Bushra-Eureka Blade

The Bushra-Eureka Blade is a weapon appearing in the Rage Knights: Red God universe written by Damon Avent.

## Creation History

The blade was created solely by the Magistrates of Muck inside their former weapons base known as the Genesis Mark Kingdom No.1 in commemoration of Aphrodite-Bushra's reign as their new leader, after she had overthrown the founder and former leader, *Sax C. Jembre*. It was created to be a "trophy" of sorts for Bushra but later was wielded as a traditional sword, most notably by General D whom wielded the blade in an effort to "protect" and show off his confidence and fighting skills to Aphrodite-Bushra.

He never won over Bushra despite his numerous attempts, and would eventually return the blade into the holster that hung over Bushra's throne room. Later, the blade became an experimental object, with Aphrodite-Bushra herself asking scientists including a newly inducted Dr. Hans Grippe, to use her own blood as a tool of war, so the universe could feel her when the Magistrates appeared. Agreeing, though hesitantly, Grippe took a number of samples from Bushra and augmented the former "trophy" sword originally meant as decoration, to a weapon that could project Bushra's blood onto unsuspecting enemies. This captured the fascination of Warden Ed' O Neal, one of the human Magistrates and warden of the Heaven's Gate Penitentiary. He wielded the blade for only weeks, though feeling uneasy and overwhelmed due to the strange presence of Bushra herself watching over him both internally from the sword's blade and externally as Bushra herself seemed too disapproving of his lack of willpower. He turned it back over to her then-after.

### Powers

Other than projecting her blood, the Bushra Blade became a well-known sword of heightened attack power that when swung, could cut through steel and forests effortlessly. It even allowed for the user to limit forms of Bullying Tactics, namely stalking and accusing. Making for these particular tactics to seem useless. At times, placing the bully tactician users of these certain attacks under hypnosis or simply de-buffing their usage in combat. According to Grippe, due to Bushra's own confidence and certainty of herself, it was perhaps reason why Bullying Tactics seemly did not work well.

Later augmentations allowed for the blade to summon the likes of antagonistic, mean and unfriendly people. Something that the Magistrates of Muck deemed necessary whenever invading kingdoms, planets, shopping centers, neighborhoods etc. or even when recruiting new members. This could be activated whenever the user swung the sword.

### Eureka

The Bushra Blade was used less and less by Aphrodite-Bushra as she had retired from fighting indefinitely to continue being an active member of the Council of Gods in High Heaven Council. During this time, she was housing a struggling Damon Bradley in her care at the Aphrodite Citadel. This newer double life of Bushra's caused her to abandon wielding the blade and turned it over to one of the Inhuman Women/Magistrate women, Eureka, whom had personally known Bushra and Bradley himself himself.

Eureka learned of its history and simple construction and asked Grippe to then make additional modifications to it. Including using her own blood this time as a means of war. Grippe didn't easily agree, believing the sword's power would cease to operate properly, but he became intimidated by Eureka's posture and her height, causing him to instead construct the Bushra Blade's final augmentation. Thus creating the Bushra-Eureka Blade. A weapon that could also project both Bushra and Eureka's blood as energy projections, while simultaneously summoning the likes of superficial people and calling forth the Life-Force of Bushra and Eureka themselves, even if they were deceased or if it meant calling upon their counterparts of the Multiverse.

Eureka then used the blade several times, including during her conflicts between Aphrodite-Bushra. Though it felt great in her possession, the Magistrate declared it "pointless" and returned to relying on mostly handguns and rifles. The blade was subsequently lost in the Old Magistrate Tower but fell into possession between several low-class Magistrate soldiers that took the blade to Earth, where stray soldiers encountered Nadeja Tu Khan and Mezra Chronics. Afraid of the two young women and their strange familiarity and frightening life force, they tried to use the blade to chop them down. This resulted in the soldiers being overwhelmed by the power and summoning superficial people that proceeded to hunt for "prey". The superficial people only found Nadeja and Mezra but demanded Damon Bradley and the Rage Knights.

Mezra proclaimed their disbandment as did Nadeja whom thought they were only urban myths but this led to a denial and the superficial chased the two women. Nadeja stole the Bushra-Eureka Blade in the process, using it to fight off the group. When the two women were chased to the town of Tarsville, Nadeja came to the conclusion of simply destroying the blade to dismiss the superficial people. She then threw the blade from a high cliff and hurled the hilt into the sky.
