Effect Casting this spell conjures a weapon formed of liquid fire. Attacks with the Weapon of Flame are made with Dexterity + Magecraft + Fire Sphere and ignore physical armor, but not dodge or magical defense; damage dealt by this weapon applies Burning. If a target is immune or resistant to Fire effects, they may negate or resist damage from this weapon. The Weapon of Flame puts off light twice a bright as a standard torch, and may be suppressed (sheathed) or re-ignited (drawn) as a Fast action within the duration. In every other way, the weapon is identical to the normal mundane weapon of the same type and uses the same skills, damage dice, special attributes, and fighting styles.

The caster may shape the fire into the form of any standard weapon that they have previously wielded, including ranged weaponry such as throwing knives, bows, and crossbows. Bows and crossbows have the same reloading time as the mundane equivalents, however, the caster may freely summon an arrow or crossbow bolt of flame as a part of the reloading action.

Magitech weapons or other weapons requiring special materials (e.g. quicksilver, adamantine, etc.) as part of their construction may not be conjured with this spell.
