system window
great!! The extra katana shall be kept in your inventory
system window
The options are
system window
1. **Elemental Control**: The katana can channel and manipulate elements like fire, ice, or lightning, allowing the wielder to unleash elemental attacks or create barriers.
2. **Phasing Blade**: The blade can temporarily phase through solid objects, making it capable of cutting through barriers or bypassing armor.
3. **Soul Binding**: The katana has the ability to capture and bind the souls of defeated enemies, allowing the wielder to call upon their abilities or knowledge.
4. **Dimensional Rifts**: The katana can open small rifts or portals in space, allowing the wielder to teleport short distances or access hidden realms.
5. **Energy Absorption**: The blade can absorb energy from attacks or surroundings and redirect it as a powerful energy blast or use it to enhance the sword’s sharpness and strength.
6. **Time Distortion**: The katana can manipulate time within a limited area, either slowing down or speeding up time to gain a tactical advantage in combat.
7.**Blood Blade Enhancement**: The katana can absorb the blood of its targets, using it to temporarily enhance the blade’s sharpness and strength. The more blood it absorbs, the more formidable the katana becomes, allowing it to cut through tougher materials and deal increased damage.
system window
It is important that you read the uses thoroughly
system window
a choice once made cannot be changed
Ravenna
3 or 7 which is more cruel?
system window
I cannot disclose that since it is upon the users as how you use it
Ravenna
do the zombies still have their soul or even fragments? Or do they have blood?
system window
Yes the zombies have both
Ravenna
Ok then option no 3
system window
great choice, a choice fitting of your past nature
system window
.............. Now the last is the option to assist your ability
system window
1. **Spectral Blade**: The katana’s blade can temporarily become ethereal, allowing it to cut through spiritual entities or barriers, and bind their souls more effectively.
2. **Ethereal Resonance**: The katana can emit a resonance that weakens the souls of enemies, making it easier to capture and bind them, and also amplifying the katana's power with each soul bound.
3. **Soul Infusion**: The katana can temporarily merge with the souls it captures, gaining their abilities or attributes, such as strength, speed, or magical powers, depending on the souls’ qualities.
4. **Wraith Summon**: The katana can summon wraith-like manifestations of the bound souls to aid in combat or perform specific tasks, using their abilities to enhance the wielder’s effectiveness.
5. **Soul Chain**: The katana can create chains or tendrils of spiritual energy that ensnare and bind souls, allowing the wielder to control or draw upon the souls from a distance.
6. **Phantasmal Ward**: The katana can create protective barriers or wards around the wielder using the souls it has bound, providing defense against both physical and spiritual attacks.
7)**Ethereal Cloak**: The katana grants the wielder the ability to become partially or fully invisible by drawing on the souls it has bound. This ability allows the wielder to blend into their surroundings or move unseen by enemies, making them highly elusive. While active, the wielder can also move silently and pass through shadows, enhancing their stealth capabilities during combat or reconnaissance.
