Note: All assets of this mod were created from scratch by me, nothing was converted from other games.






A long time ago, on a forgotten kingdom, ruled by the Great King Eerikki, existed a company of powerful warriors, the Drake Knights.

Strong and unnaturaly tall, those fierce knights gained their fame for being dragon riders.

If a soldier on the opposite of the battle saw the field turn dark because of a huge shadow, he would know that the heralds of destruction have arrived, and there was nothing they could do, the Drake Knights would scorch the land and any enemy in sight.

Even though being part of the Knights arsenal, the Drake Knight Greatsword was uncommon among them, the knights usually prefered their long spears to ride their dragons. They used to wield the greatsword when fighting on foot, using its size to take multiples enemies out at once. 

The weapon was also commonly enchanted with shock, if a dragon choose to turn against them, the shock magic would help to tear the dragon's scales apart.





This weapon features a Dark Souls upgrading style, see the materials below.

Note: This weapon can't be tempered, all upgrading is made on Anvils and Blacksmith Forges.

Upgrade to +1 consumes: 1 Drake Knight Greatsword3 Silver Ingots and 1 Petty Soul Gem(Filled)

Upgrade to +2 consumes: 1 Drake Knight Greatsword +15 Silver Ingots and 1 Lesser Soul Gem (Filled)

Upgrade to + 3 consumes: 1 Drake Knight Greatsword +23 Quicksilver Ingots and 1 Common Soul Gem (Filled)

Upgrade to +4 consumes: 1 Drake Knight Greatsword +35 Quicksilver Ingots and 1 Greater Soul Gem (Filled)

Upgrade to +5 consumes: 1 Drake Knight Greatsword +41 Centurion Dynamo Core and 1 Grand Soul Gem (Filled)


The blade is also enchanted with a slightly modified Shock FX just to match the Dark Souls FX better.
The enchantment also gets stronger as the blade progresses, see below:

Drake Knight Greatsword +0 = 15 shock damage
Drake Knight Greatsword +1 = 20 shock damage
Drake Knight Greatsword +2 = 25 shock damage
Drake Knight Greatsword +3 = 30 shock damage
Drake Knight Greatsword +4 = 35 shock damage
Drake Knight Greatsword +5 = 50 shock damage

The Enchantment consumption is also very low, to be more like a permanent enchantment just as Dark Souls
.




The weapon can be found inside the shipwreck at Orphan's Tear, take a look:



For those who have played Dark Souls, when you enter the shipwreck you will spot the item at first glance.

BUT

If you didn't play it, take a look at this spoiler to see it:
