While bound to Orzi, you move with an unearthly speed that leaves a lingering trail behind you. You can use your Charisma modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity, for your attack and damage rolls with finesse weapons.

number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once) and regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Once the world’s greatest blademaster, Orzi lends his binders his incredible speed and peerless skill with onehanded blades.
Legend
Conflicting legends tell of how the Maimed Duelist lost his arm, but all relate to his singular, almost supernatural skill with a blade, even without his dominant sword-hand. One legend recalls a rivalry between Orzi and the demon-knight Rostam over the affections of a maiden, culminating in a duel. Orzi struck true time and again, but Rostam’s impenetrable armor repelled each blow until Rostam retaliated with a single strike, felling Orzi and severing his arm at the shoulder. Another legend recalls Orzi’s conflict with a dire purple worm, who encroached on his lands. In a great battle, the beast bit Orzi’s sword-arm, turning it black and numb within
seconds. Rather than succumb to the venom, he cut off his own arm and struck the monstrosity dead with his remaining limb.
With but one arm remaining, Orzi trained relentlessly to become stronger than before, a shieldless blademaster. He invented a new, blindingly fast fighting style to turn his opponents’ strength against them, while avoiding their deadly blows. For this style, and an
endless record of lethal duels, Orzi is remembered as history’s greatest blademaster. Likewise, his vestige is a humanoid blur wielding a lightning-quick blade.
Personality Trait
While bound to this vestige, you gain the following personality trait: “I neglect my non-dominant hand, preferring to use just one hand whenever possible."
