The Ichorbound Greatsword

A singular, large greatsword forged from blood iron and tempered in the ichor of demons. It is a human made item, which had been acquired from earth many years ago and kept within Loehs.

HISTORY

Forged by a human smith after socialising with Fae, and they had whispered about demons and angels and what can hurt and injure them. The smith - having had the fear of Christian devils put into him as a child - decided that his magnum opus would be a weapon capable of killing and destroying one of these creatures.
He spent many months collecting pigs and other mammals, draining them of blood and slowly refining the iron found within into enough metal to create a greatsword.
One of the fae he had talked to about angels and demons delivered a corpse to his door that day, almost exactly upon the time where he was to begin tempering the sword.

"Hail, Smith," the being grinned with many teeth and dripping hair. "I've brought thee a gift."
The smith eyed the pale body on the ground. There were feathers. "Your lot don't give gifts freely, what is the price?"
The being shook their head, still grinning. "That which is being made is payment enough. Use the fluid found within," they nudged their foot against the corpse. "for the temper."

Unknown to him, the fae had delivered him the corpse of a Nephilimic demon, whose ichor was made of both Hellionic and Choiric origins. He didn't know what it was, but he drained the body of its "blood" all the same. It was a sickly looking bronze as it oozed from from the corpse, but it swirled of its own accord and looked almost gold in the firelight from the forge.
The ichor had the consistency of oil, yet didn't burn or boil when the heated sword was placed in it. After he pulled the sword each time, it had gained strange patterns upon its surface, the likes of which he had never seen before. No matter how much he scrubbed at these patterns, they would not be removed.
When the sword was finished, the fae turned up at his doorstep once again. With them was a creature who looked oddly similar to the body of the Nephilimic that lay in his workshop, out of sight.
A Choiric. The fae asked for them both to enter, and the smith was far too reverent for his holy presence before him to refuse entry.
The fae talked to the angel, promising that they managed to get this smith to create a holy weapon, the likes that could marvel the infusion of angels. The angel was awestruck and didn't notice what happened next.
The fae had grabbed the sword, and swung it haphazardly toward the angel, who was caught off guard. The smith could only watch as the greatsword he had crafted to destroy the devils and demons of his faith carved straight through the torso of the holy being before him.
After all, the sword was tempered in Nephilimic ichor, and Choiric angels are demons regardless.
The fae told the smith to create another sword, this time using the ichor from the holy creature before him. He smith was frightened, and accepted as the fae had held of the greatsword and looked willing to use it.
Soon after this incident, word managed to spread and a volley of demons game down upon the fae who had taken the sword, and stormed the forge of the smith who created it. The sword was reclaimed, and is now stored away by demons.
