Prerequisite: Must have either a blood relationship with the old owner or at the very least be members of a secret order that trains it members in such a weapon to fight evil. You can't steal it and force it to bond to you, it must be given to you on Deathbed or you inherit it in a will.

Limitations: The feat Cannot be taken again, if broken it takes at least 1d4+1 levels to find someone to repair it.

This is 1 of the rarest feats in the world only 1 member of the team can have this feat and no more than 5 beings in a continent could have such a feat. At most there exist 100 such weapons throughout the world buried in Ancient Ruins, museum, secret orders or in special families useable only by someone from that bloodline. Reason simple the weapon or shield is made from a metal unavailable for the past 600 yrs if not more or it was created either by Ancient God of Smiting like Hephaestus or in legendary Civilization like Atlantis, Lemuria, Sumeria, Ancient China, Ancient India or Ancient Egypt.

Further Limitation: Only some who normally use weapons like Physical Training, Special Training, Super Soldier, Natural Genius, Ancient Weapon Master, Character from Ninja & Super-spies or something similar.
