Something like this?


a time-ravaged rolaren dagger

SHOW: This ancient dagger shows the ravages of time. The long, straight blade, nicked and pitted with age, is pointed, indicating this is a weapon designed for stabbing rather than slashing. The handle is made of some sort of bone around which a single, thin strand of rough sisal has been repeatedly and tightly wound, providing a sure grip even for a sweaty hand. The sisal is stained brown with age and dirt. On the blade, just above the small crossbar, is the sigil of Ta'Nalfein. You also notice a small enchanter's mark.

LORESONG:

"A profound sadness came over as I began to sing. The dagger suddenly seemed heavier in my hand. I saw the blade as it was when it was newly-forged...bright, lethally sharp, pure. The vision expanded slowly and I became aware the blade was being passed from an aged, scarred hand to a muscular young one.

"The vision expands, more of the scene appears. The evening sun streams through tall, narrow windows. The sea, green and tempest-tossed, is visible through the window. Two Elves...one elderly, sitting in a comfortable chair, the other in the first blush of adulthood and standing painfully straight...face each other. The elder, his eyes bright despite his advanced years, hands the dagger hilt-first to the younger. Pride and pleasure are apparent in both faces."

"With a suddenness that made me dizzy the scene shifts. It is night. Clouds obscure the moon. I see the young Elf climb noiselessly over a stone parapet. He presses himself into the shadows and slowly, quietly draws the blade from a silk-lined sheath. A short break in the cloud cover reveals his face, shifting between fear and determination. A sentry, human, dressed in Turamzzyrian colors, idles by...and dies silently. The young elf glides to an open window. Inside can be seen the form of somebody curled in sleep, wrapped in fine, saffron-colored linen sheets."

Jarring images whirled through my head. Deep red arterial blood on saffon-colored sheets. Shouting. A reckless, bruising scramble down a stone wall on a black horsehair rope. Flights of arrows thrilling through the air, winking in the moonlight. Pain. Gasping. Fear. With determination I managed to hold onto a final image...a marshy grotto. The young Elf, bleeding from a dozen wounds, kneels in the muck and calmly wraps the handle of the dagger in black silk. He closes his eyes, sets the pointed blade to his throat."

Nice, but no.

My rogue is very selective. Shows are not really important..I'm just wanting something besides "a dagger" or "a leaf bladed dagger" (which is the items I currently have). Maybe something in black or red, or even both black and red. But not made of bone or anything of the like :)

Thanks for showing that dagger though, a very interesting item :)

You tap a jagged drakar kidney dagger.

Hrm..interesting. What is a kidney dagger? How does it differ from a nomral dagger?

Has a longer, thinner blade than a "standard" dagger. The guards are kidney shaped, hence the name.

[Trinitis]

Ok, I've been told I should explain more of what I'm wanting.

My RP is of a dagger expert. I'm basicly looking for his most prized dagger. Something that would be very very nice looking. No sign of wear or mistreatment. He prizes his daggers, and this dagger would be the best of the best.

So this is out of the question?: You tap a dull iron dagger with a badly notched blade.

[Trinitis]

Yes drew :) Sorry. Hehehe

Tayres is tempting, except the jagged edge part..with my wheatstone, it'd be pretty dumb to have a jagged edged knife

[Drew2]

Jagged knives don't need sharpening?

[longshot]

You could make it your really old, trusted, and sacred dagger...

Think "Billy Baru" from Caddyshack...

Oh Billy Billy Billy Billy....

Depends on how you view jagged. Jagged to me is as a broken blade. Serrated (spelling?) is what I think your picturing. :)

and no, you don't use a stone on a blade like that.

[Drew2]

Well if you would have posted this yesterday, you would have had the stock of On Edge at your disposal.

[Marl]

a bloody vultite dagger with an ebon hilt.

[Gan]

check your U2U

[AnticorRifling]

a thin flawless steel dagger

[AnticorRifling]

I also have:

a haon-hafted drakar sgian dubh

But that was Anticor's skinning blade and that's not leaving it's home inside his boot. :)

[Jenisi]

I have a hot bodice dagger.. a drake one infact...

You tap a gem-set drake bodice dagger.

This short dagger has been carefully crafted to be stored in easily accessible places for a quick draw. The short thin blade has been graced with detailed silver ivy vines, and the nearly non-existent guard holds a series of small pearls. The hilt is adorned with the same silverwork, and the pommel is graced with a small black diamond.

[Hips]

I have... a thin black crimson-swirled dagger and a crimson-swept black onyx dagger.
