Mesmerizing Mirage
This sword was originally developed to be used for entertainment purposes, specifically theater and circus. The idea is to create a prop sword that can be used by regular performers to conjure several different visual effects at wills such as changing shape, pretending it goes through someone’s body, engulfing itself with fire or other magical effects, creating sparks as if it’s actually hitting something, and even producing appropriate...

Almighty Atlas
Found in the tomb of the primordial giant referred to as The One-Eyed Tyrant, this 12 meters long stone sword is too big even for a regular Giants. From what the archeologist can gather, the sword was made by the primordial giant himself as his regalia. According to the relief on the tomb’s wall, The One-Eyed Tyrant carves out an entire mountain range and condensed it into a singular slab of stone which then he shapes into this sword. On the ...

Agonizing Altar
This series of 8 swords were created by the ‘Defiled Seraph’, an abomination accidentally created through a ritual using a stolen consecrated flesh of a celestial guardian performed by a cult who called themselves ‘The Children of One’. The failed ritual gave birth to an incomplete deity that end up integrating all of the cult members into its body. After that, using the broken pieces of the altar they used to create it, the creature c...

Sapphire Stream
This experimental weapon was created by an Elementalist from Ariasfell branch by binding a water elemental and using it to produce a continuous stream of water that moves so fast it creates a razor-sharp blade. Combining the elemental power and multiple enchantments to increase the speed of the water stream further, the water blade this weapon produce is capable of cutting steel like a knife through butter. It was meant to imitate the Arnaluk ...

Cruel Crimson
Another absurd creation of the Director of The Archive. Created using the same liquid energy converter engine as the ‘Incendiary Impact’, this giant saw he called ‘sword’ can spin its adamantine blades to around 2000 revolutions per minute with incredible force. It was tested and proven to be able to tear dragon scale and flesh into pieces and grind diamonds to dust quite easily. The problem is, It is too big to be used by most people, v...

Archaic Arcanist
This sword is one of the most significant discoveries of the millennia. Found accidentally after a massive earthquake opened up a giant fissure in the southern part of The White spine mountain range, this sword is the oldest man-made arcane-based magical weapon ever recorded, predating any known records and stories. It was found with several tools and similarly shaped materials, indicating that the cave was maybe some kind of workshop. The ar...

Atrocious Angler
Weapon (shortsword and whip), rare (requires attunement)
Atrocious Angler is a tricky ‘sword.’ In fact, it might be more accurate to call it a whip rather than a sword because the ‘sword’ itself is just a decoy. This weapon is made of two unique materials with their own separate enchantment. The blade is made of a particular organ from a deep-sea creature from Oumia Archipelago that can emit a bioluminescence glow in a ...

Temporal Tribute
Found in a ruin underneath the Azalia Desert, This large sword with a hour glass-like apparatus in the middle of the blade has been sealed inside the Enlightened Hall since it was found. It’s categorized as a dangerous artifact because of its special ability. The sword has the ability to manipulate the flow of time thanks to fragments of Arsqualia that was found embedded on it. It can steal someone’s ‘time’, aging them by years and slowing the flow of...

Hysterical Hydra
This two-handed sword was forged from several different enchanted weapons that were found lodged inside an Ancient Hydra body. The group who slain the hydra harvested those broken weapons that seem to have been left there by the previous challengers of the Hydra for hundred of years. After being soaked with the extremely deadly poisonous blood of the hydra for centuries, they seem to absorb the blood and become cursed. The group sold the salv...

Ephemeral Epilogue
They’re a set of 8 swords made of pure platinum, gold, and blessed glass. Ephemeral Epilogues were made right after the end of the Chaos Insurgency, a war between the last remaining celestials and their follower versus the Children of One and the entity from the outer realm that tried to enter this realm. Even though each of those swords were blessed by heroes who fought on that war, the swords were made not as a weapon but rather as a me...

