Sean K. Reynolds' site has a new blade of Faerun up. Behold Glory of Gold, a Waukeen dagger. |

You're welcome and I'm glad the link proved to be helpful. I know I've enjoyed reading the various blades more than many weapons I've encountered in products I purchased.
As have I. These blades have character.  |

I had originally planned to do weapons for the 30 deities that have full writeups in the FRCS. According to my records, I still have two left from that list (Umberlee and Uthgar).
After that, I don't know, I'll have to see what my schedule is like. I've been doing the Blades off and on for something like 4 years now, I think I might want a change of pace. :) |

{It would be nice, however, if a couple of them also had the property "Skillful" as found in the Complete Arcane.}

That would nicely round out the sword for Azuth and some of the dieties for whom Wizards and Sorcerers are the prime congregation.
I also wonder if there is a corresponding site that has some diety/religeon specific non-weapon items?
I'm not sure about a site, but I believe the new issue of Dragon is supposed to have deity specific magic items or artifacts. |

A new blade is up. Take a look at Balance Point (Silvanus). |

I think that is why it is so interesting reading about these blades.
Good point. Blades with so many +++++ should have a good history. As for using these blades, I'd put them more at the center of something the PCs have to obtain for a certain church/other agency rather than something they will wield personally. |

Yeah, that one and Inspired to War both slid by me, and I only discovered them when someone else linked to the site (I think it was over on Worlds). |
