This weapon falls into the 'Long Blades' category. It is a one handed weapon.
Eudemon blades are a blessed weapon, slightly stronger than the demon blade it was formed from. Like the sacred scourge and trishula, it always has the holy wrath brand.
You can create a eudemon blade through the Shining One's 6* ability, or find them on angels and daevas. You can turn a eudemon blade back into a demon blade by using Kikubaaqudgha's or Lugonu's final ability to replace its brand with pain or distortion, though this is rarely a good trade.
