Day 06 - Emotion
Emotion - "a strong feeling deriving from one's circumstances, mood, or relationships with others."

Can you imagine a blade so versatile, it can change traits based on your emotions? Regardless of what the emotions are, this blade can be a deadly weapon! The core of the blade is made of a wide range of crystals fused together by the raging fires of a hell that contains the emotions of a million souls instilled within it.
When held by its wielder, the core will project the feelings experienced by the wielder through the blade and change the very nature of the sword itself. This process can be completely unpredictable and sometimes cause pain and suffering to the wielder themselves!

Some things are best left untouched!
