This spell is similar to Darklight's planar weapon. It conjures a large, weightless weapon (speed factor 3), such as a two-handed sword or a polearm, which can be used in total defiance of any restrictions. It acts as a weapon, +5 in every respect, and does 5d12 points of special planar damage. To determine which plane its energies are drawn from, roll on the following table:

01-50. Elemental plane. Roll 1d4 to determine which:
1. Air. The weapon can release a gust of wind upon command, once every round, and can keep vaporous creatures at bay. It allows one to attack aerial creatures normally. It does double damage to earth or rock based creatures.
2. Earth. The weapon petrifies a creature on a natural 19 or 20. It can carve a path through solid rock at a rate of MV 4 per round. It does double damage to gaseous or aerial creatures, and can attack earth-based or rock-like creatures normally.
3. Fire. The weapon can emit a path of flame, 3 yards long, upon command (does burning hands damage as if cast at twelfth level of experience), and can melt ice at the rate of 3 cubic yards per round. It allows one to attack flame-based creatures normally, but does double damage to liquid creatures, water-based, or cold-using creatures.
4. Water. The weapon, if a hit is made on a creature, can attempt to "drown" the creature (assuming it is air-breathing) by filling its lungs with water. Thereafter, it must make a successful Constitution check at -4 upon every hit or take an additional 3d10 drowning damage. It can soak any three adjacent 1-yard squares with water, extinguishing normal fires, upon command. It also allows one to attack liquid creatures normally. It does double damage to fire-based creatures.

51-60. Para-elemental plane. Roll 1d4 to determine which:
1. Ice. The weapon causes a creature to freeze stiff for 5d10 rounds, taking 4d10 extra damage if it hits on a natural 20. It can freeze up to 1 cubic yard of liquid per round of touch. It allows one to attack creatures of ice normally, but does double damage to earth-based and air-based creatures.
2. Magma. The weapon causes items touched to melt or become incinerated when it touches them, with no saving throw. On a natural 20, it does quadruple damage to normal creatures (quintuple to vulnerable creatures). It allows one to attack lava creatures normally, but does double damage to water-based or air-based creatures.
3. Ooze. The weapon coats a creature with mud and slime, and causes their lungs to fill up with ooze (they must then make Constitution checks for 10 rounds or take 2d6 drowning damage per round). It allows one to attack slime or ooze creatures normally, but does double damage to fire-based and air-based creatures.
4. Smoke. The weapon causes 5d6 extra suffocation damage on a natural 19 or 20. It can fill six 1-yard squares per round with smoke, which functions as normal smoke (the wielder is immune to negative effects of generated smoke). It allows one to attack mist or smoke-based creatures normally, and does double damage to water or earth-based creatures.

61-70. Positive quasi-elemental plane. Roll 1d4 to determine which:
1. Lightning. The weapon knocks a creature back up to 15 yards on a natural 19 or 20, with a clap of thunder and 4d10 extra electrical damage. It allows one to attack electrical beings normally, and can do double damage to metallic, earth-based, or water-based creatures. Also, it is +6 to-hit against opponents with metal armour (because it is transmitted through such protections).
2. Minerals. The weapon on a natural 18, 19 or 20 has a 50% chance of severing (as a sword of sharpness), otherwise the creature is petrified. It allows one to attack crystalline or mineral creatures normally, but does double damage to air-based or particulate (dust or sand) creatures.
3. Radiance. The weapon turns an undead or shadow-creature, and on a natural 19 or 20, blinds a normal creature for 5d10 rounds. It emits light out to a 120-foot radius. It allows one to attack creatures of light or radiance normally, and does double damage to shadow-based creatures or undead.
4. Steam. The weapon causes a normal creature to pass out from heat exhaustion, taking 4d8 extra damage, on a natural 19 or 20. It emits six 1-yard squares per round full of vapour (which does not hinder the wielder at all). It allows one to attack mist or vaporous creatures normally, and does double damage to flame (not purely heat-based) creatures or to cold (not purely water-based) creatures.

71-80. Negative quasi-elemental plane. Roll 1d4 to determine which:
1. Ash. The weapon causes 5d8 extra cold damage on a natural 19 or 20. It lowers the temperature in a 60-foot radius by 40?F every round (except the caster's body temperature). It allows one to attack ash-based creatures normally, and does double damage to flame or heat-based creatures.
2. Dust. The weapon causes 5d8 extra deterioration damage on a natural 19 or 20. If held in contact with solid material, it breaks down 1 cubic yard per round of such, leaving behind only fine dust. It allows one to attack particulate (sand or dust) creatures normally, and does double damage to crystalline, rock, or earth-based creatures.
3. Salt. The weapon causes 5d8 extra dehydration damage on a natural 19 or 20. If held in contact with organic materials, it desiccates them completely in 1 round. It allows one to attack salt elementals normally, and does double damage to water-based or liquid creatures.
4. Vacuum. The weapon causes 5d8 decompression damage on a natural 19 or 20. It sucks nine 1-yard squares per round full of air into oblivion (the caster has no problems breathing), creating gale-force winds and having worse effects in enclosed spaces. It allows one to attack creatures of vacuum normally, and does double damage to air-based creatures.

81-90. Border plane. Roll 1d2 to determine which:
1. Astral. The weapon is invisible, but ignores all physical barriers to attack. It can cut a creature's silver cord on a natural 19 or 20 (assuming they are projected). It does double damage to creatures from the astral plane. A normal creatures isn't able to heal from its wounds unless magically healed (as the damage is to the being's aura).
2. Ethereal. The weapon is faintly visible as a ghostlike dagger, but ignores all physical barriers to attack. It attacks ethereal, spirit, or in-phase creatures for double damage. A normal creatures isn't able to heal from its wounds unless magically healed (as the damage is to the being's spirit).

91-95. Material plane. Roll 1d2 to determine which:
1. Negative material plane. The weapon drains two levels or Hit Dice of life energy on a natural 19 or 20. The weapon has no effect on undead creatures, but does double damage to creatures with a link to the positive material plane.
2. Positive material plane. The weapon causes its special damage as healing to any living being, but if the being is already at full hit points, this applies as "damage". This "damage" is actual, but does not count as pulling a creature below full hit points in terms of this spell. On a natural 18, 19 or 20, it acts as a mace of disruption versus undead. Undead take double damage in any case from this weapon.

96-98. Outer plane. Roll 1d20 to determine which:
1. Seven Heavens. This weapon is gleaming white, and radiates golden light. It repels evil creatures as a fear spell, 15-yard radius. It does double damage to chaotic evil creatures, and cannot strike lawful good creatures. It can spray holy water upon command in a cone 1-yard base by 10 yards long with a 5-yard maximum spread.

7-9. Limbo. This weapon randomly shifts colour, composition, and radiance every round. It can strike any creature who can be hit by +5 weapons. Any spell effect directed at the wielder is changed into a wild surge.

99-00. Unusual, demi-planar. Roll 1d4 to determine which:
1. Demi-plane of electromagnetism. The weapon is +6 to-hit against opponents clad in metallic armour. It can repel or attract metal objects with 20 Strength within a 10-yard radius at command. On a natural 20, it knocks an opponent back up to 12 yards for 5d6 extra impact damage. It does double damage to creatures of a ferrous composition.

On a natural 20, it throws an opponent 1d4?1d10 days into the future (or the past - at the DM's option).
4. DM's option. This can be as strange as you like. It can be a weapon composed of the mists of Ravenloft, of the phlogiston, or of some far distant and really bizarre plane of the DM's own devising.

The material component is as with lesser planar weapon.
