[QUOTE="Maester Luwin, post: 3430288, member: 23259"] Hey everyone! My old Forgotten Realms campaign was a bast. It was based on an old Dragon article (can't remember which one) which dealt with magical daggers that were made to be joined together. Two daggers make a swort sword. Three make a longsword. Four a bastard sword. Finally, all five joined make a great sword. A priest of Tiamat made the daggers... one for each color of the evil dragons- red. blue, black, ect. Each time the daggers were combined the bearer gained an extra minor magical ability... such a flight. Now this Priest had a reason to have these daggers joined. Once all five were brought together the greatsword could be used in a ritual that would tear a rift in the prime material plane... allowing Tiamat herself to return to Faerun! The Harpers discovered & foiled the plot. They (perhaps Elminister) enchanted the daggers so they became dragon bane blades (+3) of throwing. The Harpers also used their far flung membership to scatter the daggers all over Faerun. To better to keep them apart. At the start of the campaign all players were Harpers or Harper agents who had gathered in Sembia to seek out the dggers (The Harpers found out the the Cult of the Dragon as well as the Church of Tiamat were searching for the daggers). The Zhent agents in Sembia found out about them & began seeking them as well. Little known to the players but Shar supported by Cyric (& his agents) were seeking he blades also.
