CROWNS AND CIRCLETS

 

I

DIE KRONE VON SUTICA

The Crown of Sutica

 

This piece is a replica of the crown worn by Georg, King of Sutica, the fragments of which were later given to Saint Prince Johann, Patron Saint of Reinmaren, Waldenian Princes, and Axemen upon his inheritance of the Sutican title. The pieces were kept for posterity but never repaired due to the Haeseni Crown Prohibition Act of 1696, prohibiting the then Ducal House of Barclay from wearing circlets, crowns, or coronets. The crown was later reforged and repaired by Josefina of Jerovitz for the coronation of Alfred I and Leon II.

 

The band of this crown has been wrought from fine Reinmaren gold, the crest of Sutica etched between large brilliant-cut teal sapphires. The blue-green gems were well preserved from the original Crown of Sutica, varying widely in size. Eagles forged from the same gold as the band have been added beneath each sapphire, hardy gilt wings outstretched to frame the gemstones with delicate feathers. Each gemstone and eagle nearly overlap, creating a jagged and near-swarmed effect as though a soar of eagles has descended upon the wearer’s head. All twenty-three sapphires have been polished to a flawless shine, and a band of emerald silk has been added to the interior of the piece to protect the wearer’s skin.

 

Beneath the silk, the Prayer for Humility; Against Pride has been inscribed, along with the maker’s mark. “O God, I am nothing before Thee. Why have I desired, why have I ever wanted, why have I searched in vain for all but Thee? O God, my God, I am but a drop in the ocean, a leaf on a tree, yet, knowing that even a drop and a leaf falling is known to Thee, reduce me in pride. Let me hate myself, and love Thee.” J.T.R.B.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

II

DIE KRONE VON MINITZ

The Crown of Minitz

 

Created for Grand Prince Ferdinand I by the late Josefina of Jerovitz, Duchess Emeritus of Reinmar, the majority of the crown has been forged from gold, and decorated with pearls, diamonds, emeralds, and a band of starsteel. The velvet for the crown’s cap was woven by the finest of Minitz’s artisans, the pearls harvested from Aaunish waters long before the Principality of Reinmar’s creation.

 

The band and arches of this crown have been forged from gold, square-cut white diamonds held securely to the polished metal with tines and prongs. Bright white pearls have been added along the top of each arch, guiding the eye toward an orb carved from an emerald. A band of starsteel set with more white diamonds wraps around the diameter of the orb before curling over the top of the emerald to create a cross. Its cap has been handsewn in fine emerald green velvet, gold crosses studded with diamonds, and Barclay eagles surrounding the fabric.

 

The crown band has been decorated with a series of larger diamond-cut white diamonds and pale blue oval-cut star sapphires. A lining of midnight blue satin wraps around the interior of the band for the comfort of the wearer, and to protect the velvet of the cap from wear. The maker’s mark has been carved into the gold just before the satin begins on the back of the band. J.T.R.B.

 

Currently held by Leon II, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Minitz.

 

III

DAS DIADEM VON MINITZ

The Diadem of Minitz

 

Created as the accompanying piece for Die Krone von Minitz by Josefina of Jerovitz, the diadem was given to Adalfriede, Princess of Minitz, after the Principality of Reinmar’s founding, though before construction of the capital city of Kretzen was completed. The diadem is one of the first pieces created from gold and gemstones mined in the Principality and one of the only ones created with such materials by Josefina of Jerovitz.

 

This delicate crown has been shaped from fine gold filigree which has been laid over the main body of the piece, drawing up into five large points with five smaller points between them. Gold pearls found in Aevos’ southern seas stud the top of each point, held to the gold with tines. Smaller champagne pearls decorate the main band of the crown in between square and emerald-cut sapphires and pear-cut emeralds. The very base of the band has been lined with yet more sapphires and emeralds, a pearl framing each sequence of gemstones. On the interior of the band, white silk has been attached to the gold to protect the wearer’s skin and hair, easily removed for washing and replacing. 

