[QUOTE="doghead, post: 2362969, member: 8243"] [b]Xavier Roces, male human Servant of Hieroneous.[/b] Xavier considers the sword for a moment, turning it in his hands and feeling the heft and weight.

Today I ride out as a simple Servant of Hieroneous, and don't need such a fine weapon. If you would feel more comfortable, I would be perfectly happy with a regular blade."
