Light of Renere

This was one of the three sacred weapons left to the Vættir by the Celestials in The Second Age to help them defend themselves should any trouble arise.

It was locked away in a Fane some time in The Third Age by the Last Archdruid of the Third Age for reasons that are not entirely clear and retrieved by the Hyggoth half-elven bard Arianyth of Dør (who later became famous as Lord Nyth of Stronghold). She and her partner the Sorceress Völva used it to unite the people of the Ickown plains and build the only city of The Fourth Age.

It was later taken from her corpse by the Heroes of the Fourth Age and used in their quest to defeat The Forgotten Powers. After the Arr Mountains fell and the Seal was cast over the place that once was Stronghold, Joergen entrusted the blade to his eldest son, Jorg Platebraker, first Commander of the Citadel.

Powers

The Light of Renere is a +5 Longsword that deals an additional 2d6 damage that counts as both fire and radiant for the purposes of considering a creature's Vulnerabilities. A creature must be resistant or immune to both radiant and fire damage in order to enjoy any protection from the Light of Renere's 2d6 extra damage.
