Demon Crusher


Made by Xantor Stromgate, a dwarven weaponsmith, at the pinnacle of his craft around 35 AR. He was inspired to forge this warhammer after fate had him wondering the Endless Wastes of the 363rd Layer of the Abyss. A tiefling (or so ol' Xanny thought) who introduced himself simply as Red, was his savior and guided him to the Balor Maw Lake where he was able to escape the horrors that run rampant in the never-ending chaos of the Abyss.

Made from Adamantine that came from the Abyss itself and Red's blood, purified with Mythril and Silver. Paush, the Demon Lord of the Abyss seeks this weapon to destroy it. As he fears it could destroy his very essence, pulverising him into Limbo at best. And non-existence at the worst.

Though Demon Crusher is most effective whenst applied to its name, it is a formidable weapon against any who would be so foolish to take on its weilder ... And, until his last patrol along the Dark Spires Mountain Range, this was Xantor's favored weapon.

It is said he was pushed off the edge of the mountains by a great white bear that inhabit the Dark Spires. But, his body was never found ... Nor his prized sidearm ...

The Green Dragon

Another of Xantor's creations, this halberd was made with Silver and Steel molded with the scales of a slain Green Dragon that are known to inhabit the Arelith Forest in which the grand city of Myon lies.

A constant yellow-green cloud surrounds the head of the halberd. When it finds its mark, it can poison the victim, infect it with debilitating diseases. cause blindness and deafness as well as carrying a nasty sting.

Sword of One Thousand Souls

Yet another of Xantor's weapons, this katana was used to trap the souls of powerful demons, devils and other evils so they could not be reborn and plague the Prime Material Plane again. It was said to harness the power of pure crystal and pearl which were inlaid from the hilt thorugh the handguard and the blade itself.

Over time the blade became stained with the blood of those it had slain. And began to glow a deep, dark red. The blade, though made of simple bronze, turned as black as onyx. Just holding the blade would bring a shock. Not only did the edge never dull, it became sharper and would drain the very soul from its victim ...

So vile did the blade become that the King of Myon at the time, Trintiren Elraiendel, ordered the blade sealed within the vaults of Myon itself. It is rumored to rest there still ...

Xan and Jan

Xantor made these twin short swords for his life-long travelling companion: A human girl blessed by the gods with eternal youth named Celerity.

Though blessed with eternal youth, she was not ageless or immortal. She eventually passed from the Prime Material Plane to her next journey ... Surely the two walk together in the next life ...

Strong and as steady as their creator. As inseparable as Xantor and Celerity. Legend says that if you are to find one blade, its twin will find you ...
