Created and forged by Kagamiri as the legend goes, a Yovshin of renown.... possibly. The blade is tainted, with the forging process he was said to have used the blood from the heart of his sister. Cutting it out and bleed it along the metal to taint it, infusing it with strength and power until the blade was folded hundreds of times and dark Crystaal with ripples of red. That was at least some fo the legend, parts of it are changed with time to make Kagamiri seem more like a demon then a man, his exact origins and purpose of the sword unknown.
What is accepted though is that the sword is one of the early ones from the dawn of the Kitel Phard Dynasty nearly twenty six thousand years ago but some rumors and legends say it is older then that. From before the emperors and empresses began to bring people. Darker tales say it was forged by the hand of the bloodless empress who drove Kagamiri to name it originally Blooddrinker a blade that was so hungry and powerful it would never stop driving the one who held it to stop slaying others. The metal drinking the blood from their pierced heart.
Romantic thoughts and stories that have changed depending on the regions, depending on who is being told the tale. The facts of the blade are less obscure but it is most famous because of Kagamiri who was a Yovshin swordsmen, one of the more renowned on Atrisia until he stayed at the dark Fortress of the Dawn. Oe of the oldest and most ancient fortresses of the age. There he rose to be the commander and eventually went crazy. The reasons are uncertain, some say the sword drove him, others that from the battlements he spied a woman with pale skin.
Whatever the case, be it insanity or being driven to is by another. He slew the men under his command. Yovshin, servants and even the earliest communications they had in messenger birds. Everything perished while he went from room to room with only the dripping of his blade to tell where he was. Afterwards it passed through the hands of several others, eventually being taken by the Jade Empress in her unification wars. To unite Kitel Phard under who would become her son the first emperor the blade itself was sealed away.
There it would sit until its histories and tales were definitively written down thousands of years later by Oeana Tching who collected the tales and legends of the blade so that everyone could know the facts from the fiction about it. Even then it was and still is hard to understand the blood soaked history of the ancient sword which was why when Sawa returned to Atrisia seeking to fight her friend [member="Nine Lives"] she went to it. Remembering the place where they had first embraced, where Ni-Ne had defended her.
She broke the ancient seals, shattered the crystal encasing the sword and took it for her own blade. Still amazed by the sharpness she recognized it as a force blade, something that had been treated and created with alchemy allowing it to have properties. For one its blade never seemed to dull, its aura dark and a beacon to any who could sense the force. It was strong enough to deflect blasters and ground lightning but she knew that it was also vulnerable to the lightside of the force the jedi always spoke about.
Sawa took the blade's name as her own when she became a sith lord as well and hid it away using regularly her lightsaber but she always kept the sword close by. In time she started using it again when she returned to Atrisia itself and with the raising up of
Shoma Ike
and the return of
Nine Lives
to her life well she needed something that would compete with her ancient sword the hundred handed giant something that has passed through hands since the same age. awa's connection to the blade, her taking its name as her own when she became of Darth within the Sith and regular uses of it have turned the sword into something she is known for.Sawa has over the years preserved and touched up the sword.. with small power cells to increase the cutting power, with darkside augmentation to enhance it for use and above all feeding it those who she fights.. the blade hungers to be used and the more one holds it the more it drives the urge. Sawa has used it against the million handed collosus that Nine Lives uses and other force blades to improve its sharpness and its power as a darkside blade.
