Balduran's Giantslayer
Balduran's Giantslayer is a legendary greatsword that receives doubled damage bonus from Strength and grants special bonuses against Large, Huge, and Gargantuan creatures.
Wielded by Balduran, the founder of Baldur's Gate and friend to his guardian dragon, a great glittering wyrm called Ansur. Fellowship can be undone, though, as easily as you or I might unlace the strings of our shoes, and it was in a time of skullduggery and hardship that Balduran killed Ansur, carrying out the deed with this sword.
