Raven’s Wing
Raven’s Wing is an ominous axe crafted from blackened steel, with a hauntingly beautiful raven feather embedded in its handle. Its blade is etched with intricate patterns that seem to shimmer in the darkness, and the weapon seems to hum with a quiet energy that only its wielder can sense.1
A weapon of Rakash
Raven’s Wing is a weapon of Rakash, the deity who presides over the realm of death and the afterlife. When it strikes, the blade lets out a chilling caw that echoes across the battlefield and unnerves the wielder's enemies, and its most telling blows carry a curse from Rakash.1
Death feeds its bearer. Whoever fells a creature with the axe feels a surge of vitality, and the axe allows its wielder to question the corpse of the slain and learn what the dead knew.1
