Nightblood
This datapack is a homage to Nightblood, the sword from Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere works. It seeks to replicate the effects of the blade in Minecraft in the most vanilla ways possible.
As a nod to the need for investiture. The sword is crafted with a netherite sword surrounded by 8 bottles of dragons breath like so:
The crafting recipe shows it gives you a bat spawn egg, but once in your inventory, it is replaced with the actual weapon. This is due to limitations of datapack recipes. The sword will begin slowly draining your life via the wither effect which does not begin immediately.
