Thornblade
The swords made from thorny stems are drawn only when it’s time to protect their family against enemies.
Their swords, covered in prismana, can never be broken, no matter how hard they are struck.
These cold-blooded assassins hone their skills on rainy nights, their eyes as sharp as lightning. Once they fix their gaze on their prey, there's no escape.
With an unshakable heart, it has become a true knight in its own right. Thornblade will honor its vow to protect and drive away every intruder.
