Way of the Sword’s Heart
Level One: Where does the warrior end and where does the sword begin? For an initiate of this Way, there is no answer. The Silver Blade meditates briefly, blade in hand, creating a spiritual connection between warrior and sword. Make a Simple (1) Fighting + Intuition check. They gain +1 Fighting and cannot be disarmed of that blade by any circumstance for a number of Rounds equal to successes gained.
Level Two: A precise and deadly strike, known to be able to cut a bird in mid-flight. The Silver Blade cuts from above to below and immediately reverses the
attack, cutting again from below to above. The attack deals +2 damage and the enemy defends against it with a -2 penalty. This attack can only be used if the warrior has bonded with their sword, and after it is used, the bond is broken.
Level Three: This extremely deadly technique is a horizontal cut that strikes the left shoulder, neck and right shoulder at the same time. The attack deals +3 damage, and enemies who survive suffer a Bleeding 3 Condition. This attack can only be used if the Silver Blade has bonded with his sword, and after it is used, the bond is broken.

Plot Synopsis

This is an urban adventure that can be easily placed in a big city in your favorite campaign setting.

Aurora and Caesar are lovers. Aurora’s father, Doctor Damiel, is a respected alchemist in the city and wanted his daughter to marry a noble. He is firmly against their romance.

Aurora and Caesar decided to get married in secret, but Damiel found out. Disguising himself as Caesar with a disguise self potion, he tried to scare his daughter so that she would give up on the marriage. His plan worked too well: she was so scared she ran away. He followed her as she ran, tried to scare her even further, until she fell from a ledge and died.

Damiel wanted to revive his daughter and was studying how to do so with alchemy, but before his studies were complete, she came back on her own as a revenant, filled with hatred for the man she thought of as her killer.

Seeing this as an opportunity to toy with the man he hates while he looks for a way to revive his daughter, Damiel has been creating alchemical undead. He convinced the revenant of his daughter that he is going to aid in her vengeance, giving her magical items — including a mask to stop Caesar from identifying her.

Still grieving the recent death of his beloved, barely surviving the first attack, Caesar hires a band of adventurers to try to make it through the night.
