Material: Alchemized Durasteel.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Classification: Force Imbued Sword

Size: Large

Weight: Heavy

SPECIAL FEATURES

Imbued with the Force, allowing it to resist Lightsaber attacks. Nearly indistructable.

Projects an incredibly intense healing aura due to the magical enchantments on its blade, capable or repairing nearly anything wrong with a body, from poison, to mental damage, to severely damaged organs and broken bones, so much so being cut or stabbed by it does not hurt.

Velmorite crystals fused to the blade let out a painful chime that affects only Dark Adepts when struck.

Repels Force Spirits and is capable of injuring them.

Its touch can violently burn Dark Adepts and disrupts their access to the Force.

Drastically slows the rate of an uncontrolled fall.

Strengths:

Force Blade: Like all weapons properly imbued and enchanted with the Force, it is nearly indestructible.

I'm The Wolverine: Due to the hidden inscriptions of The Kolda-Bratha Calculus, The healing effects of the sword are not so much based on the light so much as a pernicious form of eldritch Time Magic, not healing the wounds around it so much as subtly rewinding time around the injuries so that technically, they can be said never to have occured to begin with. Though it takes at least an hour to heal nearly all injuries short of mortal ones, it will inevitably 'undo' the individual time lines of each wound and malady over the body. This effect extends in a ten meter radius beyond the sword itself and is constantly functioning.

Back off: The combination of Jedi Alkahest and the time affecting Formula that is the Calculus is a double whammy for Dark Spirits, not only capable of warding them off but doing serious injury that is genuinely difficult to recover from.

What sweet music it makes: The Velmorite crystals imbue a sonic damage quality that affects only living dark adepts and dark spirits when it is struck.

Keep on truckin': The Calculus Formula is so eldritch and foreign in nature that it is immune to the effects of an area void of the Force. Its wound unmaking, poison unmaking effect will function so long as the sword itself is intact.

Face it all, together...: Another effect of the Formula applied to the blade is that should one enter an uncontrolled fall while holding the blade, the time magic slows the speed of one's descent, no matter how high, to a managable, survivable, even gentle velocity.

Weaknesses:

Weight: This thing is seriously hefty. Don't wield it without exceptional strength.

Cannot kill: The "healing" effect is simply that strong. Cut a dude's head off? The magic will undo the fatal injury by healing the neck as swiftly as the blade passes through it. Stab someone through the heart? The magic will "pause" the area around the heart, leaving the body unaffected, unmaking the wound to the heart as it is pulled out. It cannot kill, period.

Force voids: Entering a force null area disables all enchantments save the time magic, rendering it destructable.

Not covered in your health plan: For all its power it cannot heal diseases.

Length: This is an Odachi, meaning not only is it heavy and alchemized, its also almost longer than is practical for battle.

DESCRIPTION

An ancient sword that once belonged to one of Nine Lives's masters, a Wookiee, the Sword of Mercy is an Odachi length Katana that has been enhanced into an Force Imbued blade strongly aligned to the light, so much so that it is capable of harming dark spirits and beings, the very sound it makes when struck with a lightsaber causing pain. These traits alone would make it desirable to possess, but what distinguishes this sword from others is a fragment of an arcane, magical, time affecting formula known as the Kolda-Bratha Calculus. The fragment secretly inscribed on the blade, shown only in ultraviolet light, is hardly justified as an example of its power--the whole formula is said to be so large you would have to inscribe it on the surface of an entire gas giant sized sphere to get it all down--but it serves as a small example of the Formula's power all the same.

The fragment's effect on the blade is often mistaken for a type of Force Healing. But the fragment on the blade is part of the section that deals with the Formula's effect on living tissue.

The sword does not "heal" so much as rewind the personal timeline of the wound's existance until it is removed and "retconned" out of it. Its an important distinction but in practical matters the difference matters little...Wound and poison related problems soon cease but it curiously cannot heal diseases. Further calling to attention to how eldritch the formula is, this effect continues even after entering a Force Null Area, which disables every other force related thing about the blade, though the sword is capable of being destroyed should that happen. As a final oddity, the time magic also seems to drastically slow the descent of an uncontrolled fall to safe, survivable levels no matter from how high up. It is unclear exactly who modified the sword, or even how they obtained this fragment. The Kolda-Bratha Calculus is infamously dangerous and getting your hands on even a small part is said to be nearly impossible, as it is only receivable through divine revelation, followed by subsequent temporary insanity. Whatever the case, the sword is a powerful tool in the right hands.

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

Manufacturer: Unknown

Affiliation: Nine Lives

Model: N/A

Modularity: No

Production: Unique

Material: Cortosis Weave Durasteel, Stygium, Arch Psy-Pire Blood

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Classification: Alchemized Sword

Size: Average

Weight: Light

SPECIAL FEATURES

Unique form of Alchemy imbued into the sword that increases its durability and cutting power the darker its surrounding environment.

Capable of accumulating psychic charge every nine kills that can either sustain Nine through feeding or being released in a wave of psychic energy that heals Light Aligned beings.

Can enhance Nine's Psy-Pire abilities, enabling her to control large animals using her blood, and creating a noise absorbing radius of ten meters around her or wherever the sword is pointed, as well as faster healing while asleep.

Increases ease of using Force Stealth related abilities

In Daylight, decreases Nine's nausea upon exposure to daytime conditions.

Capable of turning directed electricity back on its source

Nowhere near as heavy as normal alchemized swords.

Cannot be held by other species of vampire or any species of sentient that possesses similar traits.

Extreme lightsaber resistants.

