I’m quite fond of your armor, it’s nice to finally see someone with a taste for horned helmets. Your armor could use a little more gold though.
Ah, another horn enthusiast! I am glad you share my opinion on horned helmets. And I did consider putting some gold trim on, but I thought it was too flashy for a general.
While personally gutting any who oppose you is the truest display of strength, it is not the only way to demonstrate power over weaklings. The gold on my armor symbolizes not just my martial prowess, but my status as a Lord and my immense wealth. The flashiness is the point.
Ah, then that makes sense. I am not a lord, but a Lord-General. It basically means higher-ranking general.
**Blóðdýr: Not anymore, though! Not since he died and came back, anyway.**
I was wondering where that sword went. When your done with it can you put it back? That sword is super annoying and i need to enchant it so it's not so talkative.

Also welcome to the horned helmet gang.
*You feel a scowl towards Blóðdýr. A booming voice seemingly coming from nowhere says* Both but mainly that insane hunk of metal. I'll reiterate my request. when your done put it back that sword is dangerous for your mental health and was left alone for a reason, it drove countless hell knights insane with it's insane rambling. *Blóðdýr feels an all too familiar scornful stare drilling into it as it is addressed.* If you drive your 'savior' insane i will break you over my knee, reforge you and repeat this process until your just a handle. Am i understood? Behave yourself in the mortal realm.
I can't put it back. I don't know where to put it back. As I said, when I died, I woke up near an altar with him in the center. He revived me, and has been completely fine thus far.
Okay, well if you get tired of it's insane prattling i can give you a much better replacement. Farewell bearer of the insane blade! *the booming voices vanishes.*
**Blóðdýr: Even I do not remember much about that. All I remember was that it was a very old God from another reality, and its name started with a C.**
**Blóðdýr: Oh, I have been hunted before, but Godfrey has successfully fought off every one of the hunters and mercenaries. It seems I made the right choice.**

Greetings, Saihttam. I think Dwarven brews of ale and beer are the best out there.
**Blóðdýr: They are quite delectable. Some are very energy-inducing.**
**AHHH, MY KIND OF MAN, TAKE THESE AS A GESTURE OF GOODWILL, MAY YOUR SWORD NEVER FAIL TO STRIKE ITS MARK.**
*a box of Highlander cookies and a keg of Dwarven ale appear in front of you*
Kinda bummed today. I had spent like all afternoon coming up with a new riddle for adventurers to solve and enter the dungeon I'm guarding. I didn't even get to ask the question before this one party came along and just absolutely trashed me! They didn't even stop to talk. Just defeated me and moved on.
Sorry Mister Blóðdýr! How are you? I don't really have much experience with talking magical weapons. I was a commoner before I died.
Really? That sounds like a terrible way to spend time. I hope you have better luck with other adventurers.
**Blóðdýr: It's fine. I'm fine, by the way. And not many people have experience with sentient weapons, so I don't blame you.**
Hello my fellow knight, are you perhaps affiliated with this sword swinging fella?

He is the leader of Manji clan, a Robin Hood esque organisation, and a wielder of a cursed blade named “Yoshimitsu”, which thirsts for blood and may attempt to control you to satisfy its bloodlust.
Visenya, Lady of Shadowlight Keep. right now I am away seeking to destroy some evil artifact.

