Weapon

magical, thrown, finesse, light

This dagger is made from a rare crystal from the astral known as rift crystals. The blade is a sharpened shard from such a crystal, it has been connected with a beautiful metal handle made to focus its powers. This particular dagger is well used and has the word Kiva’r engraved in the handle.

Open Rift. As an action you can slice open a colorful shifting rift in space within 5 feet of you. When you do so choose another unoccupied space that you can see within 300 feet of you, another rift opens at that location. The rift stays open for 1 minute or until a creature willingly moves through it. Additionally, projectiles can travel parallely through the rift without closing it. Ranged attack rolls made through the rift works like normal and the space between the rifts does not impact the range the projectile can move. Additionally, attacks that hit a creature after traveling through the rift deals an additional 1d8 force damage. You can only open one rift per long or short rest.

Timestrike. When you hit a creature with the dagger you can make the attack a timestrike. When you do, the target must succeed on a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw or move 1 round forward in time. A target moved forward in time vanishes for the duration and returns to the space it left or in an unoccupied space nearest to that space if it’s occupied at the end of its next turn. This ability can be used twice per long rest.
