Dagger of Flight

By Gregory Colvin (gcolvin@umr.edu)

Description

This dagger has an eight inch blade and a five inch handle with a Ruby/Diamond (explained later) as a pomel. The blade has three edges coming from a center shaft in a Y form (the dagger from "The Shadow" with a different handle). The dagger looks normal but inspection through magic shows it as having potential. The source of the power is in the diamond; if it is given blood, usually by stabbing one self with the pomel, it will turn into a ruby for a night. It takes one blood point to bind it. The blood binds it to the wielder. Once binded the wielder only has to think what he wants the dagger to do and it will. This can be used as a ranged weapon with a Perception + Melee diff 5 to hit a target and 3 + successes dice in damage, the damage in non-aggravated unless other methods are used to make it so. If a thaumaturgist with Movement of the mind tries to interfere with the dagger there difficulty is +2 and she must score twice as many successes as the wielder.