 

Underneath the silk, the Prayer of Diligence; Rousing Against Sloth has been inscribed. “God, help me focus on the work of this day, by the intercession of Saint Godwin. For, though a leper, he toiled with all his heart: even a fraction of his merit and diligence shall see me through, my duty done. And I must do my duty.”

 

A maker’s mark has been engraved beneath the prayer. J.T.R.B.

 

Currently held by Adalfriede of Hexenwald, Princess of Minitz.

 

IV

DER REIF VON REINMAR

The Circlet of Reinmar

 

Designed by Josefina of Jerovitz and gifted to Duke Manfred II Barclay upon the event of his wedding in 1928, the band of the circlet itself has been forged from gold before being decorated with diamonds, sapphires, and emeralds. Delicate engravings of the Barclay crest and motto sit between each gemstone.

 

Ten identical eagles, five carved from sapphires and five from emeralds, have been fastened to the polished gold of this circlet, all facing the same way. When worn, an emerald would rest on the forehead and a sapphire on the back of the head. Engraved between each eagle lies the crest of the Barclay von Reinmar and the words Wer Rastet, Der Rostet. Above the head of every bird sits a Lorraine cross made from square-cut white diamonds. Two bands of crushed emeralds and sapphires wrap around the top and bottom edges of the circlet encased in clear glass. A maker’s mark lies on the interior of the circlet, to the left of the wearer’s head. J.T.R.B.

 

Currently held by Manfred II, Prince Emeritus of Sutica, Duke Emeritus of Reinmar.

 

V

DER PRINZGEMAHLIN REIF VON REINMAR

The Consort Circlet of Reinmar

 

Gifted to Ravenna of Thurant by Josefina of Jerovitz alongside Der Reif von Reinmar on the event of her wedding, this circlet was carved entirely from ivory, depicting eagles and a field of roses. Crushed gemstones including rubies and emeralds had been added into the grooves of the ivory, with only full gemstones being set into the eyes of the eagle carvings.

 

Ivory carved with depictions of a soar of eagles flying over a rose field has been fashioned into a circlet, the most intricate of details only seen if one looks close enough. Frost has been etched onto the petals of the roses and along their stems, whilst clouds have been carved into the material. Crushed rubies and emeralds were added into the grooves of the roses, and crushed white diamonds to the clouds. Each eagle bears an emerald or a sapphire where its eye would’ve resided. When worn, the crest of the Barclay von Reinmar would rest on the forehead. A maker’s mark lies on the interior of the circlet, to the left of the wearer’s head. J.T.R.B.

 

Currently held by Ravenna of Thurant, Princess Emeritus of Sutica, Duchess Emeritus of Reinmar.

 

VI

ZIRKHEL DES ADLERFLUGS

Circlet of the Eagle’s Flight

 

This crown was gifted to the House of Barclay during the Loyal Exchange of Aleksandr II and Amaya of Venzia in 1969, created more so as a symbolic piece than one meant for daily wear.

 

A crown made out of evident care and great luxury, forged from the finest Karosgrad mineral, made from pure gold. As such, it is not meant for daily wear, intended to be used in greater events, symbolic of the Waldenian and Reinmaren might. The band itself is detailed with an intricate design of eight repeating panels, each hosting four smaller round-cut blue diamonds, and one giant zinnia-cut emerald: thirty-two and eight in total. Atop the band are protruding figurines of eagles with their wings splayed, hovering above each section where the emerald lay and within their torsos rest marquise-cut tanzanites. In between each of the birds was a decorative Lorraine cross, each four points holding onto a small round-cut emerald. The center eagle was poised with its wings held out more largely, three relevant gemstones decorating its core: One ruby from Haense, one garnet from Savoy, and one red diamond from Aaun - all meant to represent where the Household Barclay swore allegiance prior. As a bit of a treat, below the main eagle just above one of the larger emeralds was the two engravings of side-view stallions as an ode to the household founder, with a particularly striking black opal. One of the few gemstones left from the collection of Her Majesty, Eve of Aesterwald. The late Queen of the Westerlands. This crown was not only to be worn by any gender, but a piece made in honor of Duchess Ravenna Barclay nee Stafyr, Baroness Elia Eryka’s first-born daughter.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

