  • The Singing Sword is one of Albion's oldest fables. It tells the tale of a sword whose enormous powers were matched by the perfect pitched voice with which it would sing battle songs. But in some versions of the myth, it was its dreadful lack of tune that would defeat whole armies. This has led some scholars to believe that the tale has its root in Temmins, the worst bard ever to exist. He who once killed an old Hero by regaling him with a monstrously bad melody. Unfortunately, it is only a fable, and such a sword has never existed. However, in Fable III, one of the Legendary weapons is The Swinging Sword, and its description is as follows: "Often misidentified as "The Singing Sword", this weapon thrives on a wielder who is, shall we say, generous with their affections."
  • A famous Loskalmi sword. * Wielded by Snodal and Meriatan * It was forged in Nida * It is made from Iron Source: Guide to Glorantha
  • The Singing Sword is a minor character in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
  • A singing sword was a magic +1 greatsword made of silver. It sang constantly (and loudly) when it was drawn, and gave its wielder a morale bonus, and a larger morale bonus against spells or effects affecting the mind. It was worth around 25,000 gold pieces.

  • A singing sword was a magic +1 greatsword made of silver. It sang constantly (and loudly) when it was drawn, and gave its wielder a morale bonus, and a larger morale bonus against spells or effects affecting the mind. It was worth around 25,000 gold pieces. The goddess Eilistraee gifted twenty holy singing bastard swords to Qilue Veladorn and the drow of the Promenade of the Dark Maiden. The blades' song made its wielder confident and immune to charm, command, confusion, fear, friends, repulsion, scare and suggestion. An emotion cast on the wielder only caused rage, focused on the one who cast the emotion spell. The sword's song also cancelled the effects of a harpy's song, silenced shriekers, and could entrance weak, earthly, living creatures, although this ability could be negated by a bard's counter-song.
