No goblin will strike you down’ is etched into this dagger’s handle. When goblin assailants realised they couldn’t kill the dagger’s original owner, they gave him to the worgs, who made short work of him.

The Lord of Murder wasn’t always a lord. He was once just a petty killer. When Bhaalfirst drew blood in a Baldurian back-alley, it dropped to the ground and lingered. When he amended, this dried blond-drop grew, warped - and became sharp.

Overview: Bloodthirst is a legendary Dagger of exceptional power, entrusted to the capable hands of Orin. This blade not only heightens the wielder’s chances of landing critical hits but also grants the ability to invoke the spell “True Strike.”

The origins of Bloodthirst are shrouded in dark history. It was wielded by Bhaal, who was once a mere petty killer before ascending to his infamous status as the Lord of Murder. The weapon’s creation has roots in the earliest manifestations of his malevolence, as the very blood he first shed in a back-alley of Baldur began its transformation into this sinister blade.

Once wielded by a murderer, the weapon’s handle retains an eerie, clammy warmth, as if Dolor’s pre-slaughter sweat somehow crept into the leather - and lingers there still.

Odd to think that dark gods like Bhaal were once mortal. One wonders if they have ever thumbed a wagon ride, thought about the weather, or eaten flavoured yoghurt.

The blade is sharp, and the handle firm. Yet death exudes from this dagger as it might from a fresh corpse.

Inside the hidden Sharran Sanctuary located near the graveyard. It requires you to solve the plaque puzzle to enter it. When inside, you need to solve a few more statue roll puzzles, and then take the dagger from the altar. Be warned, taking the altar can cause some guards to spawn.
