In-game description

Unique curved sword, notched like shark's teeth. Weapon carried by corpse pillagers who prowl the sites of old battles.

The blade is tacky with blood and covered in hefty nicks, making it totally uneven. Life can be sinister indeed.

Attack rating by affinity 13

At Str 10 · Dex 14 · Int 10 · Fai 10 · Arc 10 (each stat at the weapon's requirement, 10 where it has none), one-handed.
