- Name: The Solemn Reaper
Rank: Legendary(+)
Type: Scimitar
Description: An antique, it's one of the few remaining pieces from a forgotten Kingdom. Carried with him since he was mortal, Alexander cherishes the blade despite all appearances. Bound to his soul itself, the blade is more an extension of it than anything else. An old blade, faded with time. It's handle is rough and unshaped, looking more like a series of crunched branches then a serviceable grip. The blade itself seems almost dull, clearly not maintained properly for its time. A series of worn out runes appeared down it, all almost indistinguishable from their original meaning. The blade glows with a dull green light down both the blade as well as the runes. It's scabbard is worn and basic, made out of leather with a strap to keep it worn on the back. The blade itself is around 60cm long.- Reference:
- Magical Damage; The sword has multiple ways of replacing it's damage with magical damage, granting him an offensive against people resistant to physical damage.
- Life Steal; As another way to help offset the health costs his magic can come with, Alexander can use the life stealing effects of the blade to heal himself.
- Melee Combat; Since Alexander struggles in physical combat, the weapon allows him to handle it with slight improvement.
Weaknesses:- Physical Combat; Alexander is not a physical fighter, as such the blade is more a last line of defense. He doesn't use it incredibly well because of this.
- Dull; The blade itself isn't very well maintained, and as such it lacks cutting power.
- Size; The swords length isn't spectacular, and can often be out ranged by other weapons, making it easy to keep at bay.
- Single Target; Since it's only a simple blade, Alexander can't exactly handle multiple tagets with it, placing him in a bad position against multiple targets.
Abilities:- Siphon Life; Whenever The Solemn Reaper deals physical damage to a target, it steals some of the targets life force, generating a Essence Charge for Alexander.
- Harvest the Remains; Whenever The Solemn Reaper deals physical damage to a target, Alexander is healed for 10% of C Rank damage.

- Surprise; The sudden growth in blade length can help Alexander surprise an opponent, making it difficult for an opponent to deal with it.
- Combo; Since this spell improves the length of the blade, this means that when using Phantasmal Blade, Alexander is able to get more potential range out of it.

- Physical Combat; Increasing the length of the blade may help Alexander keep some more distance, it still isn't a large increase for himself.

Fading into a dull green glow in the shape of it's former self, the blade becomes completely intangible and passes throw any solid matter on contact. When it passes through living matter, it deals C rank magical damage instead of physical.

- Blocking; Proper use of this spell allows Alexander to deal with an opponents efforts to block, passing through any barricades they make.
- Magical; This spell also allows Alexander to hit enemies who are impervious to physical damage in melee combat.
Weaknesses:- Physical Combat; For this spell to be useful, Alexander has to be in melee combat, something he doesn't fair well at.
- Cutting Power; Since this spell makes the blade go through objects, it can't be used to try and overcome the blades lack of edge.
- Blocking; While using this spell, Alexander is unable to use the blade to parry or block something, leaving him vulnerable in a duel.

- The Forgotten Shroud:
- Name: The Forgotten Shroud
Rank: Legendary(+)
Type: Cloak
Description: Once a vibrant series of bright, interwoven colors, the cloak now seems almost a mockery of itself. Faded, ripping, and seems undone, it has not faced the war against time well. Still, while it's appearance may have faded, the magic it has soaked in over it's life has grown nothing but stronger. Worn constantly by Alexander, the cloth has absorbed much of the stray magic around Alexander. It almost emanates magic now, a faint green glow visible in some areas. The cloak itself is a dull black, with a weak purple design across it. The former gold trimming is now almost beige, betraying it's old glory.- Reference:
- Defense; While the cloak doesn't offer much physical defense, it does offer a way to deal with magical damage, by refunding him some of the energy.
- Stealth; Alexander doesn't prefer to fight normally, and as such having the ability to hide from people allows him to stay safe.
- Mana Costs; Alexander is very damage on his spells to deal damage, so having a way to regenerate his magical power helps keep him active.
Weaknesses:- Physical Attacks; The cloak isn't made out of any special material, and as such it offers as much defense to physical attacks as regular cloth.
- Spells; While the additional magical power does allow him to return fire, it doesn't block the damage, meaning to properly use the passive he has to be taking damage.
- Obvious; While the cloak protects him from being magically sensed, he can still be seen and the design of the cloak doesn't let itself to subtly.
- Old; The cloak isn't exactly well maintained, and as such it's vulnerable to being destroyed on it's own. It wouldn't take much damage to destroy it.
Abilities:- Stray Magic; Whenever Alexander is assaulted by a spell, if it his the cloak, some of the magical energy is stored within it. Whenever Alexander takes spell damage while wearing the cloak, he is restored 5% magical power. This effect can only occur once every 2 posts.
- Concealment; While the cloak absorbs the magical energies around Alexander, this also conceals them from the world, sealing them inside. As such, as long as Alexander wears the cloak, his magical energy becomes completely undetectable. During this time, he is undetectable by mages trying to sense him, and he would appear as a completely normal person.

Type: A Book
Description: A book so beyond years even Alexander doesn't know it's origin, this magical tool has been with him since he began his journey. Despite all this, the book retains it's color and quality as if it was made yesterday. Found buried within an ancient library, the book contained countless pages on varying magics and techniques, filled with many different scholars works. Taking it as his own. he uses it as his personal research log, containing a copy of everything he has ever discovered inside. A dark purple, with several magical lines drawn across it. If is fairly large, 40cm long and 25cm wide. As one turns the pages, it seems almost endless, with the information inside seeming to always expand. Several different writings and notes filled it's contents, as well as some of Alexanders. The book seems to hum, a faint black aura encompassing it. The book is currently bound to Alexander, with him as it's master until he is no more. When the book is within 5m of himself, he can manipulate it at will, opening to specific pages, moving it, or even hovering it around himself with thought alone. If a page is ripped from the book, or if something is erased or covered, it will replace itself, information unable to leave it once inside.- Reference:
- Research; Useful for gaining information on people's magics, Alexander employs the book to get him information people wouldn't otherwise share.
- Messages; Since the book constantly records Alexander's thoughts, he can use it to leave messages to whoever has the book, as well as allow people to find him.
- Information Spreading; Since the pages constantly replace themselves, he can use it as a way to spread information between people by constantly ripping out pages.
Weaknesses:- Contact; For Alexander to get information on someone, he needs to get physical contact while the book is open. Meaning that if they avoid contact he can't get their information,
- Spying; If an enemy manages to get the book, they can then read every thought and action Alexander takes from that point on.
- Secrets; If someone knows about the book, they can use it to learn everything about Alexander, including his weaknesses and fears.
- Obvious; In most situations, if Alexander wants to consult the book, it's large size makes it very hard for him to do it subtly.
Abilities:- Background Check; When opened to an empty page, anytime Alexander makes physical contact with someone, the book fills itself out with their information up to that date. Complete with picture, history, magic, biology, the pages are a complete study on the person, documented down into the book for eternity. Touching someone with information already in the book updates the study, adding everything that was missing and editing any changes.
- Active Study; With the book currently bound to Alexander, until he truly dies it will record his background completely. Constantly updating, an extensive background on Alexander always documents every single event that happens to him, as well as his thoughts and situation. Even if the book is far from him, it will continue to fill itself.
