Since any thaumaturgy rite can be put into an item the easiest way to make a sword appear is an enchanted item that conjures one.  Say a sword hilt - that way you can walk around unarmed until you need it, then use one of its daily uses or (if they've all been used) take a mental stress to conjure the sword.

  I like the idea... kind of like a lightsaber style hilt that runs off magic vs tech.
Grab the hilt - poof - nice force blade, lightning blade, fire blade... sweet!

I had this thought for a character ive been dreaming of... but im still a n00b.

How would this work / be created and or invoked?

New to FATE
New to DFRPG
Been a few years back, but I've plate White Wolf RPG (Vampire / Warewolf), Cyberpunk, etc... so I'm not a total newb 

Looking for a group who has room for one more, or just some folks in getting together to start a group.
I live on the NW side of town - HWY 290 / 1960 area.

Any action abound?
