Sword is an old role playing villain of mine from many years ago. With his partner Shield, they wreaked havoc on many heroes.

Sword has had many incarnations, because it is not the man, but the rune weapon, The Sword of Ages, that bears power. If one host is slain, the next person of villainous intent to touch the blade will gain the power and be forever linked to the blade until his death.

This was a great custom to make because it involved exactly zero paint! He was a few choice armor bits from a couple spawn guys attached to a more poseable doner body. Add some cool weapons and he's done. The time was taken in selecting the right gear to fit my old drawings of the character.
