Worked on a halo inspired build in daemon x machina based on the og spartan twos, Halo 2 Master Chief and the Hrunting from Halo Legends

So, Beowulf is probably among the oldest pieces of media I've ever done a conversion for, eh? I'd wager that Christianity ekes it out by just a smidge.

Hrunting

Melee Weapon, Longsword, Artifact

(Requires Attunement)

A rare and ancient sword named Hrunting.

The iron blade with its ill-boding patterns

had been tempered in blood.

Damage: 1d8 (1d10)

Damage Type: Slashing

Modifiers: Attacks +3, Damage +3

Properties: Versatile, Finesse

Unfailing Blade: While attuned to Hrunting, you have advantage on attacks against beasts, monstrosities, fiends, and dragons. Additionally, you learn the Hunter’s Mark spell, and may cast it at will.

Unferth’s Gift: This weapon is cursed by the failure of one who wielded it in times long past. When you attune to this weapon, you are reluctant to surrender it, and cannot unattune from it willingly. While you are attuned to this sword, if you enter hallowed ground or a place of worship, you develop a severe headache, and take 1d4 psychic damage each round.

For the First Time: This weapon loses its magical abilities in the presence of descendants of the first murderer. While using this blade against someone with such lineage, the weapon is treated as a mundane longsword. If you are reduced to 0 Hit Points by a creature with such lineage, the sword shatters and your attunement to it ends.

Today I learned there's a breed of owl just called "little owl". And it's not even the smallest owl there is! Do you know any other animals that are poorly named?

there are so many poorly-thought-out-animals out there that you could fill an entire encyclopedia series with them, frankly

hrunting replied to your post: I wish I could vote again so I could scream “FOR...

(But maybe don’t because someone might mistake that for campaigning outside a polling place which is illegal)

Oh, right...

Maybe like...stand further away.

Emma’s sword is called “Hrunting” and as a fan of Beowulf and someone who once wrote an essay in 12th grade on the parallels between Beowulf and Aragorn and with their swords, this makes me very very happy.

If Nægling wasn’t used as a sword name behind the scenes, I’ll be a bit disappointed.

Does witch!Bucky ever find a coven, or is he solo mostly?

a little of both! he stays solo, but accidentally adopts baby witches on the internet and accidentally ends up leading an international coven of witches who don’t want to join their local/nearest coven, or don’t have a coven nearby

so, picture this:

bucky’s on the couch, hair piled high, still faintly smelling like the tea he’d been brewing earlier. the house smells of herbs, mostly the lemon balm in the tea, and bucky’s feet are in steve’s lap. he’s on his tablet, gesticulating wildly as he explains something finicky in a ward that one of his witchlings has asked, and steve has to reach over every so often to save his tablet from a flying hand.

steve’s playing with the hem of bucky’s sock while he reads off his nook, and when bucky looks up to give him a dopey little smile steve can hear the witches in the group chat start up their oh my god is steve there can we say hi to steve let us say hi to steve, bucky c’mon don’t be a spoilsport

and bucky laughs, calls them all suck-ups, but turns the tablet so steve can wave at the tiny screen, witchlings all overreacting at the fact that steve’s there, and he can’t help but smile at bucky because it’s sickeningly fucking domestic but he’s so damned in love
