Haha! I finally have it. After so long, after so much trouble and turmoil. I finally have that silver blade I have been eyeing for so long. The sword is so perfect. It is so divine. It is like a sword out of the old legends I read when I was a child. The sword was so great that I decided to write this. What better way to celebrate a new blade and chapter in my life than too record my thoughts.

[Orcleous]

Name: Brilliance Before The Dawn or Luxcalabur
Magic: Light
Spell: Divine

Description: Luxcalabur is hand and a half sword, or in common terms a longsword. The blade is long enough to be used with two hands, but also short enough that it can be used one handed. The sword itself only weighs about 4lbs. The guard on the blade is designed like a upside down cross. The cross guards are made up of the wings and the short end of the cross moves back toward the grip. The long end of the cross sticks out over the blade reinforcing the grip and serving as a rain guard. The grip itself is made up of black leather and the pommel has a golden jeweled inserted into it. Etched into the filler of the blade are three words, Kill, Evil, Immediately. The words however are written in the old dragon tong so they are unreadable to most people.

Personality: Luxcalabur has a thing for the slaying of monsters. The sword gives its full power when it fights against evil. It can be used against normal humans, but the sword halves its magical power. It should be noted that the sword itself keeps track of the actions of its user. If the user uses the sword for evil the blade will not hold back its power if the sword is turned against them. If the user uses the sword only for good then the blade will hold back when it is turned against the user.

Orgins: Luxcalabur was created after the years of the scouring. The sword itself was used to hunt down and slay monsters in the age of darkness. At the time it was not considered such a powerful weapon, there where some with far more powerful, but the sword was considered to be the Paladin's weapon. This Luxcalabur was wielded by a courageous hero who fought against a beastly cyclopse. The paladin who used the sword was slain by the beast, but not before he took the final blow. In his death he was considered to be a hero and laid to rest inside of the mountain tombs in Bern.In order to prevent his tomb from being robbed by thieves the villagers walled it up after his ceremony His holy sword was placed into his tome with him and remained hidden from the world for centuries. The blade was only discovered when Orcleous and his group of mercenaries battled there way through the tombs to reach the summit. During the battle Orcleous smashed open the tomb with Xigshaw while slaying a undead. The sword was not taken by the hero, but by one of the mercenaries fleeing from the battle. Hungry for coin he sold the sword to the village merchant, who then in turn sold it to Orcleous father, who knew of the legend. Orcleous father orignally kept it as a tool to fight against any monster threat that moved against there family farm. However he eventually decided it had better use in his son's hands after hearing of his retreat from the beast.
