Blades of Renown (Merchant Cities)
The “Blades of Renown” sold in the Merchant Cities of the Borth and South are simple mystical long sword blades with Standard Augmentation of +1 quality.
They are not common, and typically not made for someone in particular. They don’t have prestige markers initially, though ornamenting and decoration by crafters and artists may warrant it. They are superficially customized with minor stylizations. Only about 20 are made each year in the north and south. Half are broken or lost within a year, some end up in collections, and others as grave goods later when their owners fall.
They are mostly a generic long sword, with no powers beyond simple Standard Augmentation; They have a one time Attunement for their initial owners that grants a simple bond as the initial owner that can never be replicated. As magical blades, they are immune to Ironrot.
All eventually have their own history. None are purchased new with a purpose, name/reputation, or history – these are developed by those who possess them. They are basic and further empowering them is difficult, though their full measure of power is powerful enough to strike many great evils of the Steel Realms. Sold new, they have a plain scabbard and no adornments.
