Item Type: One of a kind weapon owned by Stefan Soan
Used For: Sword with a physical-based ability.
Item Description: Souba is a rather interesting weapon as though it can be considered to be a katana, it takes a rather peculiar shape. This sword is what is known as a 'double katana', meaning it has two regular katana blades attached to the hilt instead of the normal single blade katana have. Each blade is forty four inches long, or three foot eight inches, and the hilt is a single foot in length, bringing the grand total weapon length to four feet and eight inches long. The hilt itself is has standard blue wrappings with gold-colored metal underneath, while the tsuba is gold and appears to have miniature 'handles' on either side with two short gold strings hanging off. The sheath appears to be two normal katana sheaths with a connecting plate last the area where it connects to the weapon's tsuba, and is all blue. As this sword was crafted by Stefan Soan himself, it is extraordinarily durable, powerful, and has a frightening level of cutting powers to match weapons such as Joe Sharp, making it a very powerful weapon from just it's basic physical attributes, especially considering Stefan uses only the very best materials and his own spiritual energy/particles to forge his weapons. However, it's ability is what really makes it dangerous in Stefan's hands. Souba works using a 'special' kinetic energy that cannot be manipulated, limited, or controlled in any way by people other than Stefan himself. Essentially, the base kinetic energy level produced from Stefan when swinging this weapon stays is sent through only the left blade of Souba. Before this weapon makes contact with an object, or the swing is finished, the kinetic energy from the left blade is 'copied' by the right blade, essentially making each swing with this weapon twice as strong as any normal swing, however that's not where the ability ends. After the initial swing, the kinetic energy from the right blade is 'copied' and added to that of the left blade, thus making the second swing three times stronger than a standard swing. This switches again, making the third swing five times stronger, the fourth swing eight times stronger, and then the fifth swing thirteen times stronger than a single regular sword swing from the wielder. However, because Stefan knew anything higher than this could potentially destroy Souba's blades, this counter resets after the fifth swing, reverting it back to the strength of the initial swing. The primary downside is because the sword cannot 'create' kinetic energy, which is essentially impossible as it would defy the basic universal laws, the extra kinetic energy is actually spiritual energy from the wielder simply converted into the special 'kinetic' energy Souba uses. However, this isn't as bad as it seems because it isn't a direct conversion: only a third of the energy required to swing once is required to produce the amount of kinetic energy within a single swing, thus preventing quick exhaustion in the user.
Obtained From: Stefan forged this weapon himself within the Monsuta base in Australia.
