Apotheosis Knife

This slim +3 major striking Unholy Wounding Dagger has a curved blade akin to that of a peeling knife. Soft elf-leather strips adorn the handle. If you are a demon, it amplifies any auras you have by granting a +1 item bonus to your aura's DCs.

Burrowing Splinter 1 (Manipulate) · Frequency once per day · Requirements Your previous action was a successful Strike with the _apotheosis knife_ · Effect You twist the blade, causing a sliver of the dagger to break off inside the body of the creature you damaged with the apotheosis knife on your prior action. Just as the blade itself cuts away flesh, this splinter slices away at the target's mind. The target must attempt a DC 43 Will save. If the target is a Demon, the burrowing splinter automatically triggers the effects of their sin vulnerability, regardless of their saving throw result.
