Night reaper

night reaper is a melee item in item asylum. It is a large glowing purple sword with unconnected segments, sporting a floating black orb near the hilt and a black handle.
== Functionality ==
While night reaper is equipped, the user will gain a +6 walkspeed boost and a unique running cycle.
Using night reaper causes the user to swiftly slash the sword in front of them, creating a 8x5x8 stud hitbox. Each slash deals 16.5 damage and alternates between left and right swings consecutively. There is a minimal cooldown in between each swing.
night reaper also gives the user the power to double jump; while in the air, jumping again at any time will cause the user to jump again for a small amount of extra height, as well as dashing forwards in the direction they are facing a short distance. A small white particle effect will also form where the user initiated the double jump. The user must land on the ground before they can use the double jump again.
Double jumping has a cooldown of 1 second. In JGN, double jumping has an increased cooldown of 4.5 seconds.
== Tips ==
*This item is one of the strongest mobility items in the game due to its walkspeed boost and double jump ability. This can be used both to get into fights as well as to escape fights, and may be considered more useful than certain dedicated mobility items like the stick horse.
**The double jump can be redirected in midair. If hit off the edge of the map by items like the comically large fork, the double jump can be used to recover in certain scenarios.
*While the night reaper has high DPS, it has low damage per swing and no stunning capabilities, meaning that enemies have a good chance to be able to strike back with knockback, stun or ragdoll weapons before the user can get the kill.
*This is one of the best items for BOSS, due to its long range, high attack rate, and having some of the strongest mobility among whitelisted items.
*night reaper pairs well with cloud in a bottle as both can combine of their abilities to make the user jump thrice.
