Famed Magical Swords of the Isle of Delrith FAMED MAGICAL SWORDS OF THE ISLE OF DELRITH [Player’s note: These swords range significantly in power. The first are the most famous swords of the isle, the last are famous only in the south, some only in the west of Grozney.] LEGENDARY MAGICAL SWORDS LONGSWORDS Unless otherwise noted, all longswords are between 39 and 41 inches long and have a blade 33 to 35 inches long. Joyuese: The sword of king Delrith. A silver bladed longsword of fine quality, rumored to be a great bane to evil creatures and the goblin races. The sword has a diamond set in the hilt and a platinum falcon head on each quillón. Grus: An ancient sword belonging to the old high king of the isle before the coming of the Companions. A wide longsword with upturned quillóns, the pommel is a lion’s head, the hilt is made of bronze and the blade is black as death. Legend says the lion’s eyes are made of fire. This sword is often copied. Heaven’s Will: The sword used by the paladin Dunstan when he helped drive out the demon hordes of Demigorgon almost 600 years ago. The sword has a 7-sided pommel, and qullóns ending in a platinum dragon’s head, each eye deep set with an emerald. The blade shines as silver and places a silvery light throughout the surrounding area. Fragarach: Another famous sword of a former high king, this sword passes through armour and shields as if they were not there, allows the wielder to control the wind, and forces those to whom it is raised to speak the truth. It is a simple weapon with a well-formed bronze hilt and a sapphire pommel. Durendal: A visually stunning sword with a mithral blade and a hilt of crystal, Durandal is said to strike at the unliving and even the incorporeal as if they were solid and allows the user to chase them even to the planes of ether. Tizona: This sword is forged of red steel with a copper hilt and a fiery aura of power. It frightens unworthy opponents from the field and emboldens the wielder’s allies. Hrunting: This sword is black without adornment. Its quillóns are short, and its hilt is wrapped in black leather. It is said that there is no creature that Hrunting will not harm, be it demon or angel, dragon or god. SHORT SWORDS The Three Deaths: Angau Coch (Red Death) – This sword is made of a red copper alloy enchanted to be as hard as steel. Agheu Glas (Grey Death) – The blade of this sword is matte grey, its hilt is steel, and in its pommel is set a smoky crystal. Crocea Mors (Yellow Death) – This sword is stunning to behold with a shiny brass blade and a golden hilt. Little Death: This shortsword was carried by the famed gnomish assassin, Hedgel the Hand. It has a thin grey blade with a simple steel hilt wrapped in grey leather. LESSER LEGENDARY SWORDS LONGSWORDS Caudimordax: This was the sword of Caladril, a servant of Dorg the Dragonsbane, who came to the Isle with Delrith to help exterminate the evil dragons. It is said he was killed in an ambush, though his body (as well as his armour and weapons) have never been found. This sword is forged from the steel of a fallen star. Its hilt is made from the scrimshawed femur of a red dragon. It is said that the heat still radiates from the sword. It cannot be sheathed when any non-good dragon (or dragon with hostile intent to the wielder, his friends, or any humans, regardless of alignment) is within 5 miles. Skofnung: This black bladed sword is forged from metal from the heart of the Earth. Its silver pommel is adorned with holy symbols. It is said that its wounds can only be healed on holy ground or by those who touch the holy stone which shares its name. Vladislav (“Rules in Glory”): The great paladin Ellard used this sword in more battles than can be remembered. It is said to have protected him from evil and smited his enemies with great effect. Like all of Ellard’s weapons, it is unadorned, a simple crossguard made of blackened steel and a grey hilt and steel pommel serve to set off the splendid glimmer of its blade. Borislava (“Battle Glory”): A sword with a very small crossguard and a wide thin blade, the blade itself is without decoration, and the hilt is a flat burnished bronze with a single onyx set in the pommel. This sword was used by the knight Jonnanes Braken at the battle of Sunden Hill. Though he fell against the oncoming goblinoid hordes, he killed so many that the enemy army was broken. GREATSWORDS Serilda (“Armoured Battle Maiden”): This greatsword has a large ricasso for half-swording techniques, and no fuller. Its hilt is made from the shell of a dragon turtle and its quillóns and pommel all have turtle motifs. The sword is said to move about in defense of its wielder. Skytor Ovininn (“Fire’s Foe”): The first of the frost brands was said to have been carved from an ancient white dragon’s thigh bone. It is likely that the latter incarnations are but pale imitations of that mighty blade. Sword of Mo’og: Mo’og’s blade has become somewhat legendary, perhaps as much because it is wielded by a noble ogre as anything else. It is fully 60 inches long with a diamond shaped blade (no fuller). Its hilt ends in a dragon’s head. Rumor has it that those within its presence are protected from fear. It is known for a fact that this is a flaming sword. Desafiador: The ancestral Sword of the Brajdics. This greatsword is wide bladed with a long fuller of grey steel. The hilt and quillóns are of burnished bronze with an emerald set in the pommel. SWORDS OF RENOWN (THOSE SWORDS RUMORED TO HAVE SPECIAL DAMAGING ABILITIES) Stribog: This sword’s hilt is made of white gold and platinum, and its pommel is set with a single large diamond. The sword’s value as jewelry alone is supposed to be substantial. It is said that she brings her enemies to a cold death. Alonza (“Eager for War”): This sword was used to defend the city of Bradenburg during the Vari’shan invasion. Its wielder was the captain of the city watch, a commoner named Matija. When the town walls were breached, he stood in the breach and held them back while a barricade was built behind him. While his body and armour were recovered, his sword and shield were not. The sword was reputed to be set with a fire opal in its pommel and to have a copper hilt and quillóns ending in flames. Dur Ruth (“Dark Anger”): A weapon of Grey Elvish make, this sword is thinner than many longswords. It is ideal for thrusting as well as slashing. Its name is engraved upon its blade on each side, and its pommel is set with a yellow topaz which seems to sparkle in any light. This sword was carried in the Great War by the great grey elf knight Erin Dur. The sharp smell of a lightning strike (ozone) is said to follow this blade. Clotilda: This sword has a silvered hilt and straight quillóns, each with 4 sides. The blade is long, more than 36 inches after the hilt. This sword was forged by the dwarven smith Ral Silverbeard for his friend the Viktor, Warden of the Duchy of Tamosia to better protect himself from the poachers and monsters of the land. SWORDS OF POWER NOT KNOWN TO HAVE ADDITIONAL ABILITIES Alyoius: This sword belonged to the Helard family. It was a well-made weapon with a fluted steel pommel and long straight steel quillóns. The hilt was wrapped in leather on top of wood. The blade has a fuller which runs three quarters of the blade’s length. Alonso (“Eager for War”): This sword has a flat blade with 3 fullers. Its quillóns are short and thick. The bronze hilt is covered in a soft green leather. It once belonged to the Lambert family before that line was extinguished. SWORDS OF LOCAL RENOWN LONGSWORDS Helgarecompensa (“I Sanctify Justice”): This sword is fully 41 inches long with a black iron hilt in the shape of a scale (with the quillóns as the arms of the scale). The blade itself is forged with its name engraved on the fullerless blade. "Helga" currently resides with the courageous and humble Sir Briggette Bellyn von Zurwald, and together they deal swift justice to evil-doers in the name of St. Cuthbert. Mechanics: +1 longsword, when wielded by a person representing justice it does +2 to damage (untyped— this plus does not apply to attack rolls), flares with a blue light with the strength of a torch. This light cannot be suppressed as this sword was intended to bring the light of justice to the world. Tharuil (“Noble Vigilance”): This sword is short for a longsword, barely 36 inches long, with a matte gray blade and a dull bronze hilt, with a large tiger eye in the pommel. It was lost at the battle of Thorbin by the knight Tyreece Lepescu who held off the advancing foot of the enemy while the smallfolk of his lord Count Zurwald entered the Castle. It is said this sword increased the vigilance of its wielder. Adelard (“Brave Noble”): This sword is 39 inches long with a single fuller down ¾ of the blade.

