First Blade of the Rising Sun
 
First Blade of the Rising Sun
<br />Stolen from the abyssal who orchestrated Thelaos's downfall.  The slender Daiklave is as beautiful as the rising sun, and as awe-inspiring as those Exalted who share the morning's name. The blade is forged from enchanted glass, suffused with random arcs of sunlight, and edged in orichalcum. Orichalcum filigree also dances upon the blade and in the light of the morning this filigree forms the sword's name in Old Realm upon it.

<br />When struck by this weapon, Thelaos's opponents are delivered a fraction of the might of the Unconquered Son.  Each hit causes a cumulative -1 internal penalty on all actions, up to a maximum of -4.  This manifests as physical weakness or trembling from the sheer force of the weapon's power.  The effect lasts until the end of the scene.

Fire Dragon's Scale
 
Fire Dragon's Scale
<br />This wedge-shaped piece of cat’s eye protects its bearer with heat drawn from the Elemental Pole of Fire.  The stone channels this heat into any melee weapon that strikes the bearer. Metal weapons instantly become red hot and wooden weapons catch fire. The player of the weapon’s wielder must succeed at a Willpower roll, difficulty 3, or the wielder drops the weapon. Even if this roll succeeds, however, the attacker suffers environmental damage from holding onto the burning or heated weapon (1L/action damage, trauma 1). Fire-aspected Terrestrial Exalted who have ignited their animas are immune to the effects of this hearthstone.

Niasios came as close as anyone ever had to uniting the Hundred Kingdoms five hundred years ago, successfully heading a coalition of leaders bent on conquering the region.  His intentions began with the greater good, but degraded into entitlement and hubris as he made concessions to other kings and warlike spirits in order to secure one victory after another.  He was exalted by the Unconquered Son at the height of his power, sealing his fate.  He was able to wage three more decisive and spectacularly bloody battles as one of the "forsaken," but the Wyld Hunt joined his enemies during the last of them.  Niasios was destroyed and his allies crushed.
