Description: The caster creates a black blade-shaped planar rift, resembling a greatsword which fights at her side. The blade cannot be harmed by physical attacks, but it can be affected by dispel magic or similar effects. The spell requires the caster to concentrate on it — casting spells or performing any other action than walking or talking may result in a concentration failure and end the spell. Has permanent Haste.

This spell will now always use the corresponding caster ability modifier for all classes, including Wisdom.

Notes
