Viper's Tooth

The Viper's Tooth was a legendary khopesh laced with a highly virulent poison for which it earned its snake symbolism.
==Description==
With its golden blade and hilt, the Viper's Tooth was a powerful sword which did not hide its legendary status. Like any khopesh, its blade sharply arched forward before curving back to align back with the hilt, but this blade was superbly keen in comparison to other contemporary sickle swords. Aside from the evidently sharp back edge, the tip also tapered to a fine point, and the fineness of the blade along with its sleek and seamless curvature recalled the shape of a crescent moon more than most khopeshes.Assassin's Creed: Origins
The deadliest aspect of the Viper's Tooth, however, stemmed from its venom from which its name was derived. The poison laced onto the blade was so virulent that it frequently emitted toxic, purple fumes. Although the poison was likened to that of a viper's fang, in truth, the effects were dissimilar: those struck by the blade experienced extreme nausea and disorienting pain before their organs ruptured soon after, killing them. The poison was also highly contagious, as the bodies of afflicted individuals emitted the toxic fumes that poisoned anyone exposed to it. In some situations, death was preceded by vomiting.
==History==
The Viper's Tooth was found in Egypt during the mid-1st century BCE by the Medjay Bayek of Siwa, the founder of the Hidden Ones.
