    Dunamis: From McKiernan's The Eye of the Hunter, the sword of the elfess Riatha, which had the property of drawing power from the lifeforce of ones' friends, prematurely aging/killing them. Great weapon.

    Krystallopyr: Giant crystal sword stolen by Taro Ofuchi in The Gamer's Alliance, later used by Kagetsu to <s>defeat Arawn</s> destroy the world

    The Krill: Used by Loric Vilesilencer to...um...silence Viles. And the Demondim, although now that I have a better idea about what the Demondim are, I don't see how the Krill would have been of any use.

    Mithrandir: A big effing sword.

    This is kinda sorta off topic, but it's interesting to note that the Hebrew people never named their swords. Even though their history is probably the most war-torn of all histories(with heroes, villains, princesses, etc,) they never named a single weapon that was used. Even the Old Testament poets, like Isaiah, didn't. Hmmm, it's something to think about.
    My only guess is that Israel attributed all glory in battle either to Jehovah, or to the man(like David or Samson) and not his weapon. For instance David killed Goliath with only a sling and some stones. Basicly the weaker the weapon, the more glorious the man. And accordingly, especially in the New Testament with Jesus's new teachings, "for all who draw the sword will die by the sword..." Matthew 26:50 the sword became something of a metaphor for teaching peace through the words that one uses.
    "For The Word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." Hebrews 4:12

    Not trying to preach just interesting to think about.

    It's disconcerting to think that we have no heroes, no Arthur and Excalibur; to pass down to the generations that follow us. Unless in the year 2250 they'll be reading about Albert Einstein and his Atom Bomb.
