From vengeance, we turn to fire. The Flame Tongue bears a handle made of brass, with a long blade that seems to glow red in the right light. A bright red gem sits at the base of the blade. In times of need, you need only to speak a command word (anything of your choice, something like “Ignus!” would work well).
When this word is spoken, fire blasts out from the base of the blade, and soon after, the entire blade is wreathed in flames. This fire does not harm the wielder, but on top of the damage bonus it provides, 80 feet of light will be sure to help guide your party’s way—even in the darkest of dungeons.
Just imagine your character taking a single step towards the enemy, before drawing the Flame Tongue, shouting a word in Elvish, and watching in awe as the blade bursts into flames.
