** Skybreaker, a sword made of pure vibranium, in fact the ''first'' weapon made of vibranium. It took months of forging at the peak of a volcano by its blacksmith and his children, and began the base of Wakandan knowledge on vibranium's applications as well as its effects on organic tissue. It amplifies all energy it interacts with, making extended exposure to living tissue toxic, but these effects can be insulated with even a thin layer of material. Furthermore, in spite of said effects on living tissue, extended contact with dead tissue just makes it StrongerWithAge. In the present, the leather and wood in its handle has become stronger than steel.
