Shardblade (Radiant)
Radiants of the Third Ideal or higher can wield living Shardblades — their bonded spren physically manifested in the form of a weapon. Unlike dead-spren Shardblades, a Radiant Blade can be summoned instantly and doesn't scream with agony. Glyphs and symbols glow on the blade, and it can be reshaped into any non-special melee weapon form, dealing doubled damage dice as spirit damage.
