History

The Sword of the Abyss was a black steel weapon forged on Earth prior to the Fall of Earth, and allegedly brought to Sanctuary before the beginning of the War of Secession. It was, originally, a sword without any established history. In 2051 CE, it was used by an unknown assassin to kill several members of the former governing council, before it disappeared. It eventually reappeared, in 2083 CE, to kill the one of the founders of the Initiative, when they was on their deathbed. It once again disappeared from sight, and is believed to have been hidden somewhere in the mountains near Central Control. Alternatively, it is believed that the sword may be in the hands of the Cult of the Abyss, a religious anarchistic movement that sprang up around the wielder or wielders of this blade.
