The Sword of Alimantier

By Chris Wilson (mech@europa.com)

Alimantier is a medieval broadsword containing the soul of a 6th generation Brujah. It is unclear who the Brujah was in his previous unlife, Alimantier doesn't remember, but it is known that he was quite powerful. The broadsword itself is of superior craftsmanship, to the point of being a deadly work of art (Appearence of 6). Hand engraved dragons line the polished blade. The hilt is polished steel plated in gold and crested with emeralds.

Alimantier grants its user with the disciplines of the Brujah soul which created it. All damage done to Kindred by this blade is aggravated. Blood that is on the blade will soak into the metal and disappear, as the Brujah soul drinks it.

Alimantier will attempt to lash out at what it believes are enemies. The first time the sword is used, the wielder must make an opposed Self-Control roll vs. Alimantier's Willpower. If the roll is failed, the wielder must make a frenzy roll. If the roll is botched, the wielder will automatically enter frenzy.
