Historical Information[]

Terpsichore

A dagger named after an ancient goddess of dance. Upon first examination, it seems to differ in no particular way from conventional daggers. It bears a concealed button however, which, when depressed, causes the blade to trifurcate. This transforms the weapon into an effective defensive device, capable of entwining an enemy's blade and rendering it near ineffective, if not disarming the opponent entirely.

Background[]

In Greek mythology, Terpsichore (pronounced /tərpˈsɪkəri/) ("delight of dancing") was one of the nine Muses, ruling over dance and the dramatic chorus. She lends her name to the word "terpsichorean" which means "of or relating to dance". She is usually depicted sitting down, holding a lyre, accompanying with her music to the dancers' choirs. She is sometimes said to be the mother of the Sirens by Achelous. Her name comes from the Greek words τέρπω ("delight") and χoρός ("dance"). The weapon itself is identical in form and function to a trident dagger.
