Nebular weapons were released at the June 2018 Duskruin in the Penitent Petitioner Shop.

During the day, nebular weapons grow stronger (+ to AS) from the moment the sun sets until midnight (+ 6 to AS) when they are at their strongest. As the night wains, so does their power and after sunrise, they grow even weaker until noon (-4 to AS) when they are at their weakest.

This is a Nebular Weapon that grants its wielder the power of starlight during the hours of the night by giving a bonus that increases as the night reaches its apex. However, as the night wanes, so do its powers, and it begins to give a minus during the day.

The falchion has access to the following verbs at its current tier of 1 (OTS) out of 4: rub, salute, and tilt.
