“	Rimescore is sentient, but it lacks a sense of being. It seeks to express its elemental nature and to perpetuate the same frost which it has been infused with centuries ago. On its own, the crystal is no different than a motionless elemental. However, if one were to embrace its power, it would become a parasite, merging itself with its user; two would become one in body and mind alike. We have witnessed this transformation in its current host, Asgeir.	”
—The Scholar to the Champion, during the events of Howling in the Dark

Description

This crystalline sword radiates with magical, frozen energy.

Special Effect: Allows the use of Cone of Cold.

Special Effect

Equipping the item allows the Champion to equip and use the Encounter power, Cone of Cold. The item does not need to be equipped for the power to be used.

Acquisition

• This item can be obtained during the events of Howling in the Dark at the Ancient Fane if the Champion has the Spellsinger/Electrum Flute key item. Breaking the connection of the Rimescore to Asegir will give the Champion the option to Destroy or Keep it.
  • Yourself - If the Champion keeps it, it will be permanently shaped into one of its three forms (of their choosing): Polar Edge, Glacial Spike, or Hoarfrost.
    • Raises Corruption by (+30) ^{(until 75)} .
  • Drifa - Must be present in the party. This will change her combat behavior; from a Level 5 White Mage to a Level 7 Black Mage equipped with the Rimescore itself.
    • Raises Drifa's Corruption by (+70).
  • Cait - Must be present in the party and has the Frostheart Set unlocked. Provides additional frost damage and stats of most of Cait's sets (see Staff and Rimebound Grimoire).
    • Cait gains no corruption from this.

Usage

• If Cait was given the Rimescore, or the Champion has any of its shaped forms:
  • Unlocks the Rimescore sex option with Cait
