Original equipment
Tarnished Bulwark
sword · approved
Each item point boosts the wearer's matching base stat by 0.5%. DEF points also add 0.25% battle HP each.
A sturdy, classic heater-shaped shield with a rounded top and pointed bottom, rendered in stone gray with a silver-white trim and bold black outline. It looks like it could block a dragon sneeze or at least a very strongly worded complaint.
Weapon technique
Granted automatically by this weapon's type.
+3 damage on every hit, and +5 against Lightweight fighters. Brought a sword; found the paper wanting.
Engravings
Starts the fight at 40% max HP; the first time it would hit 0, it returns once with +3 to every stat and 60% max HP restored. Was holding back on purpose. Probably.
Attack and defense climb as your HP falls — up to +6 each at death's door. Cornered is when it turns dangerous.
