Forged by the Gods: Difference between revisions

== Anime and Manga ==

* The original [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Lance of Longinus]]. It's over 4 billion years old, capable of [[Morph Weapon|shapeshifting]] and can [[One-Hit Kill]] [[Cosmic Horror|Angels]].

 

== Comic Books ==

* In the ''Palladium Role-Playing Game'', the [[Our Vampires Are Different|Vampire]] [[Cosmic Horror|Intelligence]], posing as a God, defeats another Intelligence that tries to muscle in on his turf and turns it into a powerful sword. He actually ''prefers'' that the weapon falls into the hands of mortals whenever possible, as the fact that such a powerful monster is now just a tool for mortals is all part of the punishment.

* The relics in ''[[Scion]]'' are not only of exemplary quality, but they're often the only means through which starting characters can channel the Boons of their divine parents.

*** It's not quite clear if the 40k Vaul's swords were literal swords though. The Eldar legends about the War in Heaven tend to be rather metaphorical and not directly based on the actual events (the war itself is an actual historical event though).

**** Still, it is a pretty awesome weapon. Anaris "The Sword of Dawn Light" (in 40k) was sufficiently cool that it allowed the crippled forge god Vaul to challenge the god of war Khaine (before he got the title Kaela Mensha) and provide a serious fight. Later used by a Eldar named Eldanesh (brought to him by falcon) to challenge Khaine to personal combat. A battle that the god of war barely won, and his brutal killing of Eldanesh earned him the title Kaela Mensha Khaine (Bloody Handed Khaine) and got him cursed to drip the blood of Eldanesh from his hands for all time.
