Fantasy Weapon of the Week.

A dark fantasy style short sword lying on a cracked stone floor. The dark, broad blade is imbued with glowing red runes that run down the centre. The hilt is fashioned with a guard in the form of a skull with bat wings that fan out on either side, a leather grip, and an ornate pommel. A caption at the base of the image reads 'Forged in silence. Tempered in blood. Wielded only by the damned'.

Bestow your eyes upon my fantasy weapon of the week. One of a series of concept art images from my collection of cursed weapons forged by a dark lord. This is the first in the series; a short sword that thirsts for souls. It whispers to the blood-thirsty warrior. But beware… those who wield it are destined to be damned.

What would you name this weapon?
