The Corruption of Ashbringer

[Fallacy]

So, we'll finally be able to find the legendary sword Ashbringer in Naxxramas, however, it is not in the way we expected it to be. Apparently, it has been influenced by the spirit of Highlord Morgraine, the father of the Scarlet Commander you fight in Scarlet Monastery, along with Whitemane.

What the corrupted Ashbringer looks like:

It also makes these sounds only the wielder can hear:

That is cool as hell

Translation

I was pure once
Fought for righteousness
I was called the Ashbringer
Betrayed by my order
Destroyed by Kel'Thuzad
Made to serve
My son watched me die
Crusades fed his rage
Truth is unknown
Truth is *Blank*
scarlet crusade is pure no longer
Balnazzars crusade corrupted my son

KILL THEM ALL

((Oh man, listend to the sound file... had to put it off halfway, it was creeping me out. It's 2am here and the entire apartment is in darkness.

I WANT THAT SWORD!

So much RP potential...

))

[Tyrsza]

That is creepy as hell.


AWESOME!!

What Im guessing happened is Ashbringer was the head of the scarlet crusade, Balnazzar started corrupting the rest of the crusade and secretly turning them against Ashbringer, an attack was led against the scourge (im going to presume they meant to attack Kel'Thuzad instead of Kel'Thuzad going to the defense of X spot) but then the rest of his group abandoned him and let him die (where he says his son watched him die), Balnazzar assumed control of the scarlet crusade and kel'thuzad did whatever he did to ashbringers soul, bringing us essentially to where we are now...thats all speculation though based on what is said. Does anyone know anything to confirm/deny any of this?

[Karkarov]

I dont know I see ashbringer in the model viewer and it doesnt look like that. Also it is two handed.... and I think it looks wussy. I will take a Ashkandi any day :).

That said the corrupted version looks much better though. We will have to see to tell.

If it's a two-hander, I'm rerolling. :P

WTGA (wanting to give away ;p) Lilicor.

Mortica cant re roll now though it is too late! But I seriously think it is a two hander.

Awww... c'mon! Who wants this thing spouting doom and gloom all the time? (No need to reply, Abric, it's a rhetorical question.)

I'd much rather have a less-than-intelligent sword that talks.

[Rhowen-Prea]

Tooooo awesome. Purple or Orange?

[LordDestructo]

I need that for my current Brardith story >.>
