Geared For War

These are drawings of 2 infamous weapons created during the Christian Crusades in response to the slaughters in the name of the church. It is storied that a small sect of heretics enlisted the help of demons for arms to defend a nameless town – known for it’s Smithing- from the Christian armies. The demons from beyond the black door blessed the most gifted Smith with the ability to create 2 special weapons – the Hammer of Agony and The Scourge Mallet. With these two weapons of death in tow, the nameless town never fell or suffered a single defeat, let alone fatality, to the constant invading forces of the church.

After the threats of the Crusades had past, the sect had attempted to destroy the weapons, but ultimately failed as the demons returned to inform that the destruction of the weapons would poison all of their future generations and leave them childless. Rebuking such a fate for their people, the weapons have defended the town against every and any threat since- leaving much death and blood at the doors of the nameless town for as long as it exists.
