The Sword of Obliteration is an ancient relic of exceptional power that belonged to The Ashen Born. The living god was the only recorded individual to be able to wield the weapon. After their parting, no one can use nor lift it with bare hands.
Origin of the Sword

Prior to the sword, The Ashen Born wielded their ordinary claymore that belonged to their mortal self. When the sword broke after a skirmish, their patron, Teszect told them about the Sword of Obliteration buried in the "deepest of Void that no mortal can reach nor escape".
The Ashen Born defeated the guardian of the plane and claimed the sword. The runes on the sword immediately reacted to them, recognizing them as their wielder.

History

Artorias, the Guardian of Void and the original owner of the Sword of Obliteration, was defeated by the Ashen Born and claimed the sword. Artorias' essence is absorbed by the sword, spawning runes that gave the weapon its abyssal abilities.
The sword is known to be resilient, having no wear and tear on the blades despite centuries after the destruction of Maerus. After the Ashen Born's parting, the sword is found buried near the mountains of Eye of the World, where it's believed the Ashen Born final resting place.

The Obliterator; Artorias

The former Guardian of Void and owner of The Sword of Obliteration. He was one of the Four Knights of the Abyss before his demise at the hands of The Ashen Born. He was considered to be the most aggressive and powerful.
His demise shook the remaining Knights of Abyss, knowing that The Ashen Born was only a proxy to a god and by no means, an immortal just yet. It was only after Artorias' passing and his essence absorbed by the sword that The Ashen Born was granted immortality once the sword chose the living god as its new owner.