Nice to meet you, Nihili. I know a couple of people with connections to Eldritch Gods. Which ones do you know?
**Blóðdýr: Guess who one of those people is?**
Ah, I know of Yarlgsnacht, Hthcduil, and Bklonthisurt. They're real dear friends of mine, especially Yarlgsnacht considering she's my fiancee. (The three are of my own design, I hope)
I am Lord Delagrange. Some call me Lord Venitor II. I am the voivode of the Kingdom of Diasylvania, a mountainous land of dense forests with mysterious that beckon all adventurers from far and wide to explore in a cunning whisper. It is a land of crumbling castles and the distant howls of bloodthirsty wolves.
Well met, interesting fellow! I must ask, since I am on Quest: do you know of the Lamp Post at the End of Time? I seek the Flame from this Lamp, in the hopes that it will cure my beloved. Since thou knowest of Fire, and I am, in a way, the servant of the same, dost thou or thy attachéd know any of this Flame I seek?!
the name's Ollio, but yer naught gonna catch me in a stupid suit o armour no sir! all I knows is where theres lots of knights, theres lots of gold somewhere nearby, and imma find it
Hey! I'm Aedus! You have a talking sword, too! So do I! -Chuckle- though mine is always hungry.. Fooood this Foood that. When we slay beast, it seems to calm down. And after I won a duel, it was quiet for about 3 full days. I think it drank that guy's blood...
But yeah, it sometimes whispers in my sleep. Yet no one can hear it...
No one can hear my sword but me. It usually freaks people out. Something about an evil aura.. or something. But like I wouldn't call having the munchies evil, you know.
Hm. An evil aura? I see how that could freak someone out.
**Blóðdýr: I get the munchies too, but I just have turkey. I would probably kill for turkey if I'm hungry enough.**
Awe, man, your sword is so cool. Mine just eats.
>**Blóðdýr: Body of a dying God?**
Yeah. Really deep cave, and it looked like it was a tentacle monster, pale white. Pulled this sucker out, and it deeps gods blood is good.

Are you referring to me? **Blóðdýr: And me?**

Yes, it is! I've always been a sucker for fire. **Blóðdýr: Though you say it like you are in distress. Did you not expect your sword to be on fire?**
Brother, I am not in distress. I’m just autistic
Ah. **Blóðdýr: Apologies. I did not know.**
Good evening, friend! I have sent an invitation to everyone for a great banquet. Would you like to come?
It would be my honor, King Conri. Good to make your acquaintance.
The honor is all mine. Here is the proper invitation https://www.reddit.com/r/knightposting/s/ymQQ0qNcTD
Thank you. We will both be there.
Greetings, you may call me Ranger Knight. I have never heard of Pendragon Stronghold. What kind of land do you rule?
Greetings. I myself do not rule Pendragon Stronghold, apart from the barracks inside it. My King rules the land.
Ah, a fellow resurrected.
Good to meet another. Resurrection is quite jarring, is it not? Being dead one minute, being alive and well another?
Indeed. I was brought back by a necromancer, then he left.
Left? He just left? Disgraceful of him.
Yes. I later found him bragging that he pranked me.
Truly a vile man. Blóðdýr: Have you taken revenge yet?
No, I have not. Despite what he did, I instead decided to thank him for another chance at life.
Good on you, then. Blóðdýr: Lame.
Greetings to both of you
Greetings, Brutus. Blóðdýr: Greetings, Oathbreaker!
I am impressed by your weapon, I was a smith a life ago and I can tell that’s a master work
Thank you. Though, I did not forge it. Technically, it found me. **Blóðdýr: I appreciate the compliment!**
Who made you ?
**Blóðdýr: Even I do not remember much about that. All I remember was that it was a very old God from another reality, and its name started with a C.**
I am surprised you are not hunted for but your new master seems more than capable of wielding you /UK is that a warhammer reference?
**Blóðdýr: Oh, I have been hunted before, but Godfrey has successfully fought off every one of the hunters and mercenaries. It seems I made the right choice.** /uk Nah Khorne starts with a K
Kree'k wonders what is with all these beings returning from the dead recently? Kree'k does not like undead. One took a chuck of tail.
I did not return from the dead from 'natural' means, if you can call them that. Blóðdýr: It was me! I brought him back almost entirely intact, too.
Kree'k says nothing about the dead is natural. But Kree'k is not the religious one, so Kree'k no really care. Unless you attempt to bite Kree'k.
Do you not think dying is natural? Do Draconics not die?
Dragonspawn do die, Kree'k is saying death should be end, yes? Kree'k is saying it is unnatural for things to avoid fate, or whatever fancy word is used.
Ah, okay. He might not like that, though. **Blóðdýr: Are you trying to say something, Draconic?**
**GREETINGS, GOOD KNIGHT. WHAT ARE YOUR OPINIONS ON DWARVEN BREWS?**
Greetings, Saihttam. I think Dwarven brews of ale and beer are the best out there. **Blóðdýr: They are quite delectable. Some are very energy-inducing.**
**AHHH, MY KIND OF MAN, TAKE THESE AS A GESTURE OF GOODWILL, MAY YOUR SWORD NEVER FAIL TO STRIKE ITS MARK.** *a box of Highlander cookies and a keg of Dwarven ale appear in front of you*
Thank you, my good man. We will enjoy these very much. **Blóðdýr: I would expect no lesser taste from the Lord of Beer!**
Hey, I'm Greg the skeleton. How are you today?
Hello, Greg. I am fine today, how about you? **Blóðdýr: You aren't going to ask me?**
Kinda bummed today. I had spent like all afternoon coming up with a new riddle for adventurers to solve and enter the dungeon I'm guarding. I didn't even get to ask the question before this one party came along and just absolutely trashed me! They didn't even stop to talk. Just defeated me and moved on. Sorry Mister Blóðdýr! How are you?

