Infinity (5e Equipment)
Weapon (Longsword), artifact
Legend has it that when the other races appeared on the world many Dwarves went to the surface to join them or lived on the surface, but one group of them did not forsake the ways so old, they'd rather live deep with in the depths so cold, they said it was not right for a dwarf to fly so high, they'd never seen the moons glow for they couldn't dig too low, not one race could best them though many detested them, when they first reached the underdark the drow heard them sing and thought it funny they were so foolish, but soon the elves of night skin with hair of ashen white would come to give them way should they hear their song. Down and down they went soon they found the underworld but even the demons learned to fear their booming song. At the depths of the fiery waste they found an ore unlike any other, solid black with white specks like stars they'd heard stories of from travelers and drow they had captured. They presented it to anything they thought might know of its origin. Troglodytes worshiped it as a god and attacked the Dwarves for it but lost, drow demanded its surrender and were wiped out when they threatened death on the Dwarves. Then the Dwarves knew it must be powerful and from it they forged a sword, one fit for their underking. The sword was black as the darkest depths and sparkled with white specks, the Dwarf Lord was pleased and he dubbed it Infinity. No one knows what happened to the Dwarf, but some believe the leader, after dying undefeated of old age, had his sons sell the sword so it could serve another noble warrior,
The sword is long and thick, but it seems it grows to be more fitting for whoever wields it. The blade features a thick middle about as thick as half of an ingot with the metal around it coming down into a blade, the top of it is in the of a square on its corner with a same shaped hole in the center but much smaller. upon feeling the center of the blade there are runes there in ancient Dwarven, though a dialect long lost dialect. The handle is black as well but clearly of a different material it seems to of wood with a white cloth wrapped around it for comfort, the pommel is simply a large black obsidian gem inside a wood holder. The weapon is cool to the touch and has a slight purple hue to its blackness and glows a similar hue. The weapon almost radiates with intellect and you feel smarter wielding it.

Destroying the Infinity. while the weapon is very hard to destroy it is not impossible, The weapon if removed from sheath in limbo will be destroyed in about 20 seconds as it's beautiful stars would be torn apart by the infinite void, the other way is simply speaking to return it to the stars, with a catapult, ballista, or a weapon of similar capabilities, or a bird the weapon could be sent up high enough for the sky to re-accept it and pull it up the rest of the way, leaving nothing but the handle behind.
