Dragon Hammer

The **Dragon Hammer** was one of the Dragon Items used by the Dragon Knights. It was also called **Demon Gauntlet** when it was in its original gauntlet form as part of the Dragon Armour set.

## Appearance

In its hammer form, it had the emblem of Immortui; a large eye with a pair of wings.

## Powers

Like the God Slayer Sword, it contains a soul, although it would be one that belonged to a Demon. Also, like the former sword, it causes madness. Like the former, it can attract its victims to it.

One remarkable difference is however that it can change its shape. It sometimes appeared as a hammer, and sometimes as a gauntlet. The gauntlet's main power was to control the deceased Dragons trapped in the Dragon "Hell" or "Shadow World" (maybe a part of the Red Plane ?).

The weapon would do anything to stay latched to its host: grow additional muscle fibers or just killing the host when one attempted to remove it.

## Ownership

* **Dragon Knight****, Albert**
* **Vercy Krang**
* **Gary Bluebird**
* **Ray Talen**

## History

The Dragon Hammer was said to have been lost 300 years before My Dragon System, which means it was anterior to the Fall of the Dragons (about 100 years before) and could not have been made from the Red Dragon Sen's Beast Crystal.

It is possible that the weapon was crafted by the Humans and Dwarves for the Celestials to help the latter exterminate the Dragons, of whom they were afraid of because they were God Slayers.

The Dragon Hammer reappeared as the weapon of the Dragon Knight Albert. It was lost again when the Dragon Knights slowly succumbed to the Shadow Plague and ended up maddened by the Dragon Hammer. The knights killed each other so that none of them would become puppets of the Shadow.

One day, the 28 years old miner Vercy Krang was extracting minerals with his crew when he heard something calling to him. He thought it was a lost child, so he went to take a look. He found a hammer, and as soon as he touched it, he was possessed. During his possession, he became famous in the vicinities of Kelberg for the rampage he caused and was nicknamed the "Demon Man".

When Gary Bluebird tried to remove the Hammer from Vercy's hand, he faced great difficulties. Strands of muscles grew and wrapped themselves around the hammer, and they would regrow when they were cut. Eventually, the hammer detached itself, assumed a liquid form, and jumped on Gary Bluebird's right arm, where it solidified into a gauntlet.

From then on, Gary Bluebird was possessed and became a Shadow Guard. The Demon was quite adept to use Gary's memories to fool his friends, although it seems Gary could also influence the Demon slightly. The Demon answered to Gary's desire for power and magnified it.

During the Demon's duel with Kyle, Ray Talen aborted the duel and threw a full discharge of lightning mana to Gary, which flung him into the portal to the "Shadow World". It appears this discharge somehow removed the presence of the Demon.

When Gary emerged from the Shadow World, he threw the deactivated gauntlet to Ray Talen like he requested. From a right gauntlet, it became the missing left gauntlet. This way, the Dragon Armor set was complete. Ray Talen's original power was almost entirely recovered.
