Ripper Amulet

The Ripper Amulet, less commonly known as the Lacero Amulet, is an ancient golden Amulet given to the Humans by Demon-kind, as a type of false surrender gift. The Amulet grants it's wearer many abilities, which allow a human to combat a Demon on even ground. However the more the Amulet is used, the worse the Amulet's side affects get, insanity, to the point of psychotic breaks causing the wearer to slaughter their own platoon, this and not the Amulets most famous wearer, are to blame for its title.

Abilities Granted
The Amulet grants it's wearer Longevity, enabling a regular human lifespan of a maximum of 100 years, to be extended to a maximum noted age of 400 years. Other abilities it grants are strength, speed, agility equal to that of some of the more powerful demons in the demon legions. These powers also remain consistent throughout the entire lifespan of the wearer.

It is unclear whether the Amulet grants the wearer some kind of extra skill with small blades, or if the human mind automatically thinks to use a small blade to kill with, but every person known to have used the Ripper Amulet seems to have a penchant for small knives and razors.

Side Affects
The side affects of the Amulet include, psychotic breaks resulting in excessive murder, also paranoia is a common side affect, which also results in violent and psychotic outbursts. These breaks only come about after the Amulet has been worn for a prolonged period, a gradual affect that comes on unexpectedly.

Effectively the Amulet makes the wearer more powerful than the rest of their platoon, and will eventually cause them to slaughter them all. The side affects can be counteracted by wearing the Amulet intermittently, however in doing this, the wearer does not maintain the perks of the Amulet, also the negative side affects begin to take less exposure to take affect.
