This finely crafted +1 striking shortsword is carried by field marshals and other military officers who fight alongside their troops on the battlefield. Numerous other types of this blade exist, ranging from falchions to scimitars to longswords, and their appearances vary as widely as the nations and causes to which their wielders swear fealty. Many say that a soldier can tell the worth of their commanding officer by noting whether their primary weapon gives off the faint residual glow associated with a radiant victory.
