(Converted to 3E D&D from AD&D)
The cutlass is a bright silver weapon decorated with small and medium
aquamarine stones. The blade is always brightly polished, and does not tarnish or stain, but
can become dirty. It reflects light easily, with a
chrome-like luster.
Dolphin's Dance was created by undersea elves to reward a friendly ship's
captain. The name of the captain is lost, but the
manufacture and magic of the blade mark it as a sea-elf creation. Most recently, the blade was won by the pirate Ribisi. This villain is known for pushing captains off their
ships and leaping into the water after them, killing them as they flounder in the waves. He then swims out and returns, leaping out of the water and catching the side of
the ship and boarding it, killing everyone aboard, with the possible exception of his boarding
party.
Dolphin's Dance is a Cutlass +2 with the following additional
abilities:
 |
When this blade is unsheathed underwater and held, the
wielder's base swimming movement becomes 40' and he gains +10 to his swimming skill. Usual encumbrance and armor movement penalties
still apply. |
|
All penalties for fighting underwater are negated when the
cutlass is used underwater. |
|
The blade confers Water Breathing (as the spell) to
anyone touching the cutlass for the duration of the time they are in contact with the
unsheathed weapon. |
Additional Notes
|
Under bright lighting conditions, where there is a source
of bright light, the blade can be used to reflect the bright light into another creature's
eyes, temporarily blinding them. Catching
and manipulating the light is a standard action. The
opponent may make a successful Reflex Save with a DC of 15 to avoid being blinded for
1d3 rounds. The wielder cannot use this tactic if there is no direct light source, the
light source is behind the wielder, or there is something to block the light from
reaching the opponent. |
|
The owner of Dolphin's Dance can use the Dolphin Leap Feat
(below) to leap out of the water like a dolphin, when the blade is unsheathed and held. |
|
The sword only conveys a means to move, attack, and
breathe underwater, it does not make the wielder warm.
If the water is not warm enough to swim in comfortably, the wielder may begin to
suffer penalties for being cold. |
