I can better describe it in its sheathe
The Prismfang’s Sheathe
The sheath is a seamless fusion of polished black alloy and crystalline inlays, mirroring the blade’s elegance. A single prismatic vein runs along its length, catching light and subtly shifting hues. Its ultra-thin profile hugs the blade perfectly, ensuring a silent, fluid draw.
A magnetized locking mechanism replaces a traditional strap, holding the sword effortlessly in place while allowing instant access. The sheath’s mounting brackets attach smoothly to the wielder’s hip, distributing weight for perfect balance.
When sheathed, the katana’s light-distorting properties extend to the sheath, creating a slight ripple effect around it—almost as if the sword itself resists being contained.
**The Prismfang Katana**
A weapon that **commands attention without excess**—every detail is engineered for **precision, beauty, and intimidation**.
**Blade**
The blade is made from an **unknown crystalline alloy**, looking **almost like polished glass**, but impossibly strong. Unlike traditional katanas, it has a **razor-straight spine with a subtle inward curve**, blending ancient craftsmanship with a futuristic edge. The surface shifts between **mirror-like reflection and prismatic shimmer**, scattering light in mesmerizing, controlled patterns rather than chaotic bursts.
When moved, the blade refracts light **just enough to distort its surroundings**, creating a subtle, almost **mirage-like effect**. The edge itself has a **faint, geometric engraving**, its patterns **changing subtly when viewed from different angles**—as if the sword is adjusting itself to its wielder's intent.
#### **Hilt & Guard**
The hilt is **wrapped in a seamless, synthetic weave**—cool to the touch and **adaptive to grip pressure**. Instead of a traditional tsuba (guard), the katana features a **sleek, angular frame** that extends slightly outward, glowing faintly with an **internal energy pulse** that reacts to motion. The glow isn't excessive—just enough to make it **noticeable in dim light**, a controlled beacon of deadly elegance.
At the pommel, there is a **small, embedded gemstone-like node** that serves as both an energy regulator and a counterweight, ensuring **perfect balance in any grip or stance**.
#### **Presence & Effect**
- **When drawn, it leaves a soft, fading trail of light,** as if the blade itself is slicing through existence with calculated intent.

(filled in with bulletproof glass and metal bars). The front windshield has stickers for the local police department, along with a Sons of Salem sticker and an aged sticker for an El Paso-based insurance company.
--------------------------------------------------------
* The car's diet and addictions: The Valor prefers fuel from the Valero Gas station in El Paso. However, it seems 'fine' with gas from the Shell. The car goes in to withdraw after a time without gas from Valero Gas station, This seems to be 'helped' if it is fueled with leaded gas, however, this seems to cause another addiction to surface.
--------------------------------------------------------
* Personality: The car is generally rather stubborn, along with this the car also has a short fuse causing outbursts ( Its outbursts can go from refusing to work properly to running people over, Go wild GM) this normally happens when the car doesn't get what it wants for prolonged periods, or when encountering something it doesn't like or doesn't understand. Through the years it has moved on to new things to hate primarily jumping on to new waves of media-sponsored panic, Its current main hate is Non Humans and Modified Humans (The car seems to be more stubborn along with a shorter fuse with said persons, GM again feel free to go wild)
Built-in a time of hate and fear, used to suppress new ideas. Info fed to it through sources of hate and fear, it has known nothing else to it through its life, and now in its old age, it reflects that hate and fear onto the world. One could say it is more like a scared old man than anything else.

The wearer's face is exposed normally, but when activated, a blue holographic visor flickers to life in front of the eyes. This HUD contains information about the soldier's ammunition and shield status, but more significantly can detect enemy combatants. Anyone nearby who is holding a weapon is painted with a red dot that follows them in real time. This allows the Future Soldier to fire at painted targets in the dark, detect ambushes lurking around corners, and grants an overall tactical advantage.
Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action.
You automatically detect all people wielding weapons within 300 feet of you for the next hour. This includes any who come within range during the duration. You have a sense of how many valid targets are nearby, as well as their distance and direction.

The new appearance is illusory; it will hold up to scrutiny, but its composition is not altered and it gains no new functionality. Any attempt to use it for a function which it cannot perform (for instance, making bread look like a knife and then trying to stab someone) will cause the illusion to fail or allow a Perception check to see through the illusion, at the GM's discretion.
