Lugh's Spear was the legendary spear supposedly owned by the Isu Lugh, who would later be remembered as the Irish god of craftsmanship and law.

During her travels, the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan acquired this spear after defeating the champion at the River Erriff.[1]

Behind the scenes

Despite its common sounding name and generic description, the spear may be a reference to the Gáe Assail, Lugh's semi-sentient and bloodthirsty spear with which he killed the Fomorian giant Balor. Like both Gungnir and Mjölnir, it could return to the wielder once thrown and was said to have lightning powers,[2] similar to Assassin's Creed: Valhalla's depiction of his son Cú Chulainn's spear Gae Bolg which differs from the mythical accounts.
