Virdigris

A ritual dagger, aglow with moonlight. A fine point, more handle than blade, Virdigris seeks sacrifice. She is wrought with copper, a cleansing metal meant to protect the holder from what vengeful spirit may lurch from its mark. The innermost ring of Iridis is her namesake. May that be the fate of your fallen.
