Baneblades of Demron The Baneblades of Demron were six powerful magic sword s forged for the defenders of Myth Drannor before its fall . The archmage Demron was credited with their creation over some three centuries , but they were cooperative efforts among all the races that dwelled in Myth Drannor . Each was designed for a member of a particular race or profession , and their magic ceased to function for anyone else , leaving only a nonmagical weapon of otherwise fine quality . They were imbued with holy energy and were particularly effective against outsider s ( those from planes other than the Prime Material Plane ) and undead , and glowed with the light of a torch on command . Each also had their own unique powers . Creation and History . In 346 DR , several senior and junior officers were exiled from Myth Drannor after it was revealed that they had subjected their non - elven troops to horrendous treatment and for willingly sacrificing them in favor of elven troops , especially in the Darkwoods Massacre . Major Pirphal Faerondaryl offered his resignation for his failure to notice the problem , but Coronal Eltargrim Irithyl refused it and instructed him to work to remedy the issue . Major Pirphal then commissioned the first three of the Baneblades as weapons for his new lieutenants : one is a halfling , the other a dwarf , and the third a human . These blades were dwarven - forged , the hilts were of elven make , and the human archmage Demron was asked to enchant them . Twelve years later in 358 DR . Demron completed the enchanting of the first three baneblades . By 398 DR , the baneblade " Morvian " was held by Lady Ahskahala Durothil , the previous owner having been killed in the " Night Dragon ' s Attack " skirmish earlier that year . By 460 DR , the archmage Demron was asked to complete another baneblade , though this one was for the Spell - Major , since the traditional sword for that post , the " Ary ' Faern ' Kerym " , was lost 10 years earlier by Zaos Durothil when he attempted to fight off the red dragon Edallisufanxar . This blade was known as " Faervian " , and was completed only two years later in 462 DR . This was the only one created for the Akh ' Faer , the arcane branch of the army . In 574 DR , Demron was asked once again to craft another baneblade , a fifth one , to serve as the blade for the Arms - Major of the Akh ' Velahr ( the normal standing army of Cormanthyr ) . It was completed later that year and named " Dragathil " . The last of the baneblades , " Keryvian " , was completed by Demron in 633 DR for the Arms - Major position once again , since the previous baneblade " Dragathil " was lost in 590 DR when Arms - Major Pirphal died fighting the black dragon Mrinabnahor . " Keryvian " was said to be the most powerful of the baneblades . Exhausted by its creation , Demron died only two days later .
