Blade of Shattered Veils

This silver-edged sword hums faintly as though it vibrates against unseen glass. This can be silenced or made louder at the owner’s whim. The wielder gains a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls. When swung, faint cracks of light shimmer in the air, like broken reflections. By slicing the air with intent, the wielder can pull a fragment of the veil between realities into existence, shaping it into an illusionary barrier.

Illusory Barrier (3/day). As an action, the owner slashes the air, creating a semi-real wall of glimmering fractured light that blurs and obscures anything behind the illusion. Multiple barriers can be created but concentration must be maintained to keep them for up to 1 minute.

To creatures behind it, the wall appears solid and blocks line of sight. Enemies must make a DC 16 Investigation check to recognize it as false. Until then, they treat it as a real obstacle. Even when identified as illusory, the barrier bends light unnaturally, granting creatures behind it three-quarters cover against ranged attacks and spells.

Illusory Slash. The sword deals an extra 1d6 psychic damage on a hit.

Reality Shear. Once per turn when you score a critical hit, the target must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened until the end of your next turn, seeing the barriers between realities shatter around them.
