Dual Nature
At the beginning of each of your turns, choose one stance.
Divine Stance
Your attacks restore balance.

Antinomy Shift
Once per short rest, you may switch stances as a free action after every attack until the end of your turn.
Each attack alternates:
- Divine
- Devil
- Divine
- Devil
Each successful alternating hit deals an additional 3d8 force damage.
Judgment of Contradiction
Whenever you hit the same creature twice in one turn while alternating stances, it must make a DC 20 Constitution saving throw.
On a failure:
- It becomes vulnerable to your next attack this turn.
- It cannot regain hit points until the start of your next turn.
God and Devil's Accord
Once per long rest, you may awaken both halves simultaneously for 1 minute.
During this time:
- You gain a flying speed of 60 feet.
- You are immune to radiant and necrotic damage.
- Your weapon attacks deal maximum damage instead of rolling.
- Whenever you deal damage, choose:
- Heal an ally within 60 feet for half the damage dealt.
- Deal that same amount as force damage to another creature within 30 feet.
Ultimate Ability: Antinomy Severance
Once per week.
As an action, make one attack against a creature within reach.
If it hits:
Damage:
- 10d6 slashing
- 10d8 radiant
- 10d8 necrotic
- 10d10 force
The target must succeed on a DC 22 Constitution saving throw or:
- Be stunned until the end of your next turn.
- Lose all resistances and immunities for 1 minute.
- Cannot regain hit points for 1 minute.
On a successful save, it takes half damage and suffers none of the additional effects.
After using this ability:
- You gain one level of exhaustion.
- The sword cannot use this feature again for seven days.
Sentience
The sword is sentient.
- Intelligence 20
- Wisdom 18
- Charisma 24
It contains two personalities:
- God seeks justice, protection, and balance.
- Devil craves ambition, strength, and decisive victory.
If the wielder repeatedly favors one aspect, the neglected half may attempt to influence them through dreams or contested Charisma checks, creating interesting roleplaying opportunities.
Artifact Quirk
Every dawn, roll a d20:
- 1: The God half suppresses the Devil. You cannot enter Devil Stance today.
- 20: The Devil suppresses the God. You cannot enter Divine Stance today.
- 2–19: The blade remains balanced.
