Sword.png

The modern swords of the Uther period is well made steel. They are sharp if well maintained and rather light and quick to swing. Although expensive, the swords are strong and almost impossible to destroy in combat.

Abilities:

The sword has two distinct advantages over all other weapons:

  1. Swords do not break when their wielder fumbles, but are instead dropped and can be recovered.
  2. If a tie occurs in any opposed resolution against a different weapon, a sword always breaks a non-sword. This includes a situation where both combatants critically succeeds, regardless of the actual final score.
  3. Combatants successfully defending themselves with a shield (I.e receiving the armour protection granted by it) against a critical success automatically loses one durability on that shield.
