Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi

Divine Blade of Susano'o

草薙の剣

  A legendary blade forged by divine Susano'o himself from the blood of the immortal dragon, Yamato-no-Orochi. Kusanagi no Tsurugi was wielded by the god of storms for a time, but he eventually lost it in a bet to Amaterasu, who bestowed it upon her own children. In this way, the blade has become a piece of the Imperial Regalia of Japan, handed from Emperor to Emperor until its whereabouts were lost centuries ago.

Special Qualities: Quality, Severing Divinity
  Quality: Kusanagi no Tsurugi is considered a +25 quality longsword. Attributes in parentheses ( ) indicate the weapon's value with quality factored in.   Severing Divinity: Kusanagi no Tsurugi was forged from the molten blood of the legendary beast, Yamato-no-Orochi. Its divine edge can sever any material, be it stone, metal, or the flesh of a god. All damage dealt by Kusanagi no Tsurugi completely ignores any damage barriers, damage immunity, or damage reduction the target creature or object may possess. In addition, on a successful Breakage attempt against a weapon of high Quality, the targeted weapon breaks entirely, rather than being reduced by 5 points of Quality.
