			\| (PRESTIGE CLASS)<br>The dream of melding magic and weapon play is fulfilled in the person of the Spellsword. A student of both arcane rituals and martial techniques, the Spellsword gradually learns to cast spells in armor with less chance of failure. Moreover, she can cast spells through her weapon, as well as store spells there for later use. Feared by mages for her ability to cast in armor and by the common people for her ability to use spells, the Spellsword often walks the world alone.<br><br>- Hit Die: d8.<br>- Proficiencies: A Spellsword does not gain any additional weapon or armor proficiencies.<br>- Skill Points: 2 + Int Modifier.<br><br>REQUIREMENTS:<br><br>Arcane Spellcasting: Level 2 or higher.<br>Feats: Weapon Proficiency Simple, Weapon Proficiency Martial, Armor Proficiency Light, Armor<br>Proficiency Medium, Armor Proficiency Heavy.<br>Skills: Lore 6 or more ranks.<br>Base attack bonus: 4 or higher.<br><br>ABILITIES:<br><br>Level<br>1: Imbue I - This allows the Spellsword to temporarily imbue his weapon with an element of his choice once per day.<br>2: Ignore Spell Failure 20%<br>3: Ignore Spell Failure 25%<br>4: Imbue II - This allows the Spellsword to temporarily imbue his weapon with an element of his choice twice per day, and the effect is stronger over Imbue I.<br>5: Ignore Spell Failure 30%<br>6: Bonus Feat<br>7: Ignore Spell Failure 35%<br>8: Ignore Spell Failure 45%<br>10: Imbue III - This allows the Spellsword to temporarily imbue his weapon with a special ability once per day, they can choose from wounding, vampiric, and vorpal.

Spells for enhancing weapons have long been known to those who practice in the arcane aspects of the Al'Noth, however it is more often than not the weapon of another that becomes enhanced.
