The Vorpal Sword is an enchanted weapon that kills anything with a single cut.
History
It was used most notably by Boy Blue during his infiltration of the Homelands. In one swipe, he cut down each of the Adversary's forces, eventually confronting the Adversary himself.
During the confrontation, the sword failed for the first time, unable to penetrate the immensely powerful protective magic that had been layered over the Adversary. However, it was the first weapon used in an assassination attempted not destroyed by the magic.
Bufkin the flying monkey more recently used the blade to slay Baba Yaga, who was trapped with him in the magically relocated business office.
Notes
The Vorpal Blade makes the distinct sound "Snicker-Snack!" with each strike.
