Abysm - The Omega Sword
🕑 Added 2024-12-10 05:00:40 +0000 UTC"legend speaks of a weapon buried deep within the Abyss: a sword of the gods, able to tame the horrors of the maze. The dead corpses of previous summoned blades litter the landscape as markers of the fallen mazeknights. The weapon is eternal, and in the right hands may find the end of the infinte Labyrinth, but at a cost. The knight of Omega must forfeit their soul to the Abyss in exchange for its power, and thus its wielder will return one day to the Abyss, without fail. it is their inescapable fate."
A proper rendering of lore Matilda + the Omega Sword. The weapon has been around for a while in matilda's design but never been really explained or depicted properly until now. The weapon is an Abyssal Artifact, a boon of the maze, guarded by untold horrors and leviathans just like any other artifact. However, the sword itself is special specifically as it's utility is a requirement to solve the maze, and over untold eons, many have tried to wield the weapon but failed, leaving empty dead husks of the weapon in the landscape at the point of felling and its knights obliterated. All witnesses of a mazeknight dying in battle are wiped of their memory of the encounter to ensure that the sword is truly rediscovered in an unbiased manner, as part of the mazes solution requirement. Only Juno has recollection of the sword as Cartographers have perfect photographic memory, and has been searching for a mazeknight capable of surviving long enough to solve the Abyss in her company.
The weapon can be summoned via small sacrifice, usually a small cut on the user's hand/body. The weapon is then usable in battle at a grievous price of slowly siphoning the soul of its user with every attack to the Abyss. It can also be summoned in many sizes, ranging from a standard sword to a gargantuan stone tower hundreds of feet in size. Its wielder takes control of it using an ability called Echo-Sync, an special ability usable by artifact users of the Abyss which gathers the wielder's collective strength over spans of time to use in the moment.
The sword also communicates with only Matilda, as if it also has a soul of its own.
Got a ton of practice with this, as its part of the production artwork I'm making to eventually correspond with the Abysm Project. I feel it meets my standards after 5 years of developing this character.
