Virtual Sizing

A virtual sizing sword looks like a regular size sword until used.

"So you're six feet tall and trying to adventure with a 40-foot sword. How's that working out for you?"

Let's face it, there's a certain attraction to carrying a weapon that's ridiculously large for you. But carrying it around in everyday life, even everyday adventuring life, is impractical at best.

The Virtual Sizing enhancement works in similar fashion to the sizing^MIC enhancement, but instead of actually changing size, the weapon remains the same size at all times. When used, however, a ghostly outline of the weapon's virtual size appears, and for all purposes (including reach, threatened area, damage, weight, and penalties for wielding an oversize weapon) the weapon counts as being it's virtual size. The effect is automatic, requiring no activation from the user.

The virtual sizing weapon can only be used to virtually increase a weapon's size, it cannot make the weapon smaller than its base size. The weapon's virtual size category remains the same until changed, a mental command requiring one standard action.

Faint Evocation; CL 3rd; Craft Magic Arms and Armor, spiritual weapon; Price: 1,000 gp.
