Forged in the fires of Bessi blacksmiths since at least 350 BC, the rhomphaia has become the iconic killing machine associated with ancient Thracian warfare. It consisted of a long iron blade – acutely-curved and finely-balanced.

Here's a redesign of Penny! This version of her is designed to be a battle smith in DnD 5ed (Gm allowed for carpentry tools instead of smiths tools). In her older one her boat is too big haha.

The biggest spirit there is Ulko, one of my characters who died in the campaign haha.
