Missing Lore
This page is missing lore and awaiting more detail or information from the mod author.
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
The False Master Swords are one-handed swords similar in appearance to the Sleeping Master Sword.
Though equal in strength to an Orcish Sword, they have a slower swing speed more akin to that of a war axe. They count as Silver weapons, dealing extra damage to undead, ghosts, and werewolves. The swords may be tempered with a Silver Ingot.
Location[]
Two False Master Swords can be found, both hidden in the forests of Falkreath Hold.
One of the hidden swords is southeast of Pinewatch and east of the Falkreath Secret Grotto on a large dirt cliff. The sword is surrounded by tall trees, and rests at the base of a large tree.
Another sword is located east of North Shriekwind Bastion and west of Lakeview Manor (if Hearthfire is installed). The sword is surrounded by tall trees and is located behind a small dirt cliff and large rock formation opposite the shore of Lake Ilinalta. The cliff near the sword is across from a fallen tree and bird's nest at the base of a large stone cliff-face.

Background and Inspiration[]
The original False Master Sword was included in Version 6.0 alongside the Ruptured Towers. In Version 6.6.1, it was renamed to the Blade of the Hero's Shade. It was also given a unique appearance based on the damaged Master Sword in Breath of the Wild.
In Version 6.5, JKalenad added two weaker False Master Swords to the forest of Falkreath Hold, akin to the decoys in A Link to the Past's Lost Woods. An empty pedestal can also be found within the Hold.
