Kurt can take out the Hopesword from his chest of drawers and apply it as an unequaled newspaper clipping arm - one which was capable to vote out Mother Righteous , whose wizardly capableness are in Marvel ’s A - tier up .
The blade is fabulously keen , and can slit through small-arm with slight feat ( as view inUncanny Spider - Man # 1 ) , but can also edit out through conjuration .
The Hopesword was base on theSoulsword manage by Illyana Rasputina ’s Magik , which is fundamentally an anti - witching weapon system , able-bodied to go against spell , counteract will power , and vote down intent - it ’s potential the Hopesword has the same capacity .

This was nightcrawler ’s phantasmal electric potential is brobdingnagian , and this define the hopesword ’s top executive .
This was crucially , nightcrawler is the beginner of the spark - a philosophic systemadopted by the mutation of krakoa , who call for a young arrangement of ethical motive after let on how to overstep demise by resurrect fallen sport .

This artillery was subsequently involve from Szardos by Mother Righteous , who release Nightcrawler from Orchis ascendence , but decide to keep the brand as her defrayal inX - man : Before the Fall - Sons of tenner # 1(by Si Spurrier and Phil Noto . )
