Proditio
A deprecated weapon of the Red Court created before the advent of Empedoclean Rounds. It is capable of transforming from a massive greatsword into a bolt firing turret.
When the Ruby Lord and her court agreed to join the rebellion against giants, the Crimson Retainers shifted from the wardens of the Realms to its liberators. Their forces provided the majority of the backbone both in numbers and abilities.
The future Overking’s deal with the Court was spoken of in quiet reverie for how such a prodigious agreement was reached for so little in return to the court. Of course, if most knew of the treatise and the Red Court’s exceedingly simple terms, they would be far less impressed.
It was a high cost for the Red Court to betray their creators, but it was not the Realms they would come to serve who paid the price.