 

Section Two

ASSORTED JEWELRY

 

I

FURSTINSBROK

Furstin’s Brooch

 

Created by Adelmar von Kanunsberg for Adalfriede of Hexenwald, this brooch is a part of the Princess’ daily attire, used to pin her tribesman’s cloak to her shoulders. Like with all pieces created by Adelmar von Kanunsberg, the use of Reinmaren runes and artwork is prevalent throughout the brooch.

 

The golden brooch before you, inlaid with silver thread had been handcrafted meticulously, wrought in the venerable style of Reinmaren artistic tradition. Fashioned from the fine gold extracted from old Minitz, with the surface of the brooch displaying engravings that depict scenes of a shieldmaiden atop a steed in battle, bearing her round shield proudly, raised high.

 

Each detail is painstakingly crafted, from the curling tendrils of foliage to the precise etching of runes along the edges, which read “ᚪᛞᚪᛚᚠᚱᛁᛞᛖ”- meaning “Adalfriede” in Reinmaric script. 

 

Currently held by Adalfriede of Hexenwald, Princess of Minitz.

 

II

GULDAUR ADALFRIEDISKJA

Adalfriede’s Gold

 

Designed and created by Adelmar von Kanunsberg for Adalfriede of Hexenwald, this pair of earrings is a part of the Princess of Minitz’s daily attire, continuing the theme of drawing on Reinmaren tribal art.

 

This bejeweled set of earrings, fashioned for the noble Princess Adalfriede seems to boast an air of simple humility with them. Fashioned from gleaming gold, each earring features intricate filigree work reminiscent of the Reinmaren tribal art, characterized by its geometric patterns and runic motifs. 

 

The right earpiece depicts a serpent entwined around and onto itself, a mouth, engraved so that it opens up and loops back towards the creature’s tail, depicting the serpent in the process of devouring itself.

 

Currently held by Adalfriede of Hexenwald, Princess of Minitz.

 

III

DER ADLER

The Eagle

 

A simple silver signet ring created by Josefina of Jerovitz for Manfred II Barclay upon the event of his eighteenth birthday. The ring carries the sigil of the Ducal House of Barclay while the House was in service to the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska.

 

Altogether, this little silver ring is nothing special to look at, though if one takes the time, the quality of the silver that it was forged from is second to none. The signet ring bears the crest of the Ducal House of Barclay and has obviously been forged to fit a man’s finger. Around the outside of the band, excluding where the raised crest sits, lie the words Wer Rastest, Der Rostet. On the interior of the band lies a name. Manfred II Johann Barclay is written in a neat script, and below it lies a date. The 11th of Wzuvar and Byvca, 451 Ehr Sigmunda. Perhaps it was the date the ring was forged, or indeed, the birthdate of the wearer.

 

Currently held by Manfred II, Prince Emeritus of Sutica, Duke Emeritus of Reinmar.

 

IV

JOSEFINA OF JEROVITZ’S LOCKET

Silver Wedding Locket

 

This locket was one of a pair forged by Edith of Reinmar, Queen Mother of the Apostolic Kingdom of Aaun, for the wedding of her elder brother Wilheim II and Josefina of Jerovitz in 1895. The late Duchess Emeritus wore the locket until her death in 1971.

 

A pair of small silver lockets have been made for the newlywed Barclay Duke and Duchess. Gifted to the couple on their wedding the 6th of Malin’s Welcome, 99 SA, each would bear a likeness to its pair with the Barclay crest engraved on the front and on the back, a rose for the bride and a stallion for the groom. The inside of this locket bore a miniature painting of the Duke Wilheim Barclay, for the Duchess to keep close to her heart in trial and hardship.

 

Currently under the care of the Treasury of House Barclay.

