Sword of Kings 5e
The King Serves the Land. The Sword Serves the King!
The Sword of Kings is an ancient runic weapon that is much more than magical – it is the rune that fully encapsulates the enigmatic concept of rulership, smelted down through means beyond mortal ken, alloyed with silver and iron both, and turned into a symbol of royalty as much as a weapon for defeating foes.
Known by many names the Sword of Kings grows with its owner, offering new attunement powers at each character level, themed to make its wielder a leader and ruler. It can be a major MacGuffin a GM can use like an artifact to drive a game (but without as much unbalancing impact on encounters as even minor artifacts tend to have), or just a kings-and-rulers themed magic item a character can have grow with them throughout their adventuring career.
Whether you want to add some epic royal destiny to a game without tacking on an entire set of nation-building rules, are looking for a major reward to help characters who are in a king-making campaign, or just want to hand out a magic item that will grow to be part of a character’s legend, the Sword of Kings is ready to become part of the myths and stories of your campaign world!
