Blade card
Version 0.16: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
The Blade card will provide the player with a cleaving effect with their current weapon, striking all targets adjacent to the player similar to using an Axe. This will not stack with the reaching effect of Polearms, nor does it provide any additional benefit for Axes. This also works with unarmed attacks.
This is applied as a status effect, so the player may switch weapons and retain the cleave until the effect expires.
Your <weapon> looks oddly sharp.
History
Prior to 0.16, drawing the Blade card would add a temporary brand to the player's weapon, or potentially animate the weapon at higher levels.
The Blade card could be found in the following decks over the past several versions.
