Celtic Leaf Sword - 85cm

Your Celtic Leaf Sword cuts down another goblin, leaving him in a pile of his buddies. They miscalculated your massive strength, and are reeling backwards on the retreat. They have learned too late that betraying a noble of the Black Water Clan would mean death. It’s too bad they won’t be able to share the word with their kin.

You adjust your sword, letting out a battle cry of rage as another goblin aims for your ankles. This one goes flying fifteen paces.

The sword is 85 cm long from tip to pommel, with a double-edged blade designed for chopping thanks to its leaf-like shape.

HISTORY
