Derneir Ventcour - title
              Submitted by Michael Cruea

    Description : The Derneir Ventcour seems to be a regular broadsword except for the green-red blade and very fine craftsmanship. Indeed the material used in the construction of this blade is known as Shaladan, a rare type of metal found in the mountains of the northern regions.
    Shaladan is a green and red metal, often used in fine swords. Weapons forged from this metal add + 3 steps to the weapons damage step, and + 2 to wielder’s spell defense, these weapons are however very likely to rust even when treated well, immersion in water requires the wielder to oil the sword for at least several hours unless he wants the blade to lose the "magic" bonuses. Shaladan blades suffer a minus 5 point penalty when targeted by the Rust spell.
