Byzantine Parang (CIS Productions)

 In construction 



The Byzantine Parang is a supernatural weapon used by Moloch that causes its wielder to act on their darker impulses and soon be overcome with an unquenchable bloodlust. It was held by various people in England, all of whom Ichabod Crane found out to be the infamous "Jack the Ripper", all of their predecessors and many of their successors.

The weapon is believed to have been made in the Byzantine (East Roman) Empire around the early 11th century for Iftikhar al-Dawla, Fatimid governor of Jerusalem during the siege of 1099. A legend states that anyone who wields the Byzantine parang would be overcome with a bloodlust to kill anyone they hate, and in fact, it was caused by Moloch who made a evil spirit to possess the blade.

The blade shall merge with its wielder when they start to become relentless and willing while committing the killing spree. Ichabod's research indicates that the knife itself has been linked to countless murders throughout history. As each wave of murders stopped amid a sudden outbreak of disease, it is clear that the curse can be broken by infecting the wielder.

First appearing in LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow, the blade itself plays an important role in both Death Arc and Firenza Junior Spin-Off.
