Lifesurge (Melee Weapon Magic Property)

Enchant Cost: +2

A lifesurge weapon boosts and sustains the wielder's life energy while they are in the throes of combat. The wielder gains a bonus on saving throws against necromantic effects — including the ability dilution/damage/drain, and essence omission/suppression/destruction powers of the undead — equal to the weapon's enhancement bonus.

In addition, whenever the wielder receives temporary hit points from any source, they may add the weapon's enhancement bonus to these temporary hit points; this does not stack for temporary hit points from multiple sources, and these points are lost if the lifesurge weapon is not being wielded.

In combat, the weapon's critical threat range is increased by +1 against undead; this will stack with the Keen magic property, Improved Critical, or any other feat, ability, or item property that increases critical threat range.

Finally, whenever a lifesurge weapon confirms a critical hit against an undead creature, it erupts with +1d8 points of positive (energy, uncommon) energy (+2d8 for weapons with a critical multiplier of x3, +3d8 if it is x4); the wielder may choose to deal this as damage to an undead target or to absorb half this amount into themselves as instantaneous healing, with the remaining positive energy dissipating.

Creation: Creator (Feat), Bailiwick Check (DC 23), a languid remnant (tier 1), and an item symbolic of the enchantment.