 

V

AMULET OF THE MOON

Amulet

 

A dusty, yet beautiful, monk relic. A sleek, shimmering chain of silver held along it a large charm; a moderately sized, rose-cut white diamond would be fitted into the main piece of the amulet, ringed with delicately crafted silver crescents holding the jewel in place. The surface of the gem would dazzle if it caught the light at the right angle; quite the beautiful display. A small clasp would be apparent on the side of the main amulet as if you once were able to open it up; the pendant was hinged, yet jammed. It seems that whatever lay within remained a mystery.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

VI

JOY

Wedding Ring

 

Designed by Josefina of Jerovitz for the wedding of her youngest son, Ser Konstanz Barclay, to Lady Astrid Colborn, who later tragically passed during the birth of their first and only son, Matthias. It is one of a pair, alongside the ring named Bliss which was forged to fit Lady Astrid’s hand.

 

A small oval-cut emerald with a deep green color has been set into a band of fine silver made to fit the hand of Ser Konstanz Gottfried Barclay, the precious metal smooth and unblemished apart from the engraved depiction of an eagle with a rose between its talons. A line of square-cut diamonds lines the middle of the band, just beneath the eagle depiction opposite the central gemstone. Carved into the interior of the band would be two sets of initials inside the depiction of a rose. K.G.B. and A.R.C. lie side by side on the flower’s petals. The maker’s mark is carved beneath it. J.T.R.B.

 

Currently held by Ser Konstanz Barclay.

 

VII

DIE SMARAGDROSE

The Emerald Rose

 

Designed by Josefina of Jerovitz for her youngest son, Konstanz, to gift to the then Lady Astrid Colborn during Queen Sofia of Hyspia’s Lifstala in 1928. 

 

Emeralds have been crafted into the petals of this rose, each gem shining brilliantly in the light. Held together by a delicate stem made from gold, a sapphire blue ribbon has been tied about the end of it. If one should look closely, etched into the gold would be curls of frost and different phrases from poetry about beauty, love, and fidelity. The maker’s mark lies on the underside of a leaf. J.T.R.B.

 

Currently held by Ser Konstanz Barclay.

 

VIII

COMMEMORATIVE ENTHRONEMENT BROOCH OF SIGISMUND II

Brooch

 

This brooch has been created in commemoration of the enthronement of Sigismund II of Haense. It is a small golden brooch with at its center the Haeseni coat of arms. Engraved above it in a half circle are the words “Kongzem Edaeleo ag Kusoraev” New Marian of the Dual Monarchy of the Kingdoms of Hanseti and Ruska. Beneath the coat of arms stands written “Enthronement of Sigismund II, 1762, 9th of Horen’s Calling”.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

IX

SILVER CROSS OF LORRAINE

Lorraine Cross

 

This silver cross of the Lorraine was handcrafted in Vuillermoz in the year of 1740 by Father Harald Vuiller, later known as Saint Harald. It has a fine lining of rose bushes going up the middle with a blue crystal in the middle, connecting it on each hand of the cross the names of the Holy Scrolls would be written. The back would be marked with the name of the Holy Sir it belongs to. “Nicholas Barclay” would be written on this cross.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

X

THE THREE WING’S PIN

Pin

 

Gifted to Alfred I and Leon II, Princes in Reinmar, at their coronation in 1968  by the delegation from the Principality of Celia’nor, this pin is a symbol of the friendship between the two Principalities.

 

Engraved on a silver pin is a depiction of a brave crow, wings spread to shelter its allies. Underneath the left is a lion, preparing to protect the trio with an elegant phoenix on the right. When the pin is raised and touched by the sun’s rays, it shimmers and then begins to shift. The crow’s wings beat, rising upwards as it lifts the others. The star-speckled background changes to depict the sun, signaling a bright future ahead.

 

To those familiar, a clear depiction of the friendship between Reinmar and Celia’nor.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica and Leon II, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Minitz.

