Two-Handed Swords
Cairn Blade | CAIRN |
| Named for its ability to lay warriors low, the Cairn Blade was used by the mercenary Adal Kerrn. Kerrn was a skilled heavy infantryman. He and his company, Kerrn’s Breakers, hired themselves out to all sorts of warlords, bandits, wizards, and religious leaders. They were typically placed at the front of the battlefield where they would intercept charging heavy cavalry units and break their formation. Kerrn died in 1054 DR when he accidentally killed the horse of a heavily armored foe. The horse fell on top of Kerrn, killing him. In the madness of the battle that followed, most of his comrades were routed. Though Kerrn’s body was never found, the group that had employed him at the time, the church of Helm, recovered his distinctive sword. |

Bastard Swords
Amaunator’s Legacy* | AMAUNAT |
| This shiny brass sword is extremely old, dating back at least three thousand years before Dale Reckoning. It was created by a Netherese archmage named Pouldinus as a gift to a warrior friend. This friend, Kalamnin, was a strict devotee of Amaunator, a harsh, unforgiving god now almost forgotten by sages. Amaunator was the god of law and the god of the sun. He required his servants to follow his edicts exactly. Kalamnin did his best to observe Amaunator’s laws in his travels. The blade was lost when Kalamnin was killed in battle by dozens of nycadaemons. The sorcerer who summoned the creatures, Ylmandi, kept the blade in his family until the fall of Netheril. |
