Questing Blade
The questing blade is Ricky's fireman's axe, and it glows when he uses magic UC E1·00:55:31. At the chantry, a glass case has painter's tape marking where "your questing blade shot out" UC E1·01:02:36.
The questing blade is Ricky's axe, which glows when he smites, and Brennan calls it the questing blade of the paladin UC E2·00:55:04 UC E4·01:03:21. It speaks for the first time in Hell's Kitchen: "This is a wicked place. Ricky—" UC E9·01:08:23. It later says "Sire, the time has come for action" and "Cleave true, brave firefighter. Flex your pecs" UC E10·00:46:11 UC E10·01:46:47.
It hungers for Moses ("Sire, I hunger for this one!") and says a boon awaits Ricky UC E14·01:56:05 UC E14·02:33:37. It speaks in a deep British accent UC E15·01:09:42. It tells Ricky "I would only use that power, master, in the most dire of circumstances" UC E16·01:56:51. In the final battle Ricky uses its power for 10d10 radiant damage at the cost of taking the attack's damage on himself, and later gives it to Dale, in whose hands it becomes nunchucks UC E17·00:48:48 UC E17·01:20:41 UC E17·01:20:49.