 

XI

GOLDEN LORRAINE CROSS NECKLACE

Lorraine Cross

 

Created by Manfred II, this Lorraine cross is worn daily by the Prince Emeritus.

 

A relatively simple yet delicate and radiant Lorraine cross fashioned out of 18-karat gold, suspended gracefully by a slender twine of woven rope. The reverse side of the cross was marked with the names of the Holy Scrolls and Four Exalted, inscribed with utmost care and reverence, with ‘Manfred Barclay, Prinz von Sutica’ duly inscribed just a little below these inscriptions.

 

Currently held by Manfred II, Prince Emeritus of Sutica, Duke Emeritus of Reinmar.

 

XII

BARCLAY PIETY

Lorraine Cross

 

This cross is worn daily by Adalfriede of Hexenwald, the Princess of Minitz. The colors of House Barclay are clearly present in the gemstones decorating it, though it lacks the theme of Reinmaren tribal art that most of the Princess’ pieces display.

 

A large Lorraine cross wrought from gold, its face studded with sapphires and emeralds; Barclay blue and green. Often seen hanging from the neck of Adalfriede of Hexenwald, the Princess of Minitz, this symbol of faith has been worn smooth by the countless passing of a thumb over its surface. The long gold chain allows the cross to hang just below one's sternum, or it can be worn looped around the waist.

 

Currently held by Adalfriede of Hexenwald, Princess of Minitz.

 

 

Section Three

WEAPONS

I

GRAN’S BLIGHT

Spear

 

This spear was liberated from a shaman on the continent of Arcas by the Brotherhood of Saint Karl after the shaman’s defeat. The spear eventually came to the hands of Friedrich I after being retrieved by the Brotherhood, who put it to good use during his lifetime and chose to pass it down to his descendants. 

 

A unique-looking spear, the blade being around 12 inches in length, while the shaft is around 78 inches in length. The blade itself is made out of a blighted-looking material,its durability being comparable to that of an aurum weapon, however maintaining a good edge in combat. The blade is forged into a dagger-type shape with serrated edges on both sides, as to embed itself in the victim and make it hard to pull out, as well as making it easy to cut and inflict azhl anemia on a target. It also has a fuller on each side, as well making it harder to bend and relieving weight from the rather heavy and unwieldy metal, making it balance better and less top heavy. The shaft is made out of polished oak wood to make for a durable handle. As well as this, the blade is an ashy-black metal, the weapon as a whole weighing around 2.1 kilograms, making it a good spear to wield for the inexperienced and knowledgeable alike, making it highly versatile. 

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

II

BRALT’S LEFT AXE

Axe

 

This axe was one of Bralt the Boar, King of the Scyfling’s war axes, which was given to the House of Barclay by the Brotherhood of Saint Karl after Erwin I led the forces that defeated the Boar in the Battle of New Reza on Arcas.

 

The left-handed axe of Bralt the Boar, leader of the Scyfling pagans who invaded the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska on Arcas. It’s a long-handled weapon, better suited for most people to use two-handed.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

III

BRALT’S BURNT WARAXE

Axe

 

Another of the war axes of Bralt the Boar, it was also given to the House of Barclay by the Brotherhood of Saint Karl after Erwin I’s victory at New Reza.

 

Before you lose a war axe about 130 centimeters in length, with a steel head and wooden handle. The handle had been burnt to the point of fragility, but not entirely burnt; and as such the type of wood cannot be determined as of now. The war axe had clearly been through plenty of battles, judging by the dried blood on the axe head and the state of the wood. This axe had been recovered from the throne room during the Siege of Reza in 1777, during which a fire raged through the palace. Remarkably enough, the blade is still sharpened to a fine edge, despite all the damage done to it. This specific axe was one wielded by the Infamous Bralt the Board, former leader of the Scyflings; and in a way, it died with him.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

IV

KRIEGSSTAHL

War Steel

 

This sword was shown to Wilheim I by an ancient specter after it was freed from beneath Freising, having been kept in a hidden cache buried long before House Barclay’s arrival. Wilheim I had the blade refurbished and added to the Treasury of House Barclay.

