This mod adds the Vicious Thorn, a hag-themed poison dagger, that can transform into Spineful, a poison greatsword.

Both weapons are entirely dyable. Use dyes that support glow to change the color of the glow.

Please note there may be some issues with the dye resetting if you unequip the weapon. If that happens just dye the weapon again.

Recommended dye mods that change the glow color:

- P4 Custom Dyes by Padme4000

- Soaring Ambition by Nikijima

- Glowing Accessories and Dyes by Cerberry

⟡ Act 3   Head into the basement of The Blushing Mermaid in the Lower City and turn the Vicious Thorn dagger into the greatsword Spineful by using the cauldron you find there (see screenshots for more info).
