Logrus Weapons

There exist six weapons that could be described as Logrus weapons, each with differing powers and potential. The art of creating Logrus weapons was known only to a few, including: Borel, Mandor, Suhuy and Swayvill. At present, no one lives who knows the secret of infusing a weapon with the strength of the Logrus...unless one believes the rumors regarding Swayvill's return.

The true power of a Logrus weapon is its ability to damage a foe in such a way that his or her supernatural abilities cannot immediately heal the wound. Rather, wounds inflicted by a Logrus weapon grow more damaging over time, and if efforts to heal the wound are in any way rushed, the wound will rapidly become fatal. For more information on the distinctions between 2-, 4-, 8-, and 16-point damage, please consult the QOA: Damage Rules.

Dominique

Forged by Mandor, Dominique is also known as 'the Edge of Grace.' It is essentially a sorcerer's blade, a rapier that can cast spells independently of its master. In the process of creating the blade, Mandor infused it with the essence of an old lover of his, and her personality and wit are a part of the weapon. Dominique's real power lies in her knowledge, for she was, in all ways, a true peer of Mandor. Damage done by the blade is poisonous, and causes a gradual loss of motor control in the victim. Dominique is currently in the possession of Faust of Amber.

Frakir

A Logrus-empowered garrote that briefly belonged to Merlin Sawall, who never understood its full potential. Little is known about the item, save that it is intelligent and animate. It has not been seen since its attack on Duchess Dara Helgram Sawall, and it is rumored to be an Abyssal weapon now.

Lassiter

Forged by Suhuy as part of his initiation as Keeper of the Logrus, Lassiter is also known as the Tongue of the Serpent. A whip of incredible destructive potential, Lassiter has the ability to destroy magical enchantments, Trump artifacts, and circumvent Pattern defenses. The damage it inflicts takes the form or burns that continue to smolder and damage long after the initial exposure to the whip. Lassiter is currently in the possession of Duke Balaam Amblerash.

[Primal Damage: 16]

The Reflective Fan

A lady's fan made of silver plates polished to a mirror-like sheen and trimmed with lace and opalescent stones. Rumors are vague about the exact nature of the fan, but it is said that the fan can be potentially deadly to the owner if precautions aren't taken. Originally owned by Gride Sawall, the mother of Mandor, the Fan is currently in the possession of Melanie Chanicut.

Reprisal

Forged by Lord Borel, Reprisal is also known as the Kinslayer Rifle. It is essentially a large rifle that fires Logrus energy rounds which burn holes clean through the victim. It is a terribly unsubtle weapon, and tends to draw the attention of anyone sensitive to the manipulations of Logrus Energy. Part of its enchantment is that the weapon seems to work in nearly any environment, even those not normally conducive to technology; it does this by altering Shadow in its immediate proximity. Reprisal is currently in the possession of Duchess Rhees Minobee.

Shrykrull

Swayvill wielded these gauntlets long before he became Emperor of Chaos, though it is not known whether or not he himself forged them. The gauntlets are heavily stylized, featuring three-inch-long talons and barbed knuckle guards, the whole of them made from a dark gray, glossy metal. The gloves also have the ability to create electrical discharges. If the wielder has been instructed in their potential, he or she may create arcs of electrical energy between the two gauntlets, possibly extending the arc to lash at an opponent. Damage inflicted by the gloves is very slow to heal, as with all Logrus weapons, and each contact with the gloves causes a short, intense electrical shock. A blow to the head generally triggers seizures of some sort, in addition to the normal damage. Although one of the gauntlets was recently destroyed, the remaining one is currently in the possession of Duchess Miranda Sawall.
