"Unrivaled by any other, the Dragon Teeth are six swords of exquisite craftsmanship."
The Dragon Teeth, or Teeth of the Dragon, are a legendary set of weapons spread across
Thedas. Most of the Teeth have been lost to time. As a result, very little is known about them. It is believed that these blades were designed by
Tevinter's finest blade makers, forged from the teeth of the mightiest of
high dragons .

"Prior to this event, I had been doubtful that the Dragon Teeth had even existed and were not but fanciful tales:
A few years back, a fellow academic from Rivain came to me with boundless knowledge on the elusive subject that is the history of the Dragon Teeth. Her name will not be one I will reveal, but she told me of her travels across Orlais and Rivain. To my surprise, she brought up the subject of the Dragon Teeth. I scoffed at her but she insisted, for she came to me so that the truth would be heard across the rolling lands. As she showed evidence, I was stupefied.
The existence of the Dragon Teeth is now, in my mind, unquestionable. She showed me inarguable evidence that she had indeed met, perhaps even more than knew, one who wielded one of these eloquent weapons. She continued, explaining that those who wield such powerful blades must hide themselves from the world. For when these blades are met in the same places, regardless of if as allies or foes, the world as a whole pays the price.
We hypothesized for even she (and presumably the wielder) did not know what the history of these Teeth were. It is my belief that they were crafted from the hands of the Tevinters, with whatever strange powers they wielded before their disappearance. Further in this chapter I detail more of my accrued information.
Oh, and one note to the wise: If you found yourself in a situation where more than one of the Teeth are present. Flee. This woman detailed that as the Teeth found themselves near one another, they grow in power. The wielder she knew had claimed to have only ever seen 3 in the same place at the same time, and Thedas had changed drastically because of it. In what ways, I think it's best we do not know."

According to Ferdinand Genitivi's book, the woman who came to see him claimed that the wielder she knew wielded this blade.

Dematrigon the Great, until he died fighting the
