"Oh, bright eyes there. Yes, indeed. Behold!" Like a kindergartener showing off a new toy at show-and-tell he flicked his wrist and held up a golden chalice embedded with gems and just bleeding magical energy.

"The longinus gear, Sephiroth Graal!" I looked at the cup and out of curiosity decided to observe it, not expecting much.

Sephiroth Graal (Life and death) - Sacred gear; Magic accessory

Rarity: Legendary

Material composition: Origin affinity, life affinity, death affinity, pure aether (solidified), gold, sapphires, emeralds, topaz, diamonds.

Balance breaker: Lifebringer: Allows the creation of a soul to the user's specifications. May permanently cripple the user if they are not strong enough for said specifications.

Bringer of change: Change another soul drastically, creating needed energy or material spontaneously at the cost of the user. May remove, alter, or create sacred gears, change races, alter magical affinities, or commence other alterations. May not affect any user of Sephiroth Graal.

Special traits: Specific magical affinity foci (Life)(Death) (x125(x5 due to foci skill)), Allows easy modification of souls connected to it through the will of its wielder, minor connection to soul fragment of God (Christian), ability to freely distribute power to connected souls, ability to absorb ambient aura to revive scattered souls.

Bio: Two parts of the original cup of Jesus Christ, son of God (Christian), gifted to the son at his request. Previously used to reveal to the twelve apostles a fragment of God (Christian) and to modify their souls to protect them from harm.

After the death and ascension of the first wielder the grail was used as the basis of a sacred gear, being the seventh one created and the second to be made from the soul of its creator. The fragment is currently dormant but can be awakened given enough purity affinity and aura.

It has been recently ripped from the soul of Valerie Tepes sloppily and attached to the soul of Rizevim Livan Lucifer. Due to an incorrectly done process and the resistance of the former wielder the grail was broken into its three aspects: life, death, and modification, and is thus not as powerful as it would normally be, putting more strain on it's wielder than would otherwise be required.

"You stole that, huh?" I asked, hiding my greed. I REALLY wanted that sacred gear. The ability to freely distribute my power to my followers wasn't too useful right now, but I could see situations where I could use it. Resurrecting the dead was something I could also do in theory but had never actually tried. If the grail could streamline the process I could learn a lot from studying it. Not to mention the capability to modify souls.

If I could modify souls could I edit the binding keeping me from Remnant?

"Of course not! It was actually given to me!" Rizevim grinned. "The ever gracious Tepes clan just up and offered me their daughter, can you believe that? My good buddy Marius hooked me up!"

"Mmhmm. Let's pretend I believe you. Anyways, that doesn't really change much. I don't think you realized it before showing that to me but I really, really need that sacred gear. Mind handing it over?"

"Don't suppose you're up for mayhem and massacres?" He didn't seem happy and the grail faded away in his hands.

"Not at all unless it's against racist assholes."
