Malunar Rapier (Cid's)

item destroyed

Current state

The Malunar Rapier (Cid's) is Cid's signature +1 rapier, a finely crafted blade associated with him from early in the campaign. In S3 it earned the joking nickname 'the cursed sword' after a streak of bad rolls, though it also proved its worth when Cid used it to crit and grapple the corpse lights in the chapel. By S9 his original Malunar rapier had been lost or damaged, so the Otari blacksmith forged a cold-iron replacement: a near 1:1 replica described as slightly longer, a fine weapon in its own right. In that same session Cid threw the blade slashing to behead the blood siphon, demonstrating its utility both in hand and as a projectile [S9, 00:20:30]. In S32 the cold-iron Malunar Rapier met its end: Cid scored a critical strike against the entity described as the 'foul cancer,' and the contact destroyed the blade entirely, leaving only a hilt with ruined runes that were further wrecked by the session's close [S32, 00:31:51]. That session also established the rapier as distinct from Cid's still-functional Rose Sargentes sword, two separate weapons he carried. As of S35, the Malunar Rapier reappears in a new context: it is identified as one of four relics required for the Otari door, carried by Cid, and noted to have once been wielded by a woman — described in-session as a 'pink rapier' [S35, 00:34:54]. A joke about Cid being 'about to lose the Rapier' points to ongoing tension around the weapon's status. Whether this is the destroyed original, the cold-iron replica's remnant hilt, or a related relic remains unresolved as of S35.

  • S3 Cid's signature rapier; a +1 rapier was also found on the chapel thief corpse and the rune can be transferred to it in town. Jokingly dubbed 'the cursed sword' after a streak of bad rolls. Used to crit and grapple the corpse lights. [S3 · 02:14:51 · turn 1017]
  • S9 A cold-iron rapier forged for Cid by the Otari blacksmith as a near 1:1 replica of his original Malunar rapier (a fine weapon, slightly longer). Used both in melee and, crucially, thrown (slashing) to behead the blood siphon. [S9 · 00:20:23 · turn 0191]
  • S32 Cid's magic sword, destroyed ('gonzo') by contact with the foul cancer when he crit-struck it. Only the hilt with ruined runes remains; further destroyed by session end. Distinct from his still-functional Rose Sargentes. [S32 · 00:31:29 · turn 0247]
  • S35 One of the four relics for the Otari door, carried by Cid; noted to have been wielded by a woman (a 'pink rapier'). Jokingly 'about to lose the Rapier.' [S35 · 00:34:51 · turn 0217]
