[QUOTE="Riastlin, post: 5497243, member: 94022"] Yeah as Colmarr says, there's all kinds of ways to do this. Maybe the artifact belonged to a mentor, or an ancestor of your character. Or, maybe it serves as a symbol of "office" so to speak, such that when you reach Epic level (or high paragon or whatever), the weapon is bestowed upon you. This could be done through the tribe, or through your character's benefactors, etc. As an example, in the game I'm running, I am going to be giving the Avenger a sentient falchion that will upgrade over time. The falchion will be bestowed upon him by the Church as part of ascension to his paragon path. I'm tying the choice of this particular weapon into the story line as well, with the background being that the flachion is given out only at the most dire of times, etc. Maybe your warden's order has something similar, or the tribe does, etc. Lots of possibilities here, but its hard to get into too many specifics without knowing more about your character. What makes him tick? What paragon path is he taking? What epic destiny? etc. etc. [/QUOTE]
