Blood Biter
A massive sword made with the teeth of supernatural monsters.
Mechanics & Inner Workings
All Blood Biters cause Unstoppable Bleeding with each successful hit (on targets capable of bleeding, of course) . While the victim suffers from Unstoppable Bleeding, the blood leaving the victim flows from the wound to the teeth of the sword in a continuous sheet through air and water. This flow of blood will not pass through any physical barriers. Furthermore, the blood follows the sword's path as it is swung by its wielder, remaining in place as if frozen in time and possibly obscuring vision. When each victim suffering from a bleed effect caused by this sword dies, its blood catches up to the sword and it sends an arcane heal into the hands of its wielder using the extra bonus power points that come with the death.
In addition, every time the weapon causes bleeding, it drains the target of PPE equivalent to the Drain Power Points power. This ability must be charged before every battle by expending 2 PPE or ISP. Every successful power point drain powers the weapon for subsequent attacks.
Significance
Due to the obscuring trace effect of the suspended blood in the sword's path, wielders of this sword have been called "Blood Dancers." Talented Blood Dancers can use the obscuring effect of the suspended sheets of blood to great effect, deliberately forming blind areas around themselves or their enemies.
While the below video from the Blade and Soul anime shows a hand fan, the depiction of the traced paths is akin to that of the Blood Biter swords:
