Effects[]

Pointing the sword at a target shreds their clothing off, leaving them completely naked. For every five people the user affects, they lose one piece of their clothing until they are naked themselves.

Collection[]

Discovered and collected from Kalamazoo, Missouri in 1998 after a teenager who stole the sword from a nearby college fraternity discovered its properties. The teen ran around, picking random targets around town to strip naked with the sword. By the time Artie arrived, the teen was almost completely naked himself, and seemed to be unaware that it was occurring.

Trivia[]

  • The exact circumstances surrounding this artifact's creation is not quite clear. However, Artie believes that, based on its usage before the teen stole it, the artifact was passed from college fraternity to college fraternity, and that it was used as a tradition at one of these fraternities. Being a part of that tradition for a long time, the sword absorbed the tradition of the fraternity.
