====== Fjorglimt ====== {{ :campaigns:latitude_history:characters:fjorglimt.png?420|Fjorglimt}} Fjorglimt is [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:risar-stormborn|Risar Stormborn]]'s named sentient sword. The name means or evokes fjord-light or lightning over the fjord, matching Risar's storm and thunder imagery. It is a straight, double-edged Viking sword forged from sky-forged steel, with a broad blade etched in coiling knotwork and ancient runes that glow electric blue when the weapon hungers for battle. The pommel is a snarling blue dragon head with twin sapphires for eyes. Leather wraps the hilt in the old style of Risar's grandfather, the great warrior who carried it through storms and giant-kin wars. ===== At a Glance ===== * **Known as:** [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:risar-stormborn|Risar Stormborn]]'s lightning sword. * **Known for:** Associated with [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:risar-stormborn|Risar Stormborn]]'s bronze/blue dragonborn paladin identity. * **Last known status:** Carried by [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:risar-stormborn|Risar Stormborn]]. ===== Campaign History ===== * Associated with [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:risar-stormborn|Risar Stormborn]]'s bronze/blue dragonborn paladin identity. * Part of Risar's storm-themed combat presence in the [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:nidaross|Niðaróss]] and [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:stormroost|Stormroost]] material. * Protects the Stormborn bloodline and will not willingly allow itself to be wielded by anyone who harms Risar's family. * Planned [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:hearthforge|Hearthforge]] cave-clearing story use: Fjorglimt should give Risar timely, practical advice that he follows to great success, especially advice that helps him protect the party and work as part of a coordinated team rather than only chasing personal glory. ===== Connections ===== * [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:risar-stormborn|Risar Stormborn]]: wielder; Fjorglimt calls him "little thunder" with gruff affection. * Risar's grandfather: previous wielder who carried Fjorglimt through storms and giant-kin wars. * Stormborn bloodline: Fjorglimt is protective of the family line. ===== Abilities and Gear ===== * Sentient +1 magic weapon: grants a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls. * Awakened Divine Smite: whenever Risar uses Divine Smite while wielding Fjorglimt, the extra damage may change from radiant to lightning. * Lightning arc: when Awakened Divine Smite is used, each creature of Risar's choice within 5 feet of the target must make a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw or take 1d6 lightning damage.
