Abilities
Central Weapon — A swordkeeper's torso houses a single weapon of a level no higher than the swordkeeper. While the swordkeeper is operational, the chamber requires four successful DC 32 Thievery checks to Disable Device to open; on a critical failure, the backlash deals 6d6 force damage (DC 30 Reflex save) to the creature attempting the check.
If the swordkeeper is Immobilized, Grabbed, Prone, or Stunned, both DCs are reduced by 2.
If the weapon is removed, the swordkeeper's echoblades vanish.
