Daemon Soul Items

Daemon soul items are weapons, armor, and magical items created by trapping the soul of a daemon in the item during creation. This gives the item extraordinary powers, and often carry a high price for the wielder.

Daemon Blades
The most common form of Daemon soul items are weapons.

Creating Daemon Blades

Daemon blades are created in dark rituals by powerful wizards. The process causes the weapon to absorb the essence of a daemon, which is summoned for the creation. The power of the daemon has a direct effect on the powers of the weapon. Any bladed weapon can be used in the creation process. The daemon that is absorbed continues to exist within the blade and can communicate with the wielder. The daemon in the blade will try to control the actions of the wielder and drive them to spill as much blood as possible.

Powers

All daemon blades are sentient with a very high will power. It is difficult to resist the mental influence of the blade. The magical powers of the blade very depending on the components used and the demon summoned. Standard magical effects can also be imbued on the blade.

Destroying a Daemon Blade

Destroying a daemon blade is perhaps the most difficult chore anyone could want. A daemon blade must be used to kill a daemon to destroy the blade. If the blade is still in the daemon when it dies the power of the blade will be absorbed by the dying daemon’s departing soul.
