Flaming burst

Flaming burst was a weapon enchantment that caused flames to sheathe a weapon and explode against a target.

Powers
In addition to serving as a flaming weapon, a critical strike against a foe triggered an explosion of fire against them. It would do this even if the flames were not sheathing the blade.

The flames that enveloped the weapon did not harm the wielder. Missile weapons conferred this ability on any ammunition fired from them.

Creation
The creator must use flame blade, flame strike, or fireball to add the flaming property.

Uses
Some veteran Thayan gladiators had their horns, claws, and other natural weapons enhanced as flaming burst weapons.
