Animosity

"Hate is a bottomless cup; I will pour and pour."

All mortals hate. To deny it is to reject a part of yourself. Embrace your strength, take up this tear of crimson night, and cleave the sky red.

Attuning to the weapon causes it to graft harmlessly into the flesh of your dominant hand and become a functioning appendage. While holding this weapon, you can take a Bonus Action to alter its form, turning it into a pattern of black and red fractals on your palm (for ease of storage), a black shard, or a clawed gauntlet, or reverting it to a Shortsword; the weapon will elongate only as far as the surrounding space allows.

You have a +3 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. In addition, attack rolls made with this weapon score a Critical Hit on a roll of 19 or 20 on the d20.

In certain forms, the weapon has the following additional properties while you are attuned to it.
