You feel a rumble come from beneath your feet.
The floor begins to shiver slightly, casting thin ripples across the landscape. As the protuberances increase in intensity, an enormous rift crawler launches to the surface from within! The crawler's massive maw lies agape, its glistening obsidian teeth gnashing at everything in their path!

An enormous rift crawler lifts up the end of its huge tail and slams it into the floor, shaking everything violently!

You struggle against the dull feeling of the stun but cannot shake it!

The silvery thread drops to the ground suddenly. The thread writhes and twists for a moment, then slithers off!

Focusing on your bloodlust, you shake yourself out of the stun!

You quickly roll to the right, then spring to your feet, ready again for action!

I once survived an encounter with Jeril with my pants still in tact. Hardest fight of my life.

[SHAFT]

Nice! Tell me about the claidh you're swinging.

[KmberlynX]

Nice! Tell me about the claidh you're swinging.

His name is "Dragonvale" He's a 1x fusion claidhmore with a +8 THW and +4 STR bonus orb.

Show:
Folded repeatedly to increase the strength of the metal, the mithril of this weapon is rippled ever so slightly so that any ambient light catches on the waves and throws it back as shards of brilliance. Along the outer edges of the twin blades, serrations form the back crests of two dragons that course the length of the weapon from tip to guard in elaborate etching. The cross of the weapon is formed as the dragons' heads overlap and rise as the limbs, their ruby-eyed faces turned toward the blades. Two spherical depressions adorn the dragon-etched claidhmore, approximately the size and shape of a small gem. The chambers currently hold a rich sunset orange orb, and a shining hoarfrost white orb.

The chamber surrounding a rich sunset orange orb is alive with steady radiance. It appears to have come a bit loose in its depression, and could easily be pried free without causing any damage.

There appears to be something written on it:

Along the spherical ruby pommel of the claidhmore, the following name has been engraved: Dragonvale.

[SHAFT]

Pretty sweet. Keep up the good work.
