This is a fantastic product that adds a new arcane background to the game and provides some unique mechanics that allows some fun customization. If you are looking for a way to emulate a 3.5 D&D style "Soul Blade" in your games, this is the product for you. I've used it in a Savage Eberron game to great effect and the player had tons of fun with it. I am interested in seeing a version more on par with the new Fantasy Companion Arcane Backgrounds, but this is perfectly balanced as is and you should bring this to your table ASAP!

This product is short, sweet, and I think appropriately priced. It hits a specific niche that I appreciate, that of the Gloomblade, Soulknife, Psychic Warrior, Psylocke from Marvel, etc. And the fact that it is customizable enough to hit all of those examples is of particular merit.

The book is one Arcane Background edge and one Power edge that is a direct upgrade to the Spirit Weapon.

My rating is based entirely on how well I think this product succeeds at it's intent, which I say is 5/5.

This background book really works for any magical setting. I've made NPC's and unique weapons using this ruleset and think its a wonderful addition to the table.

Excellent Arcane Background to play characters summoning magic weapons. Very good for Fantasy, Wuxia, Psionics, even for Cyberpunk/Shadowrun, and Sci-Fi. The document is easy to understand, weapon design is very flexible yet pretty simply and quick to go. Sure you can create classic weapons like spear, hammer, dual blades, sword and shield, but also exotic choices like returning boomerangs, Zeus bolt, bear paws, electric whip... I had a lot of fun using that Arcane Background.

This is a really well written Arcane Background. I know that it is part of a setting Ron is working on and I cannot wait until I have the chance to see the whole setting in action! If you like the idea of a Warrior Mage with a psychic weapon, this is prefect for you.

When I first read over The Warrior Adept, I found myself excited by each feature as I read through it. By the end, I was outright giddy. Ron nailed it with this product.

This fits snuggly into any setting that features individuals who can manifest a psychic/magic weapon from sheer will and who can enhance their own abilities with powers. The options for enhancing the Spirit Weapon are flexible, allowing players to customize it to suit their combat styles.

Conveniently, I'm kicking off a new Savage Eberron campaign, and I'm including this as an option for anyone who wants to play a kalashtar psychic warrior/soulknife.

A well thought out Arcance Background that covers a needed trope: magical weapon users. The AB is flexible enough to allow for unique customizations and localizations in your particular settings.

The "flaws and features" aspect of the Spirit weapon is new and unique. It doesn't seem like it will bog things down too much, but it is hard to comment without seeing it in play. An extra once per rank Edge makes choices regarding advancement very tricky - and this is not a bad thing!

From what I understand the author has playtested this with real gamers around the table. In my opinion, that increases its credibility a great deal.
