The tooth of an ancient amethyst dragon has been sharpened and carved into a jian. The double-edged blade is four feet long, and although swords of this length and make are typically wielded with two hands, the lightness of the material allows for single-handed use. Split down the middle, a thin strip of ruby is forged into the blade, from the tang all the way up through the jianri. The hilt is made of gold, but instead of housing the typical ninety degree quillons of a crossguard, it forms the symbol of Yoba. The jianba stems down from the center point of the hushou, which is similar in shape to a 'W' and composed of multiple golden prisms, and the outer poles run parallel to the grip at half the length of the jianba. On each face of the geometric hushou, runes for protection are etched into the metal and inlaid with topaz. The jiantan is a ring of gold with a little golden spire, almost the form of a petal, set with an aquamarine carved into a similar teardrop shape, and on either side of the petal there are two small, curved spikes protruding outward.
The jianqiao is made from soft leather and hardwood, patterned along the spine with finely etched with runes inlaid with gold. Once attuned, you may use an action to return both the sword and scabbard to you, regardless of the plane you or the sword are currently on. If the sword is cursed or damaged in any way, once it spends the duration of a short rest within the scabbard it is returned to its normal state. If the scabbard is damaged in any way, regardless of the sword's state, if the sword and scabbard spend the duration of a long rest together, both are returned to normal.
