This month is Swordtember. I’m going to try to draw a sword every day for the month. If I manage to keep this going for the whole month, I’ll release all 30 sword images (minus the frame and Swordtember logo I drew) as an incidental stock art pack.

A stylized lightning-like khopesh sacred to the plague and war god Reshep, Skybreaker is a sword +2 that draws down a strike of lightning (as the call lightning spell) when hitting with a natural 20 on an attack under the open sky. If wielded where the sky cannot be accessed (underground or in a solidly constructed building) it instead triggers a cause disease spell instead on the target.
Huh. I don’t get the connection between cause disease and lightning strikes…feels a bit random.
Reshep is a god of war and plagues – originally a plague god from Syria, he was adopted into the Egyptian pantheon during the Eighteenth Dynasty as a martial god and “Lord of the Sky” but still had his plague god stuff going for him too.
