Head to your nearest graveyard and you're bound to dig up a sword in one of them eventually.
Or you'll be arrested.
I'm sorry, I thought this was America?
You need one of those swords in case you ever go into the underground empire. They glow very brightly when you're in danger from anything but a grue.
Handle looks like a snakes head, I wonder if that's deliberate?
Skyrim glass sword.
Heres a concept, imagine some corrupting evil sword gets picked up by someone who incorruptible by the sword. The trick is they are immune to the swords corruption cause they are working off of a fundamentally different internal morality.
"Hahaha!", said the sword. "I will twist your mind until you're wearing mixed fabrics, having pre-marital sex, and using the Lord's name in vain!", it cackled.
"I'll even make you skip church on the sabbath!".
what about gay sex and masturbation? Don't want to do half-job here being evil
"Hmm...", said the sword, quizzically. "The scriptures on those are a little vague in the translation the Blacksmith had".
The sword paused for a moment to think, its metal shifting subtly in a manner which could vaguely be described as coy.
"Maybe...", stuttered the sword, "you could show me what that means".
Sounds like comedy line
"Communist dies and goes to hell" joke.
If I recall correctly, bronze swords tend to be shorter than iron/steel swords. I wonder how big this one is. Need a banana for scale.
Also, it looks cool as fuck.
If I had to guess I'd say it's about a human arm's length.
1,45 m human or 2,15m human?
Yes
Good point. And it's Bavaria, so his arms may also have reached the floor when standing up.
Damn, looking at the comments here I realize sometimes I DO have more knowledge on some topics than other people. If you guys don't know that's a bronze sword, bronze is a metal that's well known due to its corruption-resistant properties. When bronze develops that green patina you see on the sword it also creates a sort of protective layer that shields the rest of the metal from oxygen and prevents it from rusting away.
Quick note meant to say corrosion not corruption lmao.
And why is the blade transparent?
Because it deals +3 astral damage
that's really cool. yeah, anything involving either chemistry, manufacturing, or blacksmithing I would safely assume I'm not the expert in the room. I bet lots of people are same
Just wanted to add to your comment here because patinas are freaking cool, in the world of bronze sculpture you can make the patina form a different color by applying different chemicals.
It can be blue, black, turquoise, or iridescent depending on the chemical mix. I'm pretty sure there's even a company that sells premixed solutions to achieve the desired results.

Damn, Khorne must be powerful then.

I suppose it won't take a bribe?
We should start encasing politicians in bronze, might help things
It would help. Not for that reason, but it would help.
Perhaps the casing could be in the shape of a bull maybe... A brazen bull we could call it
This is also why the statue of liberty is green. Also the colossus of Rhodes would've been the same color by the time of its fall, and especially by the time some MOTHERFUCKER SCRAPPED IT!
I think she’s actually made of copper, but ya simillar
I was refering to the patina effect not the metal. But yeah.
Jealousy is a fine coat.
Whispered secret #1: "Your mom and dad regret having you."
Everyone knows that already sword.
looks almost too nice for that age
Bronze lasts a long time because it barely corrodes in the right conditions compared to iron/steel which rusts the moment you look at it wrong.
Here's one that was made sometime around 700 BC and is in absolutely pristine conditions because the scabbard was so well made it was a practically air tight seal around the sword.
And then someone dropped it and cracked the blade!
tbh, a 7mm crack is the best case scenario
