The Griffin Sword was a magical sword created by Lorminstra for use by her high priest Morfell.

Unfortunately, Morfell attempted to turn the weapon over to the Dark Alliance and the weapon shattered into four pieces. From this began the First Griffin Sword War. The powers of the Pantheon of Liabo recovered the shards and it was reforged and placed in a stone before the temple in Wehnimer's Landing. For several years, adventurers blessed their own weapons by rubbing the embedded sword.

There it remained until a Luukosian High Priest named Morvule Thinevael sought to take the sword. A high priest named Ulstram took the sword and combated Morvule, in the process, the sword was once again shattered, initiating the Second Griffin Sword War. Four shards were lost once again, however, this time the Dark Alliance recovered three and The Resistance, one. Morvule forged an unholy war from those shards, while Ulstram forged a new sword from his shard.

The two met in combat once again with the result that Ulstram was killed and Morvule recovered the last piece of the Griffin Sword. He reforged the Griffin Sword, but the mighty weapon was destroyed or rather, made never to have existed, when it came into contact with a scythe of Gosaena wielded by Charna Ja'Varrel'Kav. Thus ended the story of the Griffin Sword.
