Description[]

Bastard sword +1, +3 vs. shapeshifters: 'Kondar'. At a first glance, this sword appears as much like any other. In the presence of a shapeshifters however, the blade becomes warm as its power stirs. Its namesake was the original owner of the weapon, and his tale, through mostly long forgotten, was wrought with treachery and deceit. Rumors persist that he paid a fearsome price for this blade, but with it he revealed the true identities of those that sought to betray him. Their names and crimes however, are long since lost to history.
