Show
Despite being dyed a deep black, the natural deep purple of the somnis from which the pike's head is forged shimmers faintly, the effect reminiscent of a slow moving lava flow cooling at the surface. The head is a traditional leaf shape with two extended wings from its base edged with razor-edged barbs. The shaft is long and nicked with countless marks of battle, the wood a dark ashen gray with age. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph. A strange necrotic haze radiates from the pike. A strong aura of holy light radiates from the pike.
There appears to be something written on it.
A tiny strip of gold vellum secured around the haft of the black somnis pike reads, "~~Nightstorm~~."

---- Animalistic Spirit Weapons ----
=General Script Information=
This is a weapon with the spirit of an animal trapped within it.
The spirit is wild and must be tamed by unleashing it against like-level foes (successful hits), as well as successful parries (melee/runestaves) or evades (UCS/ranged) from like-level foes during combat.
If not fully tame, the spirit within can backlash upon the owner.
Allegiance can be changed, but the new owner must work off the trust gained by the previous owner.
When striking, there is a chance the spirit will unleash Animalistic Fury flares.
=Alteration Guidelines=
* Alterations to the 15/15/15, long and show of this weapon are fine.
* Some merchants can change the spirit color, spirit call, spirit group, or how the spirit looks.
NOTE: You cannot change the general type of animal, such as changing a large feline to be a canine, except using certificates.
As well, each spirit type only has certain pre-approved nouns allowed.
=Features=
* Animalistic Fury Flares (Tier 4 of 4)
The spirit within lashes out with a stampede. (Damage Type: Disruption)
Flares are currently: ON [RUB to toggle]
* Revenge Flares = Unlocked
On a successful parry (melee/runestaves) or evade (UCS/ranged), there is a chance to unleash Animalistic Fury flares. You must be in a forward or greater stance and be an active combatant in combat for the spirit to react.
NOTE: Power of this ability is tied to the Flare tier.
* Wild Backlash = Unlocked
When Animalistic Fury flares hit, the spirit within lashes out with its untamed anger, causing a momentary reduction in the target's DS and TD.
NOTE: Power of this ability is tied to the Flare tier.
* Savage Power = Locked
Once an hour, draw on the power of the spirit within your weapon for an increase in AS, CS and critical padding by CLENCHING the pike.
* Flavor Actions (Tier 1 of 3)
At this tier, this weapon captures the following: GET, DROP, RUB (Flares On/Off), WHISTLE.
* Tameness/Affinity
Tame the spirit to prevent it enacting its rage upon you.
Only one person can have allegiance to this weapon's spirit at a time.
The feeling of this spirit toward someone else is tame (Level 12 of 12).
NOTE: To switch this weapon's allegiance to you, you must drop the weapon's tameness to the previous owner by damaging like-level creatures with it or successfully parrying (melee/runestaff) or evading (UCS/ranged) attacks from a like-level foe while in active combat.
