Epic Bards Rapier

I originally designed this sword to start to burn at the tip when moved quickly, as well generating a whip like tail that would lash out on an enemy.
I also tried to capture the elegance and sophistication of a mythical Japanese sword, and wrap it in european design sensibilities.

I also felt that Bards didn't always get priority in terms of creative treatments when it came to cool items as compared to warriors for example, so I tried to come up with something special for those who play bards in EQ.
