Help finding a weapon


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


Hello forum folks!

Just looking for help finding a specific magic item. A friend and I were discussing a sword that could "throw" beams of energy from it. I thought I remembered a npc that had a sword that did just that, but I can't recall which setting, or book its located in. I was under the impression it was from a tian xia setting.

I believe it was a Katana, possible wooden? Maybe in Jade Regent?

I know there isn't a whole lot of info, but I've only ever seen it once.

Thank in advance for any help!


The core rulebook has the flame tongue, a +1 flaming burst longsword that can shoot a fiery ray 1/day.


Jade Regent Book 6:
Karusetsu, the Cutting Light wrote:
This exquisitely detailed +3 nodachi (Ultimate Combat 133) comes sheathed in a black-lacquered scabbard with gold filigree. Its hilt is wrapped in red dragonhide, and a single golden feather hangs from the pommel. Karusetsu enables its wielder to execute a flourishing slash three times per day in the direction of a single distant opponent (i.e., one not already engaged in melee combat with the wielder) up to 60 feet away. This flourishing slash projects a plane of scintillating force across the intervening distance, functioning as a ranged attack with a thrown weapon using the wielder’s highest base attack bonus. On a successful hit, the blade’s cutting light deals 4d6+3 points of force damage to the target, with a threat range of 18–20 and a critical multiplier of ×2. In addition, a creature struck by the cutting light must succeed at a DC 14 Reflex save or be blinded for 1d4 rounds.

You're my hero! Thank you so much for including the book and description of the weapon!