 

“War Steel”, the tall, two-handed longsword, which belonged to Ser Wilheim the Stallion, founder of the Noble House of Barclay, and Lord Marshal of Haense, with tenure starting in 1724. This Waldenian blade had seen many wars, fought many battles, and slain many enemies of Hanseti-Ruska. After many years of idleness, Kriegsstahl was polished back to its original appearance and effectiveness. Blue and green dyed leather was wrapped around the handle, the colors of House Barclay.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

V

MANFRED’S MIGHT

Longsword

 

Created by the Paladin Hillith, this sword was gifted to Manfred I, enabling him to strike down darkspawn and Azdrazi during the final battles of Arcas against the Inferi.

 

A steel longsword being at a total of 130cm in length, with a blade of 110cm. It holds onto a sturdy hilt of wood bound in leather, with a concluding pommel holding tautly onto the raw funk of light stone secured into place, with an additional set of rubies on either end of the cross-guard. With stretched-out limbs the gems would be held firmly in its prison of shifted steel and iron. The activation requires a simple murmur of blessing to Can, and for the user to be gripping upon its hint, for it would passively fume with gold Xannic mists. It required to be recharged after every use and needed to bask in the sunlight undisturbed. [Holy Affinity Melee and Fatherly Embrace]

 

When activated, the blade would engulf the user with warm mists that can either soothe, give courage, pride, and/or as well as wash away fear, anger, and/or sadness. The sword allows for five rounds of the Holy Affinity ability before becoming deactivated. The ability itself infuses the length of the blade with aureate murk. Inscribed on the cross-guard would be: “Hillith”

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

VI

BONEGRIP

Sword

 

Created by Brandt Barclay in 1776, it was added to the Treasury of House Barclay for use by future generations.

 

Forged of strong Hanseti steel, this weapon had the length of the average Bastardsword. The most notable and interesting part of the sword would be its handle, which appeared to have been made of a tough, almost beastly bone, the end of which would also replace the pommel. The blade itself would be sturdy, sharp, and nicely polished, whilst not being too heavy on the hand. The handle of the sword would also be wrapped about with green and blue dyed leather, representing the colors of House Barclay. The Waldenian name “KNOCHENGRIFF” would be carved on each side of the blade vertically. Forged: 1776

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

VII

ADVERSVS

Against

 

This Lunarite dagger coated with Null Arcana was given to Brandt I, Grand Prince of Minitz, later High Pontiff Caius I, by Shugo Kato Oijin at his enthronement.

 

An illustrious dagger, extending in totality to a length of an imperial foot. Its silver and aurum hilt is of the pierce filigree variety of exceptional detail. The obverse is studded with four large azurite stones, and its pommel with a large fluorite stone. 

 

The blade is a straight-edged mastercraft, eight inches constructed originally of the highest quality Starsteel. It glows brightly and appears pure gold due to its alchemical treatment. The blade has also been treated with Null Arcana, giving it anti-voidal properties. Upon the handle is inscribed a Marian prayer to St. Nicholas the Martyr.

 

Currently held by Leon II, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Minitz.

 

VIII

THE SPIRIT OF HERZOG LEON BARCLAY

Spear

 

This spear was gifted to Brandt I by Shugo Kato Oijin to commemorate the death of Brandt’s father, the late Leon I, Duke of Minitz.

 

A spear, six feet in length, which exhibited an ox tongue spearhead shaped from starsteel and a riveted haft of hickory wood, making it a durable but flexible haft. Shallow protrusions extended from the weapon’s base which aided in the parrying of weapons and the tearing of flesh. Around the handle, a silver iron cross rosary and an Oyashiman omamori were intertwined.

 

When illuminated by the light of the Sun or Moon, the spearhead exhibits a soft and silvery glow akin to the glistening of distant stars. It is noted that Lunarite is resistant to corrosion from both alchemical and magical sources.

