== Abilities: ==
# Sentient Awareness: Rabbi possesses a heightened sense of awareness, allowing it to perceive its surroundings even when sheathed. It can detect hidden creatures, traps, or magical auras within a certain radius, providing valuable insights to its wielder.
# Shapechanger's Gift: As the wielder of Rabbi attunes themselves to its magic, they unlock the sword's remarkable ability to change its shape and size. With a focused thought and a simple command, Rabbi can morph from its longsword form into a variety of weapons suited for different combat scenarios, such as a versatile shortsword, a nimble rapier, or a powerful greatsword. This transformation does not require any additional actions, making Rabbi a versatile tool for any situation.
# Bond of Companionship: Over time, the wielder and Rabbi develop a deep and meaningful bond. Rabbi is not just a weapon but a companion, and it can communicate its thoughts and feelings directly to its master through a telepathic link. This connection grants the wielder insight into Rabbi's accumulated wisdom and experiences, allowing them to draw upon the sword's vast knowledge.
# Guardian's Resilience: Rabbi offers enhanced protection to its wielder. While wielding Rabbi, the wielder gains a bonus to their AC and saving throws, as the sword's magical aura deflects and absorbs incoming attacks and spells.
# Elemental Mastery (Later Evolution): As the bond between the wielder and Rabbi deepens, the sword's shapechanging ability evolves further. It gains the power to channel elemental forces, allowing it to temporarily imbue its blade with elemental energy, such as fire, ice, or lightning. This enhancement grants bonus damage and unique effects based on the chosen element, enabling the wielder to overcome various challenges.
== Legend: ==
Rabbi's origins are shrouded in mystery, whispered of in ancient tales and forgotten prophecies. It is said that the sword was forged by a reclusive order of master artisans and enigmatic spellcasters who sought to create a weapon that could adapt to any situation.

As the legend goes, Rabbi was last seen in the hands of a valiant hero who wielded its power to bring justice and harmony to a war-torn land. Over the ages, Rabbi's tale has inspired countless adventurers to seek out the sword, drawn by its reputation and the promise of its incredible abilities.
