The iron greatsword is a devastating weapon favoured by the most powerful warriors. The strongest garou warriors wielded them in battle against goblin invaders, turning armies of green-skinned soldiers into nothing but viscera.
When the dragons turned on their allies, these blades would be turned against armoured scales. Several dragons underestimated the power of these weapons in the hands of a skilled wielder. Garou thanes tore young dragons to pieces, wearing their bones as symbols of their success.
It made them an excellent target for the older dragons. Velgar, a mighty general, marked those wearing dragon bone adornments for death. He crushed them first, brutally and swiftly. Their strength shattered beneath his claws or swallowed in an instant.
The practice quickly fell out of favour.
