Swordtember Day 23 - Liberty

Gliding Gale

Weapon (Shortsword), rare (requires attunement)
The Gliding Gales is a unique sword blessed by an Archfey of The Fall Court that resides in a hidden forest on top of one of White spine Mountain peaks. It’s given to native denizens of that forest when they’re about to venture into the outside world. The blessing is called ‘Cloud Walker’, which allows those who wield the sword to become as light as a feather and control wind around them to a certain degree, allowing them to fly and even deflect arrows. Those who master this weapon can momentarily become one with the wind and slice through anything that it passes through.
–—---------------------------
This weapon has reach property, and your attack with this magic weapon deals an additional 2d4 slashing damage.
Variant: Pair Item
When you’re attuned to these two swords, it only counts as one magic item.
Featherweight. While holding the Gliding Gale, your body becomes light like a feather. Your step leaves no track, and You gain a flying speed of 60 feet, but you can’t hover. When you’re falling, Your rate of descent slows to 60 feet per round. In addition, you take no fall damage. Due to this ability, you have an advantage on Dexterity saving throw, but you have a disadvantage on Strength ability check and saving throw.
Wind Rider. While you’re attuned to this weapon, you can cast Warding Wind without spending a spell slot once per short rest. In addition, you can also cast a Steel Wind Strike spell without expending a spell slot once per long rest. When casting the Steel Wind Stike spell this way, your body momentarily turns into a giant eagle made of a strong gust of wind instead of disappearing, and you can use your melee attack instead of your melee spell attack.

I like to invent unique steps to attune to items so that the magic accepts you, and this one SCREAMS leap of faith to me. Holding these weapons in both hands and jumping from a high cliff to catch the rushing wind in the blades, soaring down to safety. Like most of the "cloud of daggers" weapon designs, I generally like the look of a bunch of floating blades that fling around as you swing the sword hilt. Very fun design, but maybe I'd change flight to a gliding jump distance, since I found that I needed to give flying to all of the party to avoid lone wolf syndrome with a certain player or give it to none of them. (sorry if it's wordy)

I'm glad you love them :D I hope it's not too hard to balance them, I'm still struggling in balancing stats >____<

I love your designs for these and the other magical items, I've already adopted plenty of them with some alterations for balancing. I lost it when I saw this just grants flight lmao 🤣 keep up the good work, can't wait for more!
