Shadowflash, also called Silverflash,[1] was the +1 silver short sword owned by Vhaeraun, the drow deity of thievery.[2]

Description[]

Shadowflash was a short sword of gleaming silver.[1]

Powers[]

As the name suggested, Shadowflash could flash. The intensity of this light was about that of a continual light spell. Everyone but Vhaeraun within 70 ft. (21.34 m) who saw this light went blind for two to five minutes[2]

History[]

How Vhaeraun came to own Shadowflash was unknown. The short sword was his favored weapon. His clerics preferred the usage of a short sword too.[4] They often mastered a combat style called sargh'elgg with a short sword.[5]

The sword was also used in his assassination attempt against Eilistraee.[6]
