[Lore] Fragarach (Euryale's War Hammer)

Fragarach is a legendary war hammer created by an unknown Celtic god.  During Athena's travels, she and other Olympians battled some Celtic gods.  The Olympians were narrowly victorious and Fragarach was taken as part of the plunder.  Athena kept the hammer in her temple in Athens until around 400 BCE.

During the events of Tragedy of Medusa, Euryale used the hammer which she found in the temple to smash open the door guarding the room where Medusa was being violated.  Seeing what was going on deeply disturbed Euryale who went into a lust rage and used the hammer on Poseidon causing grievous wounds that took many years to fully recover.

Unique Properties

The hammer has several unique properties.  First, while wielding the weapon, the wielder cannot lie.  Second, any wounds caused by the weapon on mortals will not heal.  Victims of this weapon, even with minor injuries are prone to infections and ultimately death if constant treatment is not applied.

When the weapon is used on a god or other higher power (ie Demon or Succubus), the wounds inflicted by the weapon may heal, but it requires much time and energy.

History

Euryale used the hammer for several thousand years until passing it on to Chrys, Euryale's son with Ceraphina after the events of Euryale's Gambit.  Because future Euryale passed the weapon to Chrys, Euryale the younger still had the original version thus two existed at the same time.

Chrys' hammer was later stolen by Persius which troubled Chrys greatly.
