Shadow Dagger
Hand, Ignores Armor, Precise, 0 weight
This dagger is made from shadow itself, slightly shifting like a thick black wispy mist. If it is dropped by its owner (or otherwise removed from his grip) it will dissipate in a tangling swirl of shadowy mist that retreats into nearby darkness. But is is not gone. With a thought, it can be summoned into the hand of its owner. Doing so takes a few seconds, as the blade reforms from swirling shadowy mists pulled from the nearby darkness. If the owner is ever slain the dagger will form in his hand (if he is not already holding it), awaiting a new owner to come claim it. And short of other magical intervention, this is the only way the dagger can change owners.
This little guy was inspired by Brandon Sanderson’s Shard Blades in the Stormlight Archives… thanks for the inspiration, sir!
Awesome. Did you pick up the new book?
I started reading the new one only to realize I forgot so much of the first one.
