Blade of the Undying

The Blade of the Undying is a rare and eerie katana, a masterpiece forged by the renowned swordsmith Kawasaki Yurumani for a dying champion of the Yurami samurai. Following the death of its master, the blade became corrupted, infused with the essence of a malevolent demon. The sword now hungers for the life force of its enemies, granting its wielder the power to drain their vitality. The Blade of the Undying exudes a dark aura, resonating with the corrupt power of the demon within.

Due to its rare craftsmanship and dark, magical properties, the Blade of the Undying is valued at approximately 10,000 gold pieces. Its true worth is often higher to those who seek to harness its life-draining power.

The Blade of the Undying was the final masterpiece of Kawasaki Yurumani, crafted for a dying champion of the Yurami samurai. With the champion's death, the blade was corrupted by a malevolent demon, transforming it into a weapon of dark power. The katana's dark history and its ability to drain the vitality of its victims have made it a feared and coveted weapon among those who tread the path of darkness.
