Balefire (Melee Weapon Magic Property)
You must be level 21 or higher to equip, wield or wear an item with this property.
When activated, a balefire weapon becomes a horrifying brand of brilliant blue-white flame encased in roiling billows of liquid orange-yellow fire and heaving liquid gouts of bright flame in all directions. These gouts scatter and spread on every successful attack, possibly damaging both friend and foe and inflicting fiery conditions upon the surroundings. A Balefire weapon sheds bright light to a radius of 50 feet, and dim light for another 50 feet. Note that it is impossible to Stealth while displaying a light source.
As a swift action the wielder may choose to apply all of the damage of a balefire weapon as fire damage until the end of the encounter. To change it back requires another swift action. This choice has no effect on the area of effect damage, which is always fire damage.
A balefire weapon adds 5d10 of bonus fire damage to all successful attacks. In addition, on each successful attack the wielder must choose one square of the target that is within their reach. That square is the center of the area of effect of a 5x5 blast of fire damage which inflicts the same 5d10 of fire damage. All creatures, friend or foe, within that space take the same 5d10 bonus damage roll.
A balefire weapon grants the wielder fine control of the terrible energies it unleashes. At the start of each encounter, the wielder may choose up to four allies, one of which may be the wielder themselves, who are not affected by the area of effect damage. This immunity persists for the chosen allies until the end of the encounter.
In addition, the fiery gouts rage and flare up from any surface within the area, walls, floors, the surface of any liquid (even ice), etc. All squares so affected inflict 5d10 of fire damage any time a creature enters them, even if they enter as a result of forced movement (as always, forced movement may be averted by falling prone). This effect persists until the end of the encounter. If an area is affected multiple times with this effect, it does not stack.
Note: If used with a single attack that includes multiple targets or multiple attacks (such as Whirlwind Attack or a Monk's Echoing Strike), the blast is only applied to one successfully struck target, chosen by the wielder.
