Captain's Command

Description

The sentinels of Urizen and the cataphracts of Highguard alike appreciate the tactical versatility granted by these powerful weapons. Whether sweeping a foe's legs out from under them, or driving an enemy back with a mighty blow and an intimidating shout, the Captain's Command offers a greatly enhanced range of options.

The Freeborn often call these weapons Tempest Blades because the kohan who wield them use them to devastating effect when moving quickly through the massed ranks of opponents, spreading confusion and scattering their enemies in disarray like powerful winds.

"Mystery only exists when someone is interested," were her final words on the subject.
