Weapon

Scythe Whip

Created by Lovelace

This legendary weapon bears the dark legacy of a craftsman who dared to challenge the divine. The Scythe Whip is a masterwork of obsidian-black metal adorned with crimson etchings that seem to glow faintly in dim light, while its matte black hilt provides a secure grip even in combat. The weapon seamlessly transforms between two forms: a full-length scythe with a wickedly curved blade, or a flexible whip with a scythe head at its tip. When manifested as a scythe, it grants advantage on attack rolls against Large or larger creatures, and when coiled as a whip, it extends up to twenty feet and can strike with supernatural precision. The weapon whispers warnings of divine retribution to those who wield it, occasionally showing visions of the original wielder's flight from celestial wrath. Any creature struck by the Scythe Whip must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be filled with dread, suffering disadvantage on its next attack roll. The weapon cannot be destroyed by conventional means, as it was forged with the express purpose of piercing immortal flesh. Those who carry it for too long may find themselves hunted by forces beyond mortal comprehension, forever marked by the curse of its creation.
