Anyone know what happened to it?
I know it was snapped in two, and it felled Mask,
But what after that?
Was the sword destroyed?
If it still exists, it is in two parts right?
Can it be mended?
Thanks in advance.

It was Mask, in effect- Mask had manifested an avatar as the sword Godsbane.

Breaking the sword destroyed the avatar. I think Kelemvor threw the two pieces into the River Slith, destroying them, in Prince of Lies.

Not canonically- unless you rule that the River Slith in fact did no damage to the two pieces.

If you do rule that way, or have Kelemvor not throw the pieces away "The Return of Godsbane" could be an interesting campaign arc.

Thats what I am thinking.
Btw, this is for an all evil campaign :smallbiggrin:
We would have to have some way to actually get to the two pieces,
then find a way to forge them back together..
That would bring back a spark of life in Mask (only in the sword)
Who will be a vengeful and intelligent weapon.
Could be interesting =P

Does anyone have information of the River Slith?
I have read it is like an ooze that is filled with knives.
Does that mean it is not swim-able?
If anyone knows what book this is from, that would be great.

Outside of the novel Prince of Lies, I haven't seen much on it. I'm not sure if it still exists on the Fugue Plane- 3.5 Players Guide to Faerun doesn't mention it. Using the rules for the River Styx (in Manual of the Planes) might be a good place to start-

maybe with a little damage, not just the memory loss, and a "anything that dies in it dies completely- soul as well" extra rule.
