Syphon Axe

A weapon of great power. Only one is known to be in existence: crusader, wielded by Sanjem, high executioner of the Holy Order.

A syphon axe is embued with magical power that drains the life force of those it slays. Each time life essence is extracted in this way it becomes trapped and serves to strengthen the weapon. This same life force can be unleashed during battle should the wielder desire, usually resulting in a strike of immense power.