  • Song of El Cid
    Eleventh Century Spain was fragmented into kingdoms and other domains on both the Christian and Muslim sides. These realms were continually at war among themselves. El Cid was a soldier- adventurer of this time whose legend endured through the centuries and became a symbol of the Christian Reconquest. This is his story as told by himself in the guise of a medieval troubadour – but with some present-day anachronisms creeping in. Song of El Cid I’m Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar; Prince Sancho was the one I served, my fame has spread to lands afar. my qualities were well observed, that’s why you’re sitting here with me so when he became the king in turn to listen to my soliloquy.

El Cid, the lord or leader who As his royal standard bearer, I is invincible in warfare too. was one on whom he could rely to wage the battles against his kin, To Christians I’m El Campeador, which it was paramount to win. now what that means you can be sure.

  • La Tizona En Palacio
    MILIIARIA, Revista de Cultura Militar ISSN: 0214-5765 2000. 14.157-167 La Tizona en Palacio Juan Antonio MARRERO CABRERA «Larga, pesada y fatal», casi como esta manía de los sucesivos gobiernos de llevarse de Madrid el Museo del Ejército, era la espada del gran emperador Carlomagno. La célebre Joyosa que con tanta belleza describe la primera can- ción de gesta francesa, El Cantar de Roldón: «Esta espada muda de reflejos treinta veces al día. Mucho podríamos hablar de la lanza con la que Nuestro Señor fue herido en la cruz. Carlos, por la gracia de Dios, posee su punta y la hizo engastar en la dorada empuñadura; y por este honor y por esta bondad la espada recibió el nombre de Joyosa. Los barones franceses no lo deben olvidar; por ella tienen el grito de guerra «Monjoya», y por ello ninguna gente puedeoponérsele»’. Dura, implacable, imposible de quebrantar como la voluntad oficial de qui- tarle a los madrileños uno de sus más importantes y venerados depósitos históri- cos, despojándoles de su Museo del Ejército, era la espada de Roldán. La famo- sa Durandarte que en vano trató de destruir el orgullo de la caballería andante, cuando se vio morir junto a los Doce Pares de Francia a manos de los españoles en la derrota de Roncesvalles, que tan sentidamente narra el cantar de gesta: «Roldán golpeó en una grisácea piedra y la hinde más de lo que se deciros. Cruje la espada, pero no se quiebra ni se rompe, sino que rebota hacia el cielo. Cuando el conde ve que no podrá romperla, muy dulcemente se lamenta...» «¡Ah, buena Durandarte malograda fuiste!..

  • GLADIUS (CUBIERTA).Cdr
    Gladius XXII, 2002, pp. 147-200 TWO SWORDS FROM THE FOUNDATION OF GIBRALTAR POR DAVID NICOLLE ABSTRACT - RESUMEN The two swords plus their associated acabbard and belt or baldric fragments which were found in Matin’s Cave, Gibraltar, date from the 12th century AD. Such dating is supporting the design to the objects themselves, their cultural-historical context, and their varied decoration. This evidence is also used to propose that the ensem- ble was all of Andalusian of North African origin, and as such represents an almost unique survival of 12th centu- ry western Islamic military equipment. Las dos espadas, junto con sus correspondientes vainas y restos de cinto o tahalí, halladas en Martin’s Cave (Gibraltar), deben fecharse en el siglo XII d.C. Esta datación se basa en la tipología de los objetos, en su contexto histórico-cultural, y en su variada decoración. Estos datos se emplean también para proponer que el conjunto es de origen Andalusí o Norteafricano, y que por tanto representan un caso casi único de preservación de equipo militar islámico occidental del s. XII. KEY WORDS - PALABRAS CLAVE Andalusian. Baldric. Belt-buckle. Bird motif. Bronze. Eagle motif. Enamel. Feathered decoration. Galloon. Jihad. Jinete. Maghrib. Mozarab. Mudejar. Murabitin.

W. ROLLESTON MYTHS & LEGENDS OF THE CELTIC RACE CONSTABLE - LONDON [8] British edition published by Constable and Company Limited, London First published 1911 by George G. Harrap & Co., London [9] PREFACE The Past may be forgotten, but it never dies. The elements which in the most remote times have entered into a nation's composition endure through all its history, and help to mould that history, and to stamp the character and genius of the people. The examination, therefore, of these elements, and the recognition, as far as possible, of the part they have actually contributed to the warp and weft of a nation's life, must be a matter of no small interest and importance to those who realise that the present is the child of the past, and the future of the present; who will not regard themselves, their kinsfolk, and their fellow-citizens as mere transitory phantoms, hurrying from darkness into darkness, but who know that, in them, a vast historic stream of national life is passing from its distant and mysterious origin towards a future which is largely conditioned by all the past wanderings of that human stream, but which is also, in no small degree, what they, by their courage, their patriotism, their knowledge, and their understanding, choose to make it.

