The artifact holds at least one demon bound to obey the commands and will of the wielder and advance their interests. When used a demon crawl's its way out of the object, and leap out, looking for enemies.
The demon in this iteration looks like a small creature of shadow, about the proportions of a human 10 year old, but stretched upwards to be thin and lanky with dark scales, blank white eyes, and clawed fingers. When firing at range, the shoot dark blades the dissipate after impact.
The demon has a mental connection with its user that the user can feel as long as the demon is alive. The user can hear them speak through this connection, and send commands.
This artifact is made by summoning a demon, making a deal with it, and binding it to the object in a long ritual.

The wire around Pol's wrist glows with a neon blue light. Pols hand disintegrates and from the stump a small portal emerges and from it flys a spray of blood that hangs in the air briefly defying gravity. The bloody spray is mixed with tiny nanomachines that coagulate it into individual cubes which quickly start to merge together into a rough voxel representation of the item before solidifying together. Once whole a quake travels through the voxels and they fall to the ground in a wet deluge soaking the area underneath. From inside of the voxel shape stands the item that was previously digitized now reassembled.
When something is initially digitized into the stash the same process with the hand happens but a laser shoots out and segments the target into the digitized cubes, leaving bloody rivulets where each cube is cut. Once the target has been segmented a large tendril of nanomachines shoots from Pol's wrist stump and start vacuuming up the cubes one by one.
