Vlad’s weapon of choice was a beautifully crafted longsword with a screaming face upon the hilt. When this sword draws blood, the life force of the victim is used to revitalise the blade's master. The blade of this evil sword is never satisfied with the amount of blood it drinks and constantly emits a piercing scream, demanding more. As it moves through the air, the blade screams and wails hungrily for the blood of men. Blood Drinker was crafted by the Dark Elves of Naggaroth, and it was carried with those explorers from that land who first came to ancient Nehekhara. It was presented to Vashanesh by Nagash along with the Von Carstein Ring, and it was used by Vlad in his great campaign against the Empire. After his fall at the Siege of Altdorf, the blade was believed buried with Vlad under the temple of Sigmar, but in the tide of war, few are sure the right blade was seized.
