Flaming (Melee Weapon Magic Property)

Flaming (Melee Weapon Magic Property)

Enchant Cost: +1

The wielder of this weapon may activate its ability with a swift action, causing the weapon to become sheathed in fire, dealing an extra +1d6 points of bonus fire (energy, common) damage on a successful hit. The fire does not harm the wielder. The effect remains active until another swift action is expended to turn it off, the weapon is sheathed, or until the wielder takes a full night's rest, whichever occurs first.

The fire damage granted by Flaming is bonus damage, which is not increased by a critical hit. However, upon a successful critical hit, the wielder inflicts the Singed condition on the target as a free action, in addition to the weapon's normal critical damage. The damage inflicted by Singed is based on the character level of the wielder.

While the flaming effect is active, the weapon gives off light as a torch (30 feet of bright light, 30 additional feet of dim light). Note that entering a stealth stance is impossible while carrying a light source.

Creation: Creator (Feat), Bailiwick Check (DC 17), a languid remnant (tier 1), and an item symbolic of the enchantment.