  • El Cid Recupera Su Espada, La Tizona 20MINUTOS.ES / EFE
    http://www.20minutos.es/noticia/238479/0/cid/espada/tizona/ El Cid recupera su espada, la Tizona 20MINUTOS.ES / EFE. 24.05.2007 - 08:17h La Tizona, espada del Cid, en el museo del Ejército (Juan Antonio Martínez / EFE). • La ha comprado la Junta de Castilla y León a su actual dueño, el marqués de Falces. • Su precio: 1,6 millones de euros. • Será depositada junto a los restos del Cid, en la catedral de Burgos. La Junta de Castilla y León ha adquirido por 1,6 millones de euros la Tizona , la espada del Cid Campeador (1043-1099), que de forma provisional ha sido depositada en el Museo de Burgos, aunque su destino final será previsiblemente la catedral de la ciudad, donde se encuentran los restos mortales del Campeador. La espada, hasta ahora propiedad de José Ramón Suárez de Otero, marqués de Falces, se encontraba en el Museo del Ejército de Madrid hasta su reciente cierre. Su dueño la ofreció primero al ministerio de Cultura, según explicó a Efe la consejera de Cultura y Turismo de Castilla y León, Silvia Clemente. Sin embargo, el ministerio la rechazó, por lo que el marqués de Falces comunicó a la Junta su intención de venderla. La Tizona será la pieza protagonista de la exposición que comenzará el próximo septiembre en la catedral de Burgos sobre Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, con motivo de la conmemoración del octavo centenario del Cantar de Mío Cid . Una de las dos espadas del Cid Según cuenta la leyenda, el Cid Campeador recibió la Tizona de manos de sus yernos, los infantes de Carrión, justo antes de que se desposaran con sus hijas, doña Elvira y doña Sol.

  • Bugbear Distinct from Other Goblinoids, Bugbear Name Their Offspring After Any Number of Things
    INTRODUCTION For some Dungeon Masters, one of the trickiest parts of running a campaign is coming up with consistent character names, especially on the fly. Every dungeon master has been in that situation at one point or another; the players have a longer conversation with Village Guard #3 than you anticipated, get invested in them, and want to know their name. This book takes that issue and extends it to some of the less common Dungeons and Dragons races which have been released through officially published material. Why Use This Book? Name generators found online are an invaluable tool for dungeon masters, but finding the right one can be very hit and miss. This book strives to have names which are consistently themed, flavorful, and able to be pronounced at a glance. Using This Book This book has two main table types to roll on: Percentile and Double-Sixty. Percentile tables contain 100 names all ready to go. Simply roll a percentile die or a pair of d10s and go to that point in the table to get your name. Double-Sixty tables have 120 entries divided into two 6x10 blocks. Each entry is one half of the name with the top block going first and the bottom block going second. Roll a d6 to determine the column and a d10 to find the row for the first half, then repeat for the second half. Finally, combine the two halves to get your name. Thank You! To everyone who bought this book, told their friends, or shared it with someone, your support is encouraging me to make bigger and better projects! Thank you! ~J.L.

  • Magic Weapons and Armour in the Middle Ages
    1 ‘No weapon could bite him’ – Magic weapons and armour in the middle ages Magic weapons and armour are things we usually associate with the realms of myth or fantasy rather than history. And yet, in semi-historical and even historical sources throughout the medieval period we find accounts of magic weapons which bring down foes or inspire comrades, or of shields and armour which protect the wearer no matter what they faced. What is more, it is clear that there is a historical reality at play in such mythological accounts and we can see a clear development of how mundane equipment came to be considered magical. ‘I shall call thee …’ The tradition of named weapons The tradition of named weapons is well known – Siegfried’s sword Balmung (or Nothung), Thor’s hammer Mjölnir, Arthur’s Excalibur, or Attila’s ‘Sword of Mars’ (Jordanes Getica 35) and many, many others. As can be seen in these examples we can easily transition from myth to semi- historical, and into historical characters, all of whom had named weapons. Indeed, the history of named weapons dates back to antiquity and there are literally hundreds of them across all cultures where swords, and any other weapon type you care to name, were used: Scandanavian, Near Eastern, Indian, South-East Asian, Greek and Roman, Germanic and Celtic. In a similar vein, the history of named ships is an old one and one which continues today. In the medieval period we have Arthur’s ship, with the same name as his shield, Prydwen (meaning ‘fair-face’), and the Norse god Baldur’s ship Hringhorni, the greatest of all ships, and others.

