[QUOTE="ArcanistDragonborn, post: 9342699, member: 7041974"] [SIZE=7][I][B]PURE CRYSTAL[/B][/I][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][I]It's a beautiful day outside. Birds are singing, the sun is shining. All is well...? There is no sun. There is no light but what the darkness reflects.[/I] Unlike Shadow Crystals, which can only be seen through their shadows, Pure Crystals can only be felt or seen via their searing radiance. Wherever a Pure Crystal would normally cast a shadow, it casts a beam of scorching light, dealing 8d8 points of radiant damage per round to any creature or object that remains within the light for one round. [I]You remember talking and laughing with your compatriots. One of them is still alive. You remember a prince without a castle. He does not remember you.[/I] A Pure Crystal can only be held by those without quintessence. Holding a Pure Crystal begins to warp the wielder's mind, implanting false memories and dreams of a headless phoenix and melting angels. Furthermore, the wielder of a Pure Crystal must make a DC70 Will save each day, or move one step towards Lawful Evil. [I]Flame. Pure, scorching flame.[/I] Holding a Pure Crystal allows you to cast any damaging non-epic spell that deals fire or radiant damage as a standard action. Furthermore, killing a creature with one of these attacks causes the Pure Crystal to attempt to integrate itself into the heart of its user, which can only be blocked by a DC70 Fort Save. If the Pure Crystal becomes the heart of its wielder, the creature becomes LE, and is granted a Divine Esoteric Ability and has its personality erased, becoming nothing more than a tool of bloody purging, like the inverse of a Shadow Crystal. [I]Purity. Cleanse. Purge the unbelievers.[/I] A Pure Crystal can be formed by bathing a Shadow Crystal in the blood of a Cosmic+ good-aligned Outsider, then placing it in the heart of a white hole for a year and a day, or it can be formed by the natural effect of the Shadow Mantle. Pure Crystals hold part of the chained SOUL of Quex'Atal'Xiel'Sura, the original angel and creation of the Supernal, and the wielders of Pure Crystals will inevitably turn into the mental puppets of Quex'Atal'Xiel'Sura, the ANGEL. Hopefully you all thought this was interesting! I know this isn't my best work, but I'm still trying to get back into the groove of epic-scale writing, and I will hopefully have a bit more for all of you guys soon! -Arcane :)[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
