Pitted Relic

Weapon (any melee weapon), Rare (requires attunement)

This weapon was pulled from the damp earth of forgotten battlefields, where the metal has spent decades absorbing the essence of the fallen. This blade is covered in a living rust that feels more like a parasitic organism than a piece of steel. Wounds it leaves fester stubbornly, refusing to close and carrying infection deeper into the body.

This weapon is the perfect companion for the Rust Knight subclass I shared earlier this week, a cruel tool for any martial character who wants to make sure their enemies stay down by cutting off their ability to recover during the heat of combat.
