New sword commission!
This one for @saltzman.bsky.social ! The request was for a sword that was extremely long, curved, and otherworldly. The starting point was an odachi, but the final design has more in common with a Dacian falx, which is awesome.
Want a fantasy sword? They are $50!

He had been initially skeptical about that newly discovered collection of proported Dacian literature. But after unwittingly reciting an incantation and triggering some ancient magic, took the books' authenticity much more seriously.

Cambridge, England has the retired academics. They wear tweed suits in any weather, know everything about Dacian pottery techniques of the 3rd century CE, get around on an ancient and heavy bicycle, and have taken up a hobby like making giant steel sculptures or raising venomous snakes.

Hear me out.
Nosferatu bad, naughty, evil, yes.
But... he spoke Dacian, this suggests he came from the same region as the Helmet of Coțofenești which was recently stolen in a Dutch museum...
How about we bring Nosferatu back to life and introduce him to the thieves...

- gaming pieces of ceramic, glass, stone
- bone dice, including elongated variety.

Terrible. The golden Geto-Dacian helmet from Poiana Coţofeneşti is among those pieces stolen from #DrentsMuseum in the Netherlands. 😔
Horrific news out of Assen, Netherlands. Thieves used explosives to access the Drents Museum and made off with several antiquities from ‘Dacia – Empire of Gold and Silver’, including the masterpiece the golden Helmet of Coțofenești, c. 450 BCE, a loan from the National History Museum of Romania. 🏺 😡

These evocative Roman statues portray Dacian prisoners from Trajan’s conquests. They show fierce, bold, but melancholy men, contemplating perhaps the mutability of fortune.
