Mantooth

Article written by Kranar Drogin & Klangor


Mantooth, also known as Magekiller, Spellcleaver, Darkstar, and Magefool, was a Longsword that was able to reflect spells, sometimes even sending them back upon the caster. Mantooth was also able to dispel magical forces such as wall of stone, wall of force, arcane lock, or prismatic sphere.

History of Mantooth

Folk tales credit this blade with the undoing of Sylvyana, the Ghoul Queen, and binding of the ogre-mage, Shril. It is said that Dereg Raynhold, a Knight of the Sword, used it against Sylvyana but during the battle he and her gods-given blade were cursed, so he started a long trial in search for a cure. Finally he found redemption in the sacred waters of the Fountain of Renewal. Time passed and the sword ended in the hands of the Silvanesti Elves in Silvanost where it laid for many ages. The sword was given to Caramon Majere, by Alhana Starbreeze, after the Nightmare was dispelled. Caramon carried it for many years, but the actual whereabouts of the sword now are unknown.
