Sword Soul

Sword Souls have dedicated their lives to their blade, forming a bond with their blade so strong, they are willing to imbue their blade with part of their soul, becoming one with the weapon. This process results in domination in any combat scenario, being able to bombard their enemies with an arsenal of spells that come from their blade. 

The blades they use have been forged by a legendary blacksmith, by the name of Hirun. Although he has passed, his arsenal of blades seem unlimited, as he has spent the course of centuries crafting blades for this order, and in turn, they look after his family with the utmost respect and honor. 

Sword Souls have a strong sense of honor, usually only going for even fights. If they believe the fight is one-sided, they will not participate, as it is disrespectful to them to kill those who are not worthy to be killed by them. 

Hirun's Singing Sword

At level 3, after completing the training required to become a Sword Soul, one is given a legendary sword forged by Hirun. This sword has magical capabilities allowing for a more fluent combination of sword and soul. This sword acts as a greatsword, and has +1 on attack and damage rolls. You can only use Imbue Blade on this sword. Using it on any other weapons could have life ending effects on the caster.
