Wail of the Revenant King may be wielded as either a two-handed Scythe or split in the center shaft to form two sickles. As an action, you may change how you wield the weapon by assembling or deassembling Wail. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with Wail in either form.

Sentience

Wail of the Revenant King is a sentient weapon of lawful neutral alignment, with an Intelligence of 16, a Wisdom of 16, and a Charisma of 14. It has hearing and darkvision out to a range of 60 feet. The weapon communicates telepathically with its wielder and can speak, read and understand Olo'thi (Ancient Elvish).   Wail is inhabited by the spirit of Thyril, the Olothine Elf King. Outside of a brutally honest personality and desire to be freed from the weapon, the Dungeon Master should mold Thyril's personality to fit the campaign. If the character who claims Wail chooses to release Thyril's spirit, Wail of the Revenant King is no longer sentient upon his soul's departure. If Thyril's spirit has left Wail and the character dies while attuned, their soul becomes trapped inside Wail.
