Karrak's Weaponry
« on: September 17, 2004, 01:46:00 pm »
Several centuries ago, when Xantril was still called the Roughlands, the Guild of Power was the place where fighters and weapon masters from all over Layonara came to practice and hone their skills to perfection. Once every decade, the Guild’s founder, Karrak, and his successors would host the Guild Championships, one for every type of melee weapon. The Championships would go on for weeks, but in the end, there would be a winner for every type of melee weapon. These skilled fighters would then be anointed Master of the weapon in question. This was not just a ceremonial title, as the new Masters would also receive the Master’s Weapon. These weapons were specially commissioned by Karrak when he founded his Guild, and a Master would bear the weapon for a decade. These weapons were not just ceremonial, but things of beauty and power. A Master’s weapon could be recognized by the Guild of Power’s emblem somewhere on the weapon’s striking surface.  Unfortunately, the Guild has been destroyed and Karrak’s weaponry has been scattered across the continents, the owners probably not even aware of the history and the power of the weapons they possess.
