Weapon (Odachi), Legendary (requires attunement) The daikatana is a magical Odachi, forged by Usagi Miyamoto in the 16th century, and is so powerful that it is able to cut through the fabric of time, allowing its user to open rips through time. Soul Eater. Whenever you kill a creature with the Daikatana, that creature's soul is stolen, powering the sword. The Daikatana regains 1 charge for each soul stolen. The sword is found with 0 charges, and it can accumulate up to 50 charges. Whenever a creature attune with the Daikatana, all of its charges are lost. Powered Blade. The daikatana have 1 power level for each 10 charges accumulated (up to 5 power levels). Attacks and damage rolls with it have a bonus equal to the current amount of power levels. It also have a glow that shed bright and dim light in a 5 foot radius per power level. Time Manipulation. You can spend the blade charges to unleash the following magical powers: You can spend 2 charges as a bonus action to teleport back to the position you were at the start of this turn, if the space is unoccupied. You can spend 3 charges as a reaction, after you or a creature you can see within 30 feet of you makes an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw, you can force the creature to reroll. You make this decision after you see whether the roll succeeds or fails. The target must use the result of the second roll. As an action, you can spend all charges to attempt to teleport to the past of the future. You can bring up to 10 creatures within 30 feet with you. Roll a d100. If you roll below the number of charges used, you teleport precisely to the place and time on the material plane you wanted to travel. On a failure, the DM determines a consequence (check the consequences for a failed wish). The 33 percent change on that spell description here represent a chance of losing the Daikatana, that is sent to a random location and era on the material plane.
