    The Dawnblade doesn't have a specified origin, sure it could be Necron but it could also be Eldar, Old One, Chaos, or something completely unknown.

    • @Jack-0-lantern
      @Jack-0-lantern Před 8 měsíci +12

      I for one believe in the theory that the DawnBlade was forged with a shard of the ancient sword, Anaris - The Sword of Dawnlight. Anaris was the last sword forged by Vaul, the Smith God of the ancient Aeldari. This sword was welded by the greatest of the Eldar heroes, Eldanesh, in his duel against the Eldar god of war, Khaine. when Eldanesh lost, Khanie clamed the sword for himself. However, when Khaine was shattered by the newly awakened Slaanesh, the sword too would be shattered into pieces.

    • @watchonjar
      @watchonjar Před 7 měsíci +1

      im pretty sure its a chaos blade, necrons dont use the warp and eldar or old ones wouldn't have a need for immortality. Chaos also fits thematically aswell.

    • @Jack-0-lantern
      @Jack-0-lantern Před 7 měsíci +3

      @@watchonjar it's not a chaos blade. Warp powered maybe, but its not chaos. Both the design and the length of time in which Farsight has held on to and used the blade without falling proves this. Any time, farsight has been tempted, it has been either from being in the presence of demons or after looking directly into a warp portal. The blade itself hasn't been shown to corrupt his mind in anyway, even when using it, and the books show this when given a first person POV. Also, the sword was found in a temple where anti chaos talismans were found, the kind that repels demons and nullifys psychic power. The fact that Farsight keeps one with himself and it doesn't affect the swords abilities at all says something. It's more likely either a Necron sword that steals temporal energies, a reforged eldar sword or something new. The sword itself is not corruptive. If you wish to argue that it fit thematically, the theory that the sword once belonged to the ancient Aeldari hero, Eldanesh that fought Kaela Mensha Khaine works better, since it would parallel Farsights own struggles and conflicts with Khorne. Both great heros to their people, in conflict with a war god.
