The sword has never seen the light of day, and is steeped in dark.

Acquired From

• Weaponsmith Ornifex, traded for Old Dead One's soul and 10,000 souls.
• Can only be acquired in NG+ and beyond or by using a Bonfire Ascetic in the Black Gulch in the Hidden Chamber bonfire.

Hints and Tips:

• Reinforced with Petrified Dragon Bone to +5.
• Uses the Greataxe moveset.
• By default it deals Dark damage, it can also be infused with Darknight Stone and buffed with Dark Weapon, best for hexers with high Strength, Intelligence and Faith.
• Once infused with Dark, it deals an obscene amount of Dark damage provided if you have 65 intelligence + Faith above, a perfect melee weapon for hexers.
• At 45 str/dex, 45 int, and 63 faith, while infused with Dark and wearing Ring of Blades +2 and Dark Clutch Ring, it has an astounding AR of 870 (266+65 Phys damage, 218+320 Dark damage). With Dark Weapon applied that brings the weapons total AR to 1067.
• It receives S scaling on Dark if infused with Dark.
• Two-handed strong attack can knock down enemies, like the Murakumo.
• Wielded by Grave Warden Agdayne when he's summoned or aggroed.
