Rondra’s Crest

Other Names: Rondrakamm (original), Rondracomb
Alternative names: Rondracomb

“You boast of killing servants of the Twelvegods? Those are big words indeed. Draw your weapons and let your blades do the talking! Our swords roar like the brave lioness, but I suspect that yours whimper like cowards.”
-Rowin of Perricum, Blessed One of Rondra, modern

The Rondra’s Crest is the world-famous symbol of Blessed Ones of Rondra. This sanctified weapon is recognized throughout Aventuria, but its ownership is restricted to Blessed Ones of Rondra.

Its uniquely-shaped blade symbolizes perfection in warfare and is the pride of every Rondranian warrior. Rondra’s Crests require a certain amount of strength to wield effectively, yet their construction favors precise handling. With training and practice, wielders may perform surprisingly elegant combat maneuvers.

Though slow to unlimber, the sword easily deflects even the most determined attack.

“As you know, I dislike all weapons, except for my cudgel. But I must admit that I am impressed by the Rondra’s Crest, and I admire our Rondranian brothers and sisters for guarding pilgrims of all the Churches of the Twelve.”

— Brother Hilbert of Auen, Blessed One of Peraine
