Weapon of Novus Gibbous: Ursa Minor

Name: Ursa Minor

Type: A uniquely shaped great sword, modeled after the crescent moon.

Range: Close range only.

Description: Ursa Minor is essentially a weapon fit for quick execution. It is meant to be wielded with two hands, but an experienced user of the weapon can wield it with one, though they will be substantially slowed. It is a thirteen pound weapon distributed over a 120cm length, and a 21 cm length at the widest. The blade is single edged, curving gently up at the tip to give it a more rounded shape. Rather than have a normal guard, the blade has slightly unbalanced protrusions near the hilt, shaped like a crescent moon, meant to protect the hands, and meant to be used as stabbing points. On this crescent shaped section, there is the etching of a Waxing Crescent moon. The hilt itself is about 12 cm long, more than enough for a two handed grip, and is made of black stained steel.
The history of this weapons goes so far back as to be untraceable, but according to family stories, they were cult weapons, used by Gibbous family ancestors in rituals to hail to the moon. They were made for the cult's leaders, two leaders, skilled in combat and what they called "Lunar Influence," which is likely a name for Aura. The younger brother used his weapon to carve a bloody path for the cult, and so the older used Ursa Major to stop him. In the end, the two were evenly matched, and it is said that in a last ditch effort, the elder brother used a lunar ritual to seal their aura's in the weapons. For this reason, the weapons are treated as though sentient.
(For the record, both of the brothers from the history used their aura in combat for weapon-duplication and manipulation :3)

Abilities: Like Ursa Major, Ursa Minor has the ability to channel it's wielders Aura into an aura around the blade, which can be swung for a slash attack or shot out as a projectile.
