I read up a bit about it. Clearly a warforged god. If you ask me, I say his origins started when some divine deity or mortal decided to take the creation of a artificer and bestow upon it a mighty force that would be feared by all. Now that I think about it, it kinda makes me a bit scared how warforged worship a lawful evil deity...especially lawful good ones(Referring to Lord of Blades enhancements). Anyways, I'm thinking the Lord of Blades is a bit like Father Karras; crazy, but smart, and perhaps a bit religious. Is it anything like Karras, or nothing like it at all? (For those of you who have played Thief II, you'll know if the lord of blades is anything like Karras or not when compared mentally, not physically.)