It’s a giant sword made of a fragment of a Frost Behemoth tail bone. The creature is a species of aberrant elementals who live in the far north region of the Grinding Sea. The sword was made by utilizing the elemental’s unique regenerative ability as a weapon. When the blade made of the bone touch any water, including snow and ice, it’ll absorb them, freezing and shaping it into the gigantic tail with jagged razor-like spikes. It belon...

Despite being made of solid material, the blade is light and flexible like a feather and can’t actually cause any harm to any physical object. Instead, If a creature got slashed or pierced by it, their mind will immediately be invaded by a comedic illusion based on the target sense of humor. Each time the blade touches the creature, it...

Originally called Iron vines, it is a species of plant endemic to the West Olkatia Mountain It lives in the soil that contains a large amount of iron and mithril. It bizarrely prefers to attach itself to those materials and use its saps to dissolve those metals before absorbing them as sustenance. A druid from Zhamery clan uses selective breeding and magic in order to weaponize it. Although typically it’s used to sabotage enemy army by leaving ...

Greedy Gladius
Forged from various valuable treasures found in the hoard of an ancient red dragon after it was slain by Izhak Sola Alkhazalia II, the 10th Emperor of The Azalis Empire. Rumor said that during the creation of this sword, the blacksmith was afflicted and influenced by a curse that was unexpectedly hidden within the materials. As the result, they created a sword imbued with the unsatisfiable greed of the ancient dragon but also one that requires ...

Anyway, I hope you like it, and let me know what you think :D

Along with it, they also discovered a partial ruin of an ancient city from The Grand Empire era and a dimensional rift deep insi...

Hi everyone~
Finally, I'm working on the Abyss prompt!
Well, when I get this prompt, the main idea that I want to try is to make a dark page (Not edgy dark, but actually dark) and use white lineart to draw most of the creature. That's still very much the plan here. I'm considering adding a humanoid with diving apparatus and magical shield that will illuminate some part of the creature and also as a size comparison.
But as usual, I'm kinda stuck on what to choose from these a...

Hi, Thank you so much for The Archivists and Curators that suggested these prompt.
For this month, these prompt will probably gonna be used to make items for this month, since if nothing goes wrong, next month I'm going to attempt to do Swordtember again. Although I'm not yet sure whether the original artist that create the event is going to make a prompt list again this year. If not, then we'll have to make our own list~!

A magical device developed by The Archive and usually issued to their field agents and researchers as an emergency first aid kit. Although the original design includes the ability to cast a spell that can revive someone from death before the soul completely leaves their body, due to its expensive production cost and difficult production method, The Archive eventually produces several inferior versions of the device that c...

Although the bag and the beans inside it aren’t exactly cursed and won’t cause any immediate harm to the owner and people around them. The power and random nature of the bean’s magical effect can unintentionally cause more damage than what the user intended. The original bag is currently in the posse...

The Serpentine Sentinel is armor crafted from an adult green hydra body. A complex process was done when the material from the hydra body was harvested. This process, which includes some element of enchantment and necromancy magic, is done to make sure the materials absorb some of the Hydra essences and innate power. As the result, it gives anyone who wears the armor the ability to conjure three arcane-powered serp...

This is more like an announcement and a bit of self-promotion I guess.
As some of you might already know, one of my main day jobs is actually working as a comic artist for a monthly comic magazine (Re:ON Comic) since 2018, in that magazine, I make a comic titled 'Knight of Rakshasa'. Originally, it was published there in the Indonesian language and in conventional comic format, but recently, an online comic platform purchased the license to translate ...

This one is somehow more difficult than the others. I'm not sure whether it's because the recent hectic schedule, or because I somewhat fixated on these few ideas in my mind.
The strongest one that keeps popping up in my head would be the rabbit-folks, a centaur-like race with half-human and half rabbit. With puffy hair and tails and wielding a hammer as their signature weapon (kinda referring to the folklore about the rabbit that makes mochi on the moon from Japanese folklore and the t...
