your next attack roll against it.

Skyward Strike(1 Charge) You can spend your action pointing your sword skyward and drawing in godly energy. Starting on your next turn, the next time you make an attack, this energy will slice the air in a line for up to 30 feet, dealing 2d6 radiant damage to the first creature it hits. The damage increases by 1d6 if the target is an undead or a fiend. You many add your sword damge to this if you hit a creature within 5 feet of you. While charged, your sword will shed bright light for 10 feet and dim light for 10 feet until you use this ability. The Goddess sword regains all charges at dawn.

Dousing - You may spend 5 minutes familiarizing yourself with an object, animal, plant, or creature that you have seen before. Your sword now points directly toward this thing, regardless of buildings or obstructions, and vibrates slightly when within 30 ft of it. You can dispel this effect with a bonus action. If you do so, you may start dousing again for the same object without taking the 5 minutes to study it. If the thing you are searching for is more than a mile away, this automatically fails. You can douse for a different thing by spending 5 minutes thinking about that thing instead.

Sentiance - Fi is a sentient weapon of the Lawful Good alignment, with an Intelligence of 20, Wisdom of 16, and a Charisma of 10. It has vision and hearing that match with the wielder’s abilities. It can communicate telepathically with the user, but can also can assume a projected form outside of the sword that can be used to speak with others. Fi understands all languages.

Personality- Fi is very robotic and emotionless in her speech patterns, and defer’s to her user as her master. She has a tendency to give statistics and tell the general chance of success of a course of action. Her goal is to see her wielder carry out the Goddess’s will, and will do everything in her capacity to help her user. She can develop friendships of a sort, despite not particularly understanding emotions herself. She will also constantly remind you that your Wii Remote batteries are low.
