The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
SWORDS! We all use them. Some better than others. What's your favorite sword? My favorite sword to use is "dong" as in, "Kevin Bacon kills a man with dong in Wild Things!"
It's short (unlike Kevin Bacon's dong) and gets right to the point. No time wasted with dong, no siree. And if you have an autocorrect mistake it usually turns into ding which can also be hilarious.
"Kevin Bacon kills a man with ding in Wild Things"
Or
You can combine THEM!!
"Kevin Bacon kills a man with DING DONG in Wild Things"
It can even be a sound effect!
"When Kevin Bacon kills a man with dong in Wild Things his dong went DONG!"
Asi would also be a good pick though. In Hindu mythology it is both the first weapon and the very essence of weapon from which all others draw the ability to be a weapon. Without Asi a sword could not cut, a mace could not crush, a bullet could not pierce, for that would make them weapons and without Asi that is not possible.
Shardblades would be nice too, from the Stormlight Archives by Brandon Sanderson. Those have the unique property of being able to cut through anything that's not Shardplate or another Shardblade, which has resulted in their sword styles being all about wide sweeps because there's no need to have momentum behind the blade when it's going to cut through everything in its way regardless.
Oh, and it can't cut living material either technically. But anything living that's cut by a Shardblade is killed and its eyes burnt out. Then the corpse can be cut because it's not alive anymore.

I'm partial to falchions but a good sabre'll do just fine.

I like serendipitous. It’s an s word with good mouth feel.

Perhaps we are not ready for this power, as a species.