  • The Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God
    The Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God The sixth piece of armor Paul mentions in Ephesians 6 is "the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." How does a Roman soldier's sword help us understand how to use the Bible to win our spiritual battles? The Bible, in Judges 7, records the story of Gideon and his 300 men: Gideon and 32,000 Israelite troops gathered near the Midianite camp, but they were severely outnumbered by their 135,000 oppressors. Gideon was ready to do battle, but God had other plans. He was about to show His people just how powerful a God He was. God told Gideon to let anyone who was afraid of the upcoming battle return home. Twenty-two thousand men took the opportunity to leave their ranks, leaving only 10,000 remaining. But God was looking for a smaller group still. God then told Gideon to have the remainder drink from the spring, and all those who lapped the water like a dog would remain, while the rest were sent home. Finally, with only 300 men, Gideon and his little army surrounded the Midianites. On signal they blew trumpets, broke the pitchers covering their torches and shouted, "The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!" (Judges 7:20). Then the unthinkable happened. These 300 men—holding not swords, but torches and trumpets—routed the entire Midianite camp. Scripture records that God "set every man's sword against his companion throughout the whole camp" (Judges 7:22). So before the Israelites even had a chance to reach for swords, God plunged the enemy camp into chaos and wild defeat.

  • Kevin Hearne - Kazıkçı Demir Druid Günlükleri 8
    Kevin Hearne - Kazıkçı Demir Druid Günlükleri 8 www.CepSitesi.Net DAHA ÖNCE NELER OLDU? Atdcus O’Sullivan, M.Ö. 83’te Siodhachan Ö Suleabhain olarak doğdu ve bir Druid olarak geçirdiği uzun yaşamının büyük bir kısmını Tuatha De Danann’ın bir üyesi olan Aenghus Og’den kaçarak geçirdi. Aenghus Og ikinci yüzyılda Atticus’un kendisinden çaldığı büyülü kılıç Fragarach’ı geri istiyordu, Atticus’un genç kalmanın sırrını çözmesi ve bir türlü ölmemesi de Aenghus Og’ü sinir ediyordu. Aenghus Og, Atticus’un Tempe, Arizona’da saklandığını öğrendi. Atdcus da bunun üzerine, kaçmak yerine kaderiyle yüzleşmeye karar verdi. Düşük profilli bir yaşam sürmeye çalışsa da üzerine bir çığ gibi düşecek olaylar zincirini te-dkledi. Takipçide kendine bir çırak buldu: Granuaile MacTiernan. Hintli bir cadı olan Laksha Kulasekaran’ın odak olarak kullandığı bir kolyeyi ele geçirdi ve soğuk demir aurasının cehennem ateşine dayanıklı olduğunu öğrendi. Morrigan, Brighid ve yerel bir kurt adam sürüsünden yardım alarak Aenghus Ög’ü yendi. Fakat tam anlamıyla hayırsever denilemeyecek ama Phoenix’i çok daha tehlikeli avcılardan koruyan bir cadılar meclisini sakat bıraktı. İkinci kitapta (Büyücü) bu sorunla mücadele etmek zorunda kaldı çünkü çok daha tehlikeli bir cadı meclisi, Uç Aura Kız Kardeşliği’nin bölgesini ele geçirmeye çalışıyordu. Bir grup Bacchant da, Scottdale’e yerleşmek için uğraşıyordu. Atticus şehri tehditlerden kurtarmak için Laksha Kulasekaran ve bir vampir olan Leif Helgarson ile bir anlaşma yaptı. Üçüncü kitap olan Çekiççîde, yaptığı anlaşmaların bedelini ödemek zorunda kaldı. Hem Laksha hem de Leif, Atticus’un Asgard’a gitmesini ve Nordik tanrılarla karşılaşmasını istiyordu. Atticus kendine sert çocuklardan bir ekip kurdu ve Asgard’a iki kez baskın yaptı.
