Craven Edge

A large, thick, obsidian, onyx-black, two-handed greatsword once wielded by Silas Briarwood. It appears to have a presence of its own, with sentience and intent. Imbued with dark arcane power, it can drain strength from the foes it strikes.

"You..are you my new wielder? ...leave me until one worthy lifts this blade. I am useless left here, I seek the thrill of battle -- I am hungry."

"Do you enjoy drinking the strength of your foes, watching them beaten before you, and have that very power become your own?"

"Do you wish the shadows to encase your form and grant you resilience in anger, forcing those to kneel before you in fear?"
