Lore fact/Trivia:
Simone’s Rapier called: ‘Le Punisseur’ which means in English: The Punisher. She punishes evil people, murderers, mages and bandits, etc. She even takes revenge for those who couldn’t take revenge themselves.
I made a sketch of Simone’s rapier, I think I messed it a little bit so I found an image of a rapier sword. 😊😊. Pics aren’t mine! I found them on pinterest.

Origionally Curirassier swords followed the 1788 pattern heavy sword for the French Army. They gained iconic status when issued by Napoleon in 1803 to the heavy cavalry. Attempts to replace it in 1822 were resisted by the cavalry as the new model was too light for their purposes. In 1854, as part of Napoleon III’s rejuvenation of the French start, the sword was reissued. The M1854 is intended to be a continuation of the ANXIII. However its designers didn’t attempt to reproduce, everything was refreshed.
The double fullered blade has a beautiful light patina with light pitting near the hilt. There is a slight bend at the tip, but the blade is otherwise in excellent condition. The handle is tight with no movement. The brass guard and handle are in excellent condition with most of the copper grip wire remaining. The markings on the handle date it to 1854, making it one of the earliest issues of this sword.
