Elemental Blade-Elemental Knights have the ability to imbue various elemental properties into their weapons. This technique is executed as a free action that provokes an attack of opportunity. This technique may be performed once a round and the effects last that round. A weapon may only be imbued with one technique at a time. At every level she advances as an Elemental Knight, she receives 2 technique points. A technique point is used to either acquire a new technique or increase a currently acquired technique by one level. Techniques cannot be bought and leveled up at the same time. The Elemental Knight must advance one level with the technique before she can increase its level. Each time a technique is bought it applies to one weapon, but it may be bought again for another weapon. The techniques and their benefits at each level are listed below. Elemental Blade may be used daily based upon character and technique level. 1^st level techniques take up one use, 2^nd level-two, and 3^rd level-three. Number of uses may not exceed her level. Only melee weapons may be subject to Elemental Blade.

· Flame Sword: With this technique the Elemental Knight imbues her weapon with searing red flame. This increases the damage dealt and adds the fire property to the weapon. The weapon also provides light just as a torch. Wooden weapons are destroyed after one round of being the subject of Flame Sword.

2^nd: +1d4 damage.

3^rd: Ignition: An opponent struck by Flame Sword must make a Reflex save at DC20 or be caught on fire.

Kirby’s Cutter cannot be used for unarmed attacks or with non-bladed weapons.
