Energy Sword

Creates a sword made from a random energy type.

Spell Type: Arcane {Fire, Water, Earth, or Wind}

EXP Cost: 1

Casting Time: Swift

Target: Self

Goes Against: Reflex Defense

Description: You wave a hand in the air, creating a sword made of rippling arcane energy and can attack with once it is summoned. This sword functions like a short sword or longsword (caster's choice) and acts like a held weapon that deals the selected energy type when the spell is cast. Despite being a held weapon, this still uses your casting stat for damage as opposed to Strength or Dexterity and uses your spell attack bonus rather than your melee attack bonus. Weapon Focus and Specialization in Swords adds to this. Brutish Swords double the casting stat to damage as if it were Strength. Even if you aren't proficient with swords, you don't suffer any penalties using this weapon.

By spending 2 EXP, the caster can add new sword-type weapons as choices for this spell (example: adding bastard sword to the list of swords they can create).