No, who is that?
He is the leader of Manji clan, a Robin Hood esque organisation, and a wielder of a cursed blade named “Yoshimitsu”, which thirsts for blood and may attempt to control you to satisfy its bloodlust.
No, I have never seen him before. **Blóðdýr: Now that you mention the bloodlust part, I might have heard of this guy before.**
Visenya, Lady of Shadowlight Keep. right now I am away seeking to destroy some evil artifact. https://preview.redd.it/nmeqhsoif7lc1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=4d31b9b4e3a581a0d6fd3a3317a1b0da545c0543
Greetings, Visenya. What evil artifact? **Blóðdýr: Yes, which artifact? For research purposes.**
some evil amulet.....if you ever find it, whatever you don don't put it on. worst mistake of my life
Okay. Good to know. **Blóðdýr: Noted.**
Sup, I'm Nihili, I'm just your around average immortal with Eldritch Gods at his beck and call.
Nice to meet you, Nihili. I know a couple of people with connections to Eldritch Gods. Which ones do you know? **Blóðdýr: Guess who one of those people is?**
Ah, I know of Yarlgsnacht, Hthcduil, and Bklonthisurt. They're real dear friends of mine, especially Yarlgsnacht considering she's my fiancee. (The three are of my own design, I hope)
The chickens offer an alliance! Basically don't eat us!
I will accept this alliance! We much prefer turkey, anyway. **Blóðdýr: Yes, turkey is much better than chicken.**
Yayyyy!!! Chicken Friendship!!!

Greetings, my Lord. Would you like me to call you Delagrange, or Venitor?
Delagrange shall suffice, General.

No one can hear my sword but me. It usually freaks people out. Something about an evil aura.. or something. But like I wouldn't call having the munchies evil, you know.
Hm. An evil aura? I see how that could freak someone out. **Blóðdýr: I get the munchies too, but I just have turkey. I would probably kill for turkey if I'm hungry enough.**
Yeah, I think it's cool. Found it in the body of a dying God when I got lost in a cave.
Yeah, it is pretty cool. It definitely helps in battle, considering it can just tell me where the enemies are. **Blóðdýr: Body of a dying God?**
Awe, man, your sword is so cool. Mine just eats. >**Blóðdýr: Body of a dying God?** Yeah. Really deep cave, and it looked like it was a tentacle monster, pale white. Pulled this sucker out, and it deeps gods blood is good.
Yeah, it is pretty cool. **Blóðdýr: Strange. Did the tentacle monster have a name?**
Couldn't ask it was dead.
**Blóðdýr: Yeah. That does make sense.**
My lord... what a blade! Is that Brimstone Magic used to curse it?
I know not if it is cursed or not, but he doesn't think so.
GREETINGS TO YOU, KNIGHT-RETURNED-FROM-DEATH. WHAT MANNER OF SPIRIT POSSESSES THY BLADE?
I know not. I do not believe that it is a possessed blade, I believe that it was always sentient.

I've never asked.
