TheDarkswordTrilogy | |
| The Darksword Trilogy | comment |
A trilogy by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman consisting of Forging the Darksword, Doom of the Darksword, Triumph of the Darksword, and Legacy of the Darksword. Also has an associated Tabletop RPG, Darksword Adventures, and a (now hard to find) companion book, called The Darksword Companion.In the magical land of Thimhallan, Magic is considered to be the same as Life. Those born with no magic are considered Dead. As an ancient prophecy tells of the destruction of the world by one who is Dead, those born without magic are routinely killed. However, royal-born protaganist Joram manages to escape this fate. Joining with a group of unlikely allies such as the elderly scholar Saryon and the erratic trickster Simkin, he plans to forge the magic-consuming Darksword and retake his royal position, unaware that doing so may bring the prophecy to fruition. | |

Death of a Child: The Deathwatch and ensuing murder of all children born Dead. Saryon is understandably traumatized when he has to participate in such rituals, where a parent's child is killed ten days after they're born just because they, the child, are different. | |

Our Giants Are Bigger | |
| The Darksword Trilogy / int_dd963bd3 | comment |
Our Giants Are Bigger: These giants are roughly double the size of a man and as are usually friendly, peaceable and kind of dull. | |

The Fool: Simkin is strongly associated with this archetype, being symbolized by the "Fool" tarok card while Joram is represented by the "King of Swords". | |

Classical Chimera | |
| The Darksword Trilogy / int_e87aed53 | comment |
Classical Chimera: Chimeras are one of Thimhallen's Warchanged creatures, animals created or altered during their civil war as living weapons that escaped their creators' control. Darksword Adventures details the creature more thoroughly. It has the forequarters of a lion, the hindquarters of a goat, the tail of a viper, and three heads (lion, goat, viper) each possessing a poisonous bite. It was created to be the ultimate sentry, capable of spotting an approaching enemy from multiple directions and combining the ferocity of all its component creatures. Unfortunately, its three heads operate independently of one another, meaning a consensus must be reached for its body to do something. While not a problem when facing a single opponent, multiple opponents can confuse the creature and cause it to wildly attack any target close by. | |
