Cadaverous Rake
A dead duelist fences with a swordsman's cruel, practiced grace, landing a barbed quip as sharply as every well-placed blade.
A dead duelist who carries its vanity past the grave, the cadaverous rake fences with the easy cruelty of a swordsman who has nothing left to lose and a reputation to ruin. Every parry comes with a barbed quip that lands as hard as the blade.
