History[]
Holtz Tellerman, a mage of the Amber College, was part of a company of troops under the Count of Middenheim who ambushed and destroyed a warband that had been systematically laying waste to a series of hamlets in the east of the province. Tellerman noted in his journal that the leader of the warband carried a sword tipped with runes and arcane symbols which radiated a mind-numbing menace and which sapped his magical power even after its wielder was killed. None of the foresters complained of a similar feeling and so Tellerman theorized that the weapon solely targeted those who tapped the world's magical energies. Before he disappeared he noted in his journal that he sent back to his college for aid in destroying the weapon, though there is no mention of such, or indeed any further mention of Holtz Tellerman, in the College records...[1a]
