Shadowblade

DESCRIPTION

On a successful critical hit, this magic longsword deals 2 points of bleed damage, which stacks with any bleed damage already caused by the attack. Each time the wielder strikes a blow that deals bleed damage with this weapon, s/he gains temporary hit points equal to the amount of bleed damage dealt. No temporary hit points are gained if the target was already bleeding, even for a lesser amount. Temporary hit points bestowed by the bloodletting kukri last for 1 minute.

In addition, for each point of bleed damage inflected, the weapon increases in “plusses” to match. For example, if a target is suffering from 2 bleed damage, the shadowblade is now +2 magic weapon versus that target.  If the weapon exceeds +5 (for example, the target has 7 bleed damage, so the weapon is effectively +7), other weapon effects can be added as a free action equivalent to the excess bonus. This secondary effect otherwise functions as the Magus Arcane Pool class ability.

Curse: The weapon’s wielder is under the effect of a permanent mythic darkness spell.  The darkness only affects the wielder.
