I was wondering, because i've seen some names here or there for people's weaponry, what you all decide to name Forged Weapons, if you do at all? Personally, I like to name them based on the character (or in the case of my Avatar, what I like and what my OC she's named after likes), as I like to have weapons that fit their character in some way. My current list of names is: Silas' Vow (Silver Sword used by Silas) Silas' Honor (Venge Naginata used by Silas) First one refers to his vow to be your friend, and Silas' Honor refers to his voiced quote "On my honor as a knight." Then there's two for my Avatar (Thalia) Caliburn (Silver Sword used when in the Great Lord class or other sword using class) Carnwennan (Silver Dagger/Knife used when in a Shuriken/Knife using class) Both are taken from Arthurian Legend, which I kinda like. I then have: Missiletainn (Forged Silver Katana used by Owain/Odin. Referring to his unique sword in Awakening) Severa's Last (Silver Sword Referring to Severa/Selena's Awakening name and the fact that in Birthright she was a Bow Knight who primarily used bows. And I make her a hero. Ergo, it's Severa's Last Sword. Originally I meant it to be Severa's Last Memory, but that wouldn't fit and I had to find a new meaning for the name. It being her last sword has thus kinda stuck with me lately) Inigo's Dance (Silver Sword Referring to Inigo/Laslow's Awakening name and the fact he dances.) Hinoka's Goal (Silver Naginata Referring to it's user and her reason for starting to use a Naginata) Adoration (Silver Axe used by Camilla and referring to her absolute adoration [at least to me] in regards to the Avatar) Sakura's Love (Shining bow referring to it's user and the fact she seems to love everyone) Elise's Beam (A forged Robin's Primer, because I'd hoped it'd be a Thoron, thus beam. Used by Elise and one I really have to rename because dammit it's not a beam!)

Forging.... one of the more interesting ways to give your units an advantage, by upgrading a weapon's stats (though not without paying coin, of course). I find myself using this mechanic pretty often, as I enjoy just making certain weapons much stronger than before, and also giving said weapons a not so creative new name. Of course, this requires a ton of gold to do so, but I personally find it worth the trouble. So, how often do you forge? How big are your adjustments to the weapons you forge? Do you also name your weapon?
