These fearsome swords are forged for proven Githyanki warriors.
Special silver swords are given to Githyanki warriors of 9th level or higher. They are usually greatswords or longswords, but can be any weapon that is categorically a sword. This sword looks like a standard weapon while still in its sheath, but when drawn, it transforms into a column of silvery liquid, altering the weapon’s balance round by round as the blade’s shape flows and shimmers. Githyanki silver swords count as silver for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction. Despite being rare magical weapons, silver swords are not unique and can be enhanced as if they were mundane.
Silver swords are created by and unique to the Githyanki because they require rare astral diamonds in their creation. These diamonds are mined inside the mountainlike corpses of dead gods that float in the Astral Plane: corpses that the Githyanki happen to build their cities upon.
A silver sword contains up to 10 energy charges, with an additional +3 per point of raw enhancement bonus of the weapon to a maximum of 25 at +5. These charges, once expended, are regained at the rate of 1 per round that you do not use any of the weapon's arts. All save DCs for weapon abilities are 10 + ½ BAB or ½ manifester level + Wisdom bonus.

Any amount of energy charges over the weapon's maximum is lost if not used within 1 round.
Destroy Magic (3): A creature or object struck by this art is affected by a targeted version of dispel psionics with a manifester level equal to your BAB or manifester level. This is a Unique Attack Modifier.
Seal Magic (3): A creature struck by this art must make a Will save or lose the ability to use spells, psionics, spell-like abilities, or psi-like abilities for 1d4 rounds. This is a Unique Attack Modifier.
