Electrical Sword

Electrical Sword is an enchantment spell, in which the wielder uses electric elemental magic to coat their metal blade in powerful electric energy. An elemental magical damage aura is a unique phenomenon in Leray magic that has several applications. The official skill of Electrical Sword is not an attack move, just an enchantment. This particular spell takes some time for the full effects to become usable too, compared to the elevated quick attack version, Electric Blade. When one adds this aura to their blade, the aura persists for some time without additional focus on that aura. When the sword is used to slash into opponents, that aura inflicts electric elemental damage with each strike. Additionally, this aura can absorb lower level electric projectiles or beams when deflected. While Electrical Sword only works on swords, the same attribute of ice can be applied to other weapons, often under a different spell name. This skill is usable with shorts swords and long swords, but use with longer blades will encourage longer lasting aura duration.

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, Electrical Sword does have a rare 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.

Material Components

While totally optional, Electric Infusion Orbs have the ability to invoke Electrical Sowrd to a prepared weapon without the use of one's personal MP energy. With a steady supply of these orbs, one can use this spell without using their own magic.

Gestures & Ritual

The aura is applied to the blade by exerting the magic through the hand while hovering it over the full length of the blade. Practice with other electric spells is required before success can be expected with this skill.
