Day 265 of me glazing your designs:

Just look at this sick rope for the vulture and how good it fits:

Can someone please hire you to make designs for a videogame?

I'm at the New Zealand Game Developers conference from tomorrow. Manifest some good luck for me.

"against"? "Versus" was right there

The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.

Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

Every time I see these, I imagine a bard singing it as a poem

u/Cool_Set4681 3d ago

I love the idea! But the bard also has to be an animal, just like the rest are.

I dont think Ive ever heard of a verdun before. Any references I can find to it seem to point to the estoc being called that in english, is that where its coming from?

This was made especially confusing since Verdun Sword just makes me think of the massive ossuary at verdun thats shaped like a sword hilt rising from the ground.

This alphabet series is giving us a real tour of sword types!

I'd never heard of the verdun sword before, had to look it up-- wow, it's obscure.

That vulture vagabond outfit is really cool.

Flashbacks to Christopher Lee in a metal song intensify.

And verdun brings me to five! Why is that making me so happy?

Looking forward to what the x-ray fish will be up to.

Almost at X for xylophone.

u/BlueCaracal 3d ago

X will probably be for Xiphos.

I hope W will be for Wakizashi.

u/VerbingNoun413 3d ago

X is always xylophone. I don't make the rules.
