Original poster
Once, the world was in peril. A great war of the gods sent energy hurtling toward Feyrdon, threatening to destroy the planet. In response, the Forge God and the War Goddess crafted mighty weapons and ensouled them. Each soul matched the soul of a mortal and each weapon had magic within, such as fire or ice. Each also had a gift, such as the Lava Sword which has the power to seek other swords and their masters out. Finally, each sword will turn into the weapon its master has training in, be it stave, axe, rapier, mace, or dagger, as well as hide as a talisman when not in use.
But the most important thing about these swords and their masters, beyond sheer power, is that the masters can combine the energies of their swords to create the great shield that once protected Feyrdon. But this is a last resort, as doing so will kill every Sword Mage and cause the swords to be scattered, the mages to reincarnate and only be called on in a dire emergency, and their protection to be lost from the world.
Oh. And one more thing. The swords are cursed. The masters may never gain lasting fame. It's a thankless job...
You may play a sword mage or another sort of magical or nonmagical character.
Please no gods.
Sword mages may have any sort of job that exists in a fantasy setting, even royalty or priests.
Do try to play good or neutral aligned characters.
Keep your sword to a theme/element (fire, water, ice, wind, plants, animals, etc.)
You may start with an active sword, a talisman that later turns into a sword, or neither.
If you know you are a sword mage, you are unaware as to why you've been awakened.
This is an original world, so no fandom characters.
Talismans can be insect or nature themed.
You can always hide your sword as a talisman if needed.
Have fun!
