A Claidheamohmore, in Gaelic meaning "Great Sword". The favourable sword used by the
Highlanders. In its classic form, the Claymore is a large two-handed broadsword of beautiful slender
design. The highlandeclan however saught to find a more agile sword of smaller fashion that could be
used by the clansmen aswell in battle as in official matters like when presenting the word of the clan
before the court of silent King Waldur. The clan found the old celtic sword that had been used in the
glorius battles in ancient times, to be a splendid model. This combined with the brutal fashion of the
original claymore would make the highlander sword a dangerous enemy for the foes and a trustworthy
friend for the clan. The years of training in metalworking, that has made the cletic smiths among the
most honored in the world, made it possible to shape this sword into a weapon of multiuse. With the
inspiration from honorable king Arthur's Excalibur the highlander mages joined forces with the power
of the old shiny folk, the faerie folk to grant magic powers to the sword.
In the hilt of the sword was the holy highlander cross inscribed to bless its way to the target. Along the
blade the letters g.l.o.r.y and
f.r.e.e.d.o.m were engraved in gold, powerful fairy magicks:
'Granteth Layf, Organaysd Reseestanse, Yez, Fayght Relentl's Eech Enemeey, Deth O' Maehem'.
Thus the sword was dipped into the holy waters in the lands of the shining folk, the same waters as the
great Excalibur now rests.
The Claidheamohmore started to glow with magic force, and the powerful highlander sword was
produced.
