[/sup][/center][/cell][cell]Eclipse, forged by the legendary Hatanaka Family during Japan's darkest hour, was crafted from black steel infused with Orange-Lux, folded over a thousand times in a desperate bid to combat the Stygian Snake's reign of terror. However, in a fateful encounter with the Apparition, Eclipse absorbed the serpent's evil essence, becoming cursed. Lost to time, its last known whereabouts remain obscured by history. This legendary sword's unparalleled sharpness effortlessly slices through nearly any mundane or enchanted substance, ignoring physical and magical defenses. Its durability is equally remarkable, rendering it near-impervious to most damage—supernatural or mundane. 

Beyond its cutting edge and resilience, Eclipse bestows the extraordinary ability to manipulate darkness upon its wielder. The sword allows the wielder to solidify shadows into tangible constructs, versatile in form—ranging from defensive barriers that deflect attacks to offensive weapons that strike with lethal precision.

However, the sword's power comes with a dangerous caveat. Prolonged or excessive use of Eclipse triggers a malevolent transformation known as the Anti-Form. In this state, the wielder's attire and skin darken into inky blackness, their eyes glowing crimson and emitting wispy darkness with every movement. In the Anti-Form, physical attributes such as strength, durability, speed, and regeneration become superhuman, unleashing unparalleled combat prowess. Yet, this heightened state also unleashes a berserk frenzy driven by primal aggression and an insatiable thirst for destruction. Removing the sword from the wielder's grasp is the only means to revert to normalcy.

Crafted as a testament to the Hatanaka Family's mastery of magical weaponry, Eclipse marked a pivotal moment in their legacy. Once celebrated as heroes and protectors, the Hatanakas gradually receded into obscurity, their magical heritage eclipsed by pursuits of wealth and influence.[color=2e2c2c].........................................................[/color][/cell][/row][/table]
