Nullfire Blade
Nullfire Blade
Forged on a plane of Hell devoid of matter or energy, the Nullfire Blade seeks always to destroy magic around it, whether by burning it out of a foe or stripping him of enchantments. In addition, the vortex of emptiness it projects around itself bestows both speed and insight to one who wields it.