Strengths:

I am the Darkness: Nine does her best work in the darkness, and this sword reflects that, as the darker it gets, the more cutting power it possesses, to the point that in pitch black conditions its capable of cutting cleanly through beskar or other saber resistant metals, or at least heavily damaging them. It also increases ease of any force stealth or camouflage she knows.

Weight: Psy-Pire Alkahest is different from other forms of Alchemy, relying on the blood of a Psy-Pire or Arch Psy-Pire to achieve its potent affects. As a result it does not come with some of the typical weaknesses of alchemized swords, such as immense weight, in fact being rather light for a sword.

Bias: Cannot be held by vampires not of the Psy-Pire strain.

Sunscreen: When it close proximity to Nine, it decreases her nausea in sunlight, allowing her to fight at near full strength, though the rest of her abilities as a Psy-Pire still cannot be accessed

Lightsaber Resistant: Due to its cortosis weaved Durasteel, Stygium, and Nine's blood, it possesses near total immunity to Lightsaber Attacks...one would have to repeatedly smack the blade over six thousand consecutive, full on blows from one to break the blade...and thats if Nine hasn't enshrouded it with the Force.

Enhancement: Greatly enhances Nine's Psy-Pire abilities--the psychic discharge she can create quadruples in range, all noise in a ten meter radius around her or wherever she points the sword and focuses is reduced to whisper levels, she heals even faster than she normally does while asleep.

Storage: Every nine kills made by the sword causes it to accumulate a psychic charge from the energy of the slain. When it limits are reached, Nine can either "drink" the energy accumulated on the sword or release it in a wave of psychic energy on a Llight Adept, if any are nearby, healing them.

Surge protector: The sword's resistance to lightning is fantastic, so much so that directed electricity will be turned back on its source so long as Nine channels her will through the sword.


Weaknesses:

Advance Sonic weakness: Much like its creator, it has a weakness to sonic attacks...directed sound is capable of shattering the blade if it sustains enough hits

Ion Weakness: Another thing it inherited from its reforger. If hit with an ion bolt, Nine will be unable to use any of her Psy-Pire or Force Abilities so long as she grasps it for the next ten minutes

Daylight weakness: While Nine feels less nausea in the swords proximity in daylight, this comes at a cost, it loses its sharpness, to the point it literally could not cut butter, thus becoming capable of little more than mild kinetic damage, its lightsaber resistance drops to that of only an average quality Cortosis Weave durasteel sword, able to take only a few blows before breaking unless enshrouded with the Force, and also loses its enhancing abilities, save for its ability to mute all sound in a ten meter radius, wherever it is pointed.

Reflection weakness: It takes all of Nine's focus to reflect lightning back on its source. This can be overwhelmed if the source is simply too strong or Nine is too mentally exhausted. She is also so focused while doing so it could cause her to miss threats from behind or to her side...

Void Weakness: Entering a Force Void would disable its abilities, even if removed afterward it would still be just and ordinary sword for about an hour, rendering it easily destroyed.

Not indestructible: Beyond its odder energy weaknesses it is not like a regular alchemized blade...despite its fantastic resistance, a lightsaber can still destroy it, though it would take a massive amount of effort to do so, and with significant amounts of pressure it will bend and break, and excessive heat of up to one thousand degrees for an hour will eventually melt it.

Mandalorian Steel: A weakness from the blood used to alter it. Mandalorian Steel can and will chip and damage it, actually having a fairly good chance at breaking it, even with its enhancements at full strength.

Poison: Organic venoms, particularly Vong venoms like amphistaff venom can eat through it.

DESCRIPTION

"Behold, I am The Hundred-Handed Giant.

Whoever'd wield me has Death for a Client

My edge bleeds The Wicked and The Just alike"

--ancient inscription on the blade itself

The Hundred Handed Giant, known in ancient tongues as Hyaku no kiki Kyojin has gone by many names throughout its blood soaked history, the anonymous participant in a hundred thousand violent feuds before it was wielded in a thousand different wars on Atrisia, passing through hands both virtuous and villainous. Its origin is shrouded in mystery--no one knows who originally forged this masterwork Katana that has killed for Millenia, gaining a mystique among the superstitious as an evil sword that thirsts for the blood of warriors.

During the "birth" of Nine Lives, the first Psy-Pires rampage through the Necropolis of Darth Shojo took her deep into its hidden areas...it was here the sword was found, resting atop a pile of human bones. Nine seized it and it became her go to weapon for centuries before going to sleep on her ship to wait the millenia out, and even served as her preferred weapon after her release.

Now, having at last embraced her variant of vampirism, Nine has also embraced a weapon she once regarded as that of a murderer. Applying her own unique take of Alkahest, corrupted by her psy-pire blood, Nine heavily altered the sword by applying half remembered techniques for forging Force imbued blades and Sith Sword creation. Psy-Pire Alkahest imbues weapons to take advantage of darkness or daylight, or even the blood of others to create potent and unusual effects reliant on sound and shadows on both weapons and armor, and absorbing psychic energy.

Though Nine is still not what would be considered a master Alchemist, her understanding of both sword creation and the effects of her blood nevertheless allowed her to take what was already an excellent blade and craft a unique masterwork that gives her a number of advantages in darkness, as well as greatly enhancing her abilities as a vampire to begin with, However it is not nearly indestructible, as most alchemical creations are...as strong as it is, it can be destroyed with ease in a number of ways. Nevertheless, for someone who does their best work in the dark, The Hundred Handed Giant should make a fine tool that will now and forever serve The Psy-Pires as a People.
