Price: +2 bonus

Special Notes / Rules: Elemental Binding (fire, 4-6 HD, usually a Medium Fire Elemental)

Source: ECB, pg. 266

Description:

A Scorching weapon has a Khyber dragonshard in the hilt, trapping a fire elemental inside. The fire from bound elemental makes the weapon do an extra +1d6 points of fire damage. This does not stack with the Flaming, Flaming Burst or Igniting special qualities. However, on a successful critical attack, any creature hit catches fire. The weapon also provides a +2 enhancement bonus to Initiative checks, provided the weapon was in hand when the initiative check is made.

Construction Requirements: Craft Arms and Armor, Bind Elemental, Flame Blade, Flame Strike or Fireball

Construction Costs: As per Elemental Binding, with a Khyber dragonshard worth at least 500 gp
