Bloodthirst Dagger

Lore

The Lord of Murder wasn’t always a lord. He was once just a petty killer. When Bhaalfirst drew blood in a Baldurian back-alley, it dropped to the ground and lingered. When he amended, this dried blond-drop grew, warped - and became sharp.

Description

Overview: Bloodthirst is a legendary Dagger of exceptional power, entrusted to the capable hands of Orin. This blade not only heightens the wielder’s chances of landing critical hits but also grants the ability to invoke the spell “True Strike.”

The origins of Bloodthirst are shrouded in dark history. It was wielded by Bhaal, who was once a mere petty killer before ascending to his infamous status as the Lord of Murder. The weapon’s creation has roots in the earliest manifestations of his malevolence, as the very blood he first shed in a back-alley of Baldur began its transformation into this sinister blade.
