Who is witchblade

The Witchblade is the offspring of the universe's primal forces, the Angelus and the Darkness. To avert mutual destruction, a truce was struck. The Angelus and the Darkness consummated and in so doing conceived the Witchblade, creating peace and balance between them. The Witchblade was discovered in modern times in Greece by Kenneth Irons , but before he found it, it had many wielders.

When not in use, it can look like an ornate, jewel encrusted, right-handed gauntlet. When wielded by an unworthy user, that person will lose their arm.

It forms a symbiotic relationship with the host, who can hear the Witchblade. When used, it expands across the body of the wielder, often shredding clothes and covering the body like armour.

The amount and coverage of the armour depends on the level of the threat. NYPD Det. Sara Pezzini has a supernatural weapon and abilities to help her fight evil.

Sara adventured with the Witchblade for many years. When she eventually became pregnant she decided she needed to give the Witchblade away, choosing ballet dancer Danielle Baptiste to become the Witchblade's new host. Sara would then have died giving birth, but the Witchblade's bond with her was strong and it decided to keep her alive by sending half of itself back to her. Sara became the wielder of one half of the Witchblade, with Danielle Baptiste wielding the other half.

But the Witchblade does not like to be separated, leading to inevitable conflict between the two women. Kenneth Irons was obsessed with the Witchblade from the very first moments.

He was the one who dug it up and took to New York. He tried to use it himself and it cost him his hand. He also told Dannette Boucher to try the Witchblade, but it rejected her too, but left behind a piece of it. He then searched a way to control the blade, marking himself with mystical symbols. When Sara Pezzini got the Witchblade, Kenneth managed to wield the Witchblade on for a brief moment before Sara took full control again.

In order to save the life of current host Sara Pezzini, the Witchblade chose famed British adventurer Lara Croft as a short-term wielder. When Sara decided to use the Witchblade to destroy a deadly machine built by the villainous Weave , the backlash caused an energy buildup within the Witchblade, incapacitating Sara.

The Witchblade then turned to Lara Croft to complete the task. Lara succeeded in destroying the machine with the Witchblade but was killed by the resulting energy discharge. Lara was later brought back to life by Nehebkau, guardian of the underworld. When Sara Pezzini was suffering temporary amnesia, and was married to Wolverine , Kaylie had somehow got possession of the Witchblade. But she wasn't in control. Sara Pezzini ordered the Witchblade back to her, and it listened.

New York ballet dancer Danielle Baptiste met detective Sara Pezzini while shopping at an antique store, owned by the enigmatic Curator. Dani instantly recognized the Witchblade worn by Sara as the mysterious gauntlet seen in her dreams.

When Sara offered the Witchblade to Dani she impulsively decided to accept it, since Sara wanted to give it up and Dani was looking for meaning in her life. The Witchblade later gave half of its power back to Sara, upon discovering the Darkness' and Angelus' plans to use the baby to end the eternal struggle between them.

He is Kenneth Irons' son and used ancient knowledge to take control of half of Witchblade. After defeating Sara Pezzini, he tried to take her half too, but the Witchblade didn't want to leave her. Gerard then tracked down his old enemy Sir Renaud de Gaudin and killed him with the Witchblade. She was again confronted by Pezzini, who threw him off the roof.

On the ground, Danielle retrieved her part of the Balance. She became the leader of Level 42, which deals with hyper-natural research and recovery group.

It is worn on the right wrist. It becomes a body armor and weapon at the same time. The amount of armor that comes out of the Witchblade to protect the host will always depend on the level of threat.

For example, if the host is fighting a mere mortal, there will be less armor wrapped around the host. But if the host is fighting enemies at the level of demons, it will form more armor to protect its host. The Witchblade can form many different types of weapons.
