Lore and Explanation
A feared and extremely difficult weapon to craft, this scythe holds the very essence of the Wither. Its blade is forged from a dense, black liquid that constantly shifts and drips as if it has a will of its own. Ancient runes glow along its surface, radiating a cursed energy that deepens its bond with absolute darkness.
When wielded, every strike spreads the Wither effect not only to its target but to all creatures nearby that suffer damage at the same moment, turning the battlefield into a living plague. Yet, despite its overwhelming power, the scythe offers its wielder another advantage besides ruling the battlefield: protection from the Wither effect itself
How to Start

Command
