Electric Blade

Electric Blade is the evolutionary form of Electrical Sword. While the effects may seem similar at first, this spell works without having to touch or wave the hand over the steel saber, dramatically reducing the invocation and charge up time. Electric Blade enchants the sword with a stronger electric elemental property that lasts longer. While most wielders use this in their advantage of rapid invocation to follow up the spell with a successive sword strike, doing so is not exactly a requirement. Electric Blade is more often considered a full attack spell compared to Electrical Sword because of the swifter opportunity to invoke and strike within a short period of time. This is essentially a full upgrade to Electrical Sword in every way imaginable.

Glyphring: Generation Only

Side/Secondary Effects

If the sword is generated through a glyphring, the blade and the aura itself will take twice as long to invoke, while aura itself will last for only half the average duration than when used normally. Wielders who are hit with electric elemental magic will sustain a very brief jolt hold followed by the pain of an electric attack. While this particular skill isn't powerful enough to rely on for stunning opponents for a long duration of time, Electric Blade does have an occasional random chance after several successive hits to inflict temporary paralysis on the opponent.

Manifestation

The blade becomes shiny with a thin jade color aura, while green electrical sparks (which are mostly simulation) zoom around the metal for the durational life time. The buzzing electrical noise can easily be heard by the holder of the blade, while each impact generates a strong zapping sound. The handle of the sword is not affected by the aura, elsewise the wielder would be harmed by their own spell. The aura stays attached to the blade during its entire lifetime, and inflicting damage on another target does not affect the remaining lifespan of that aura.
