Short Elven Axe

Your village is in danger. You’d been out on a hunt when you discovered the oncoming undead, coming through the mountain pass in droves. You can only just warn your people in time if you run ahead of them!

You cut down one of the undead scouts as you near your village using your sharpened Short Elf Axe. It cuts through bone easily; you’re glad you brought it along.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Short Elf Axe is a deadly 70 cm axe designed for swift elven hands against the worst and most evil of enemies. It has a 44 cm long axe-blade with a curved beard, hand painted to look like real metal. The head is actually made of soft foam, reinforced with a harder foam core. It attaches to the beautiful golden wood textured shaft which is hand painted and sculpted to look like real wood grain.

Made from durable closed cell foam around a solid fibreglass core and finished with a strong latex coating, your new LARP long axe will provide the safety and appeal you want when crafting your ethereal kit.

HISTORY

• The first hafted axe was created about 6,000 B.C. using birch-tar and raw-hide lashings to fix the blade to its handle
• Many battle axes doubled as tools and were cheaper to make than swords
• Similar in design to the Epic Armoury Long Elf Axe

Never go into battle before first tasting your favorite ale. That is the advice you would give any of your fellow Dwarves, for you never know when this may be your last fight.

You slam your Battle Axe onto the table as you await the finest dark ale you know. The tavern was quiet before you walked inside, tense with the anticipation of a coming war, but you are loud and bring life back to its walls. You raise a toast to the barkeep and to any nearby, granting them glory on the battlefield before drinking deeply from your mug.

It would be a true shame to leave this world while thirsty.

You spend a long time deciding what to name your battle axe. It has to be perfect--something that will cause fear in the hearts of your enemies. You originally took the axe from an executioner in the last village you visited, a man whose job was to chop off the heads of thieves.

Perhaps it was not the wisest idea to steal from such a person.

Still, it has a nice ring to it. Executioner.

Your Elven Wing Axe was given to you by an elvish blacksmith many years ago. You and your party had done an incredible deed for the elf’s people, and he claimed that someday this axe would save your life. You remember those words now as you face the orc raiders.

With great skill and the fantastical effectiveness of your elvish weapon, you find you are able to hold the enemy back. Not everyone in your party's so lucky--the archer is down again, to no one’s real surprise--but you may very well pull through in the end!

The elven army is an incredibly dangerous one, as its members have all trained longer than most mortals have been alive. You are a member of such army. Dressed in matching armour, you stand at attention with your nearly identical kindred, your Long Elf Axe standing at your side in a row.

There is no fear on your face as your Lord sits upon his stag and surveys the orcs before you. The orcs gather in their chaos, their numbers far out matching your own. But still you do not fear, for every elf is worth at least ten of the enemy.
