Charon's Claw (sword)

Charon's claw is a magical weapon consisting of a rapier and a gauntlet. The rapier has the ability to voraciously absorb life essence from both the target and the wielder. It's wicked black blade is capable of producing thick curtain like clouds of ash summoned from the hellish plains. The gauntlet is a lacquered black adorned with red filigree. This device allows the wielder to grab and absorb magical energies, dispelling magically effects and snatching them from the air as they are cast, even other targets. The two items make a potent combination, allowing the wielder to avoid the domineering ego of the sword.