 

Currently held by Leon II, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Minitz.

 

IX

A PRINCE’S RAVEN’S PEAK

Axe

 

A short cavalry battle-axe of Reinmaren origin measuring 60 centimeters (2.62 feet) in total length bearing a steel axe head of a long, curved beak intended for stabbing on one end and a light axe blade on the opposite side for hacking away at one’s opposition fastened onto an oaken handle. At the butt of the handle, a golden eagle in the style of the Reinmaren crest has been sculpted out into a jagged-blunt instrument for beating people mercifully if need be.

 

This weapon’s steel axe head and eagle fixture has been quenched in Tobias’ Boone leaving an aesthetic golden luster to the metal to make it appear as aurum but without its supernatural qualities. The metal maintains the durability of its original steel. 

 

Currently held by Leon II, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Minitz.

 

X

CEDRIC’S LONG DAGGER

Dagger

 

The first-ever dagger to be smithed by Cedric Barclay. The dagger looked quite normal; ranging at about 20cm, the blade was made out of Hanseti steel, forged to be a very light and easily usable weapon. The pommel and the crossguard of the dagger would both be rounded in the same way, and the handle would be covered in somewhat dark leather straps. Overall, the dagger looked quite decent, though feeling a little clumsy in spots. Not a masterpiece, but a suitable weapon. Forged: 1791

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

XI

ANCIENT THROQAL BONE-TRIDENT

Trident

 

A gruesome-looking weapon roughly the length of a polearm, however, the three spikes upon it were a little shorter than the variant with a blade and one spike on top. The trident was, despite it being carved from bone, fairly sturdy and would rival ferrum in terms of resilience. The light form of it was made for piercing thrusts and pinning down the opponent while maintaining a strong grip, it wasn’t suitable for throwing or bludgeoning. It was non-conductive and resistant to oxidation.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

XII

BLITZSCHWERT

Lightning Sword

 

This magnificent weapon is a masterpiece of medieval swordsmanship. The blade is forged from high-carbon ferrum and has been honed to a razor-sharp edge. The fuller, or groove, running down the center of the blade reduces weight and increases balance. The crossguard and pommel are made from ornately carved and polished gold, adding to the sword’s elegant aesthetic. The hilt is wrapped in supple leather and includes the intricate initials “G.L.B.” When held, this longsword feels like an extension of the arm, allowing for quick and fluid movements in battle. The sword’s graceful lines and perfect balance are a testament to the skill of those who crafted it.

 

Currently held by Alfred I, Prince in Reinmar, Prince of Sutica.

 

XIII

SCHNÈLL

Quick

 

The dagger of Ser Konstanz Barclay, forged in the late years of the continent of Almaris.

 

An exquisite Thahnium dagger with a curved blade. This weapon's azure thahnic-steel blade lent itself well to slicing, and could be used for a devastating, if difficult to pull off, thrust with its curved blade. Both edges of the dagger were sharpened. The weapon featured a very ornate handle, made out of hickory wood, lacquered into a dark brown color.

VAILËDYR OF THE WIND

Hornet Sting

 

A saber of old Elven make, purchased by Ser Konstanz Barclay from an Elven merchant on Almaris.

 

An elaborate Lunarite saber of Elverhilin make, bearing to itself a glistening sheen during the day, and a dull illumination when set beneath the moonlight. The very end of the blade would curve backward as to permit greater and more elegant aerodynamic movement, spanning no more than thirty-six inches. Upon its hilt remained some archaic sigil which only those of a certain house might decipher, in its center a great platinum gem that seemed to sing as softly as the wind. Those who might invoke the power of the sigil by uttering the words "Súrë'velu" shall manifest a luminous glow within the embedded gem, swathes of air beginning to whip about the blade over the course of the next turn. Upon the third emote, a powerful gust may be ejected from the blade upon its next deliberate swipe. This projectile appears as an arc of wind that travels forward for up to eight meters, rendering those it contacts prone and requiring they an emote to recover.
