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.
