Blackblade
The Blackblade was a mystical weapon created on Dominaria by the blacksmith Dakkon after the planeswalker Geyadrone Dihada promised him the power of a god.[1]
History
Creation
After each heating of the weapon during its creation, Dakkon plunged it into a powerful slave to steal his or her life-force.
Geyadrone's plot
When Geyadrone received the Blackblade, she treacherously took Dakkon’s soul with the sword. It was later used by Sol'Kanar the Swamp King until Dakkon took it back. When Dihada summoned the Elder Dragons Piru and Chromium Rhuell to attack Dakkon, he stabbed Piru with the Blackblade, killing her. This released a massive energy blast that created the Dueling Chasm of Golthonor. It also allowed Dihada to absorb the power of Piru's soul, which had been her plan all along.
Reforged
It is unknown what happened later, but the sword was reforged and came into the possession of Korlash, possibly a descendant of Dakkon. At another moment in time the Blackblade would come into the possession of the Cabal minion Needle, and it's origins were rewritten by the Cabal to having been forged by the Cabal's new leader, Belzenlok.[2]
