"Master, you have promised that I will receive the weapon upon completion of my training. I've heard the legends, and know that the sage chroniclers report mixed reviews on it's power when wielded by a man such as myself - but this concerns me not! O' wizened mentor, we both know that it is now time for your protégé to receive...THE ULTIMATE SWORD OF WANTON DESTRUCTION!"
Your master hands you:

Colouring/Coloring Ball Competition ends on Friday, January 24th. And yes, there will be trophies (admittedly a bit bland) you trophy vultures!
Glowing Gold Sword: (http://imageshack.com/a/img404/3349/trnf.png) Sturdy Silver Sword: (http://imageshack.com/a/img855/4200/15ym.png) Rotted, Pitted Wooden Sword: (http://imageshack.com/a/img21/5525/rlmp.png)
Your Master hands you a sword with a wizard trapped inside, imprisoned by arcane glyphs. The wizard is not all that happy about being trapped in the blade, thus the mixed reviews on its functionality.

PIZZZZZZZZZZZAAA in the morning, pizza in the evening, pizza at suppertime. When pizza's on a dagger, you can eat pizza anytime!
“Ah… yes… about that… Unfortunately THE ULTIMATE SWORD OF WANTON DESTRUCTIONâ,,¢ was taken by Sir Dennis of SpiritOcean upon his graduation.â€
“Well, what about the fearsome blade DOOMSTICK?â€
“Alas, that too has gone, given to Sir Ray Partenaire-de-vie! But fear not my young apprentice, I have procured for you no lesser foil than the ZOOMSTICKâ,,¢!

Forged by Master Smith Maid-de-Lyons its icy bite is renowned throughout the lands as a thing of beauty and power. Plus it gives you something like +20 ice damage and a cold blast spell on a throw of 12 - pretty sweet huh?
Use it well young apprentice, use it fairly, but above all else, use it quickly.
Also I would probably head north if I were you, a long way north.â€
Your master hands you A-sword.
"Beware!
This sword is so wanton in its destruction, that the only winning move is not to wield it at all."

Your master hands you the legendary Conhando the Legendary Cone-handed Giant's Giant Sword of Conehandedness +2.

This mighty weapon would be the perfect weapon to complete your Quest Of GreatnessTM if only you were a giant. And had giant cone-shaped hands. :undecided:
Awesome entries! Now bring on some more!
With some reverence, your master hands you a sword... that has a blade made of puzzle pieces.

"There's one piece missing", you say.
"Yes", answers your master sadly, "The last piece was stolen by your evil twin brother. The one with the goatee?"
"Ohnoes!", you wail, "That means..."
"Yes, my pupil. PLOT COUPON."

Wrong thread man! Totally the wrong thread! (laugh)
Tis jus a ebent x-ober!
:shocked: WOE ... if any of you guys dares to find and put that missing piece in! (http://www.smileyvault.com/albums/userpics/12962/nicht_vor_kids.gif)
Seeing the sword in your master's arms, you take a deep breath. Something that you have desired for so long is finally in your reach and ready to be wielded. As your hesitant hand moves slowly towards the hilt, the sword suddenly speaks: "Will you already pick me up, so i can bite you?"

As you are about to set out on an epic journey to slay the dragon and save the princess, your master takes a sword out of the cupboard. He says " I give thee, Dragon Slayer
any chance you forgot to put in an image? ;)

I give thee, Dragon Slayer
Did you forget to include your pic, or is it an INVISIBLE SWORD? :P
Must be the emperor's new sword - invisible to those unfit for their position, stupid, or incompetent.
Sadly, I can't see anything either...
The idea of an invisible sword is so brilliant that my vote is already gravitating towards it. :=

Wow, a really nice welcoming gift to the forums, I must say.
Thanks to everyone who competed and voted, I'll start a new competition sometime later today.
I cannot believe I got third place among the entries here. I am grateful, but honestly think all of my competitors more deserving!
Fun round, kconan! And congrats to everyone!
