Description
The handle of La Duchesse proudly displays the seahorse, emblem of Bicolline (
https://bicolline.org/en/), on its pommel and on each side of its hilt. The golden color gives it a majestic aspect that is sure to turn heads. The rest of the handle, more sober, gives it a striking realism. The subtle variations between silver and steel hues, between black and dark brown, allow the details of the grip and the guard to be raised. The blade has all the characteristics of the latest innovations from Calimacil. It strikes the perfect balance between safety and a realistic look. The illusion of sharpness is accentuated by the colors of a silver edging on a steel base. As a final touch, the base of the blade features engravings whose detail is revealed by a gold color on a black background.
Legend
More than a simple foam sword for LARP, La Duchesse will occupy an important place in several scenarios. Object of legend, lost for eternity then found in a first quest, she will find herself alongside the king in the next. Her awe-inspiring appearance makes her ideal for roles like paladins, knights, wealthy merchants, or any other high ranking member of society whose wealth is matched only by his or her bravery in battle.
Background
Created in collaboration with Le Duché de Bicolline, La Duchesse represents the culmination of two universes linked by the same destiny. On the one hand, Bicolline (
https://bicolline.org/en/), in 2021 the largest domain devoted to medieval fantasy role-playing games in North America, is celebrating the 25th anniversary of it's Battle. On the other hand, Calimacil, whose know-how for the creation of foam weapons for LARP continues to evolve, now has partnerships between the various LARP industry players.
