The Eagle of Suger was a sword acquired by the French Assassin Arno Dorian while in Saint-Denis during the French Revolution. A powerful relic imbued with the power to emit blinding flashes of light when it struck an enemy, the weapon was created using knowledge from the Isu.
History[edit | edit source]
Around 1140, the French Abbot Suger ordered goldsmiths to update an antique vase with eagle features, creating Suger's Eagle, which was later rumored to have been commissioned by the prelate to contain a powerful weapon.[1] The rumors were true as Suger had created a sword, using the knowledge of the Apple of Eden contained in the Head of Saint Denis that was hidden in the temple below the city,[2] "bathing the Eagle into its light" according to the legend.[3] The sword's hilt was golden, patterned akin to feathers, with the crossguard resembling a pair of wings and the pommel being in the shape of an eagle's head.[4]
At some point, the sword was taken out of the vase and hidden in a secret chamber inside the Basilica of Saint-Denis, until it was recovered by the Assassin Arno Dorian in August 1794.[5] During the Battle of Ulm between 16–19 October 1805, the Eagle's use allowed for Emperor Napoleon I's French Army to prove victorious against the Austrian Empire's troops under General Karl Mack von Leiberich.[6]
Abilities[edit | edit source]
The sword was imbued with the ability to emit bright flashes of blinding light, allowing its wielder some breathing room during combat while the light momentarily blinded and stunned opponents. It was created using Isu knowledge acquired from the Apple of Eden contained in the Head of Saint Denis.[4]
