C’tan Phase Sword
Like most c’tan weapons, the phase sword utilises a form of technology not understood by any among the Adeptus Mechanicus. It is the best they can do to modify these weapons to make them useable by human hands. The blade of a phase sword apparently flickers in and out of reality, allowing it to cleave through armour and flesh with ease. Oddly, when the phase sword is outside of our own reality, it does not appear to enter the warp, suggesting either some other plane of existence or a bizarre form of teleportation technology.
Xenotechnology: Phase swords require the Xenotechnology – C’tan ability.
Phase: Phase swords ignore all armour, including force fields, psychic defences and Daemonic auras.
