===Description===
 
Creates a talisman in the form of a blade. Use of the talisman swings it, causing damage to any dreamer or mare directly in front of the user.
 
The blade will disappear from the inventory after a certain period of time. Dropping the blade will cause it to disappear instantly, and it may not be [[Give|given]] to another dreamer. It can, however, be [[Show Talisman|shown]] to others.
 
===Plateau Effect===
 
For each level this art is Plateaued, casting time reduces, blade duration increases, and the damage associated with it grows, as shown in the following table:

===Art Research===
 
===Art History===
 
The blade has been through several changes in its history, all to achieve the goal of perfection. It was first created by the [[DreamWright]] [[Aeson Lore]], and his brother, [[Caidon]]. The two [[Lucidity|FateSenders]] worked extremely hard to bring this useful item into the dream from [[Cloudsbreak]]. They saw the need for a personal defensive weapon, able to be had by all, to defend against the terrible mistakes of the [[Entropy Coalition]]’s great mistake, ‘The Nightmares’, and for a few other reasons. Upon creating this grand tool, ‘The FateSlayer’, they released their knowledge to the public, and taught all they encountered the art (It so came at a later time, the Master DreamWrights decided that it would be a basic fundamental of the Dreamstate, and allowed all who came into the city, to have the art among their general knowledge). [[Aeson Lore|Aeson]] and [[Caidon]] didn’t realize they were only partly finished with the art, however. They had succeeded in presenting to the dream the easiest and best weapon to use by all standings, but had not fully experimented with the art. Had they done this, they would have found the reason that only [[Lucidity|FateSenders]] could wield the blade they had created, for any reasonable amount of time, and to inflict damage worthy of noting. The two had created the art using the two elements of their souls, that they had the most of, these being [[Lucidity]] and [[DreamSoul]]. Knowing that [[Lucidity|FateSenders]] Dream-wide had these same statistics in common, more [[Lucidity]] than all the others, and about as much [[DreamSoul]], explains why other Foci were unable to take advantage of it’s full potential. Research was then demanded by the city populous, to calm the unbalance created there.
 
After many attempts and failures by the other three foci, there came another [[DreamWright]] by the name of [[Togus]]. The [[Will|Gatekeeper]] had acquired the notes of the Brothers’ Lore, and (after much analyzing and frustration due to the sloppy and erratic scribbling) discovered the error they had made. He set out to recreate the item using his element, [[Will]], and also his [[DreamSoul]]. He had shortly after concluded his research, and brought the ‘[[GateSmasher]]’ to the city council, to allow his discovery to be tested, evaluated, and approved for teaching to the general Will focused public (which the FateSending brothers never did). The council quickly approved (being made up at the time of many [[Will|Gatekeepers]]), noting the error of Aeson and Caidon in hopes the other two foci would start their research in the art.

===Notes===
 
While casting the GateSmasher, the evoker must remain motionless, or the art fails.
 
The evoke cone for this art is gold.
