Empowering Defeat. When killing a creature with this weapon you gain +1 Strength; this bonus can stack to a total equal to your proficiency bonus. The effects last for 1 in-game hour after the last creature you defeat; upon which the bonus is reset to +0. This effectively allows the user to maintain this bonus so long as he/she kills another creature within an hour of the last.

Lightning Strike. The wielder can use their action to expend a charge and fire a bolt of lightning from this sword at a creature within 60 feet dealing 3d8 + your Charisma modifier lightning damage on a ranged spell attack that uses your Charisma. The sword has a maximum of 5 charges and regains 1d4 + 1 charges at dawn.

Curse of Fate. Upon suffering damage, if you current HP drops to less-than or equal to 5 HP, you are filled with the strong desire to commit seppuku. You must make a Constitution saving throw at a DC of at-least 14; failure results in a death that cannot be undone by anything short of a wish spell. Upon succeeding the Constitution saving throw, the urge is dispelled until the next time either your health is depleted to 5 HP, or you draw this sword with less-than or equal to 5 HP.

Unyielding Morals. While using Ōdachi of the Dawn Lion, if the wielder attempts to strike any whom the wielder considers family or friends the wielded must make a Wisdom saving throw at a DC of 20.
