Users Class: Medical
The Range of the weapon: close range
Weakness:
-making the blade reach full power requires one to gather bone and muscle tissue from many individuals defeated in battle
-one victory can only make the blade increase by one stage regardless of how many bones the enemy has.
-although the blade is stronger the a normal steel weapon the blade is fairly fragile and can be shattered with any blow to the flat capable of shattering metals.
-The healing hands skills of medical ninja's also has a strange affect on the blade and can shut down the blades powers if ever directly applied to the blade.
Description: The blade starts out in it's weakest form, as a dagger, formed by ritualistically carving out ones own rib to form the blade then wrapped in muscle fiber to create a grip. the blade can only be enhanced by weaving bone into the blade with muscle fiber to create a bigger sword, the final stage being a massive greatsword, and not just any bone will do, it must be the bones of foes defeated in battle (Battle being a relative term it dose not need to be an honorable fight, a knife to the back is still a victory, nor necessarily even have to be a physical battle, a 'battle' of wits such as a game of chess can fill this requirement) the exact bones don't necessarily matter as long as a reasonable amount are gathered to for a blade, but typically at least one femur is require per stage. In addition a single individual can only ever increase the blades stage by one, regardless of how many bones the victim has. The blade, at each stage is supernaturally strong, blessed by the gravelord as it is, And is slightly stronger then normal weapons grade steel. When shattered the blade slowly repairs itself overtime as long as it's current owner still lives, if the blade is ever, somehow, lost forever one can reperform the ritual to create the dagger and start the blade's creation anew, although you will have to lose another rib in the process. when wielded by a non follower of the Gravelord's will causes the blades special abilities to quit functioning, at certain stages additional negative affects might happen they will be in the stage description if present


((Note: even though the word sword is used a lot here the blade's shape need not be a sword as long as the relative lengths are the same although stage 1 must always be a dagger. for example one could easily make the weapon a scythe or a spear with the fallowing sample chains))

Stage 1: Dagger
xxxxxxxx The first stage of the blade a dagger formed of one's own rib and ritualistically blessed by the gravelord, In this stage the blade is weak, having few special qualities. firstly it's edge is supernaturally sharp when cutting threw flesh, as well as being stronger then normal steel. The dagger always seams slick with a mild necrotoxin that quickly rots the flesh in a radius of 1inch around any wound left by the blade. Medical healing skills can restore the flesh, but if the rotting flesh is not cut out or restored within one week it starts to cause illness and slowly spread

When unleashed it rapidly escapes the blade in a 1 foot cone shape from it, contact with the miasma causes surface levels of flesh to slowly rot, and inhaling it causes nausea and blurry vision for 3 posts.
