The Forgotten Falchion

One of the 100 Swords of Sepathok, the Forgotten Falchion is the sword of which the least is known. While many stories have been created to explain its disappearance from memory, perhaps the most believable is that it was a blade of such dark power that it had to be enchanted to be eternally forgotten, to the point where a man wielding it would often attempt to pick up a sword from the body of a fallen enemy combatant while still holding the Falchion, having already entirely forgotten drawing (or, indeed, owning) the blade. In fact, the most common cause of death for the wielders of the Forgotten Falchion is by self-mutilation through attempting to scratch an itch whilst holding it.

Any individual explanations of the history or fate of the Forgotten Falchion are unfortunately out of continuity by definition as remembrances of the Forgotten Falchion.

Sepathok maintains that he never owned the falchion at all. This is to be expected, but not believed.
