Lore
...the guardian epic weapon itself is mentioned in the Tome of Destiny. Here are the passages mentioning the sword.
Striding towards the Avatar, Urduuk swore a blood oath to carry out his bidding, extinguishing opposition and building a city worthy of Rallos. Drawing Soulfire, the being touched the flaming blade to Urduuk's shoulder and appointed him as General. He then gave to Urduuk the unholy blade Vel'Arek, forged in Drunder and blessed by Vallon Zek. The sword would drink the blood of the weak to give strength to its wielder.
Urduuk turned back to the Chief and drove the sword through his heart, then watched as Vel'Arek seemed to absorb the blood. The Avatar of War voiced his approval and announced that the Avatar of Flame was taking the same message to the Orcs, who would work with the Ogres to remove men and elves from Norrath. General Urduuk agreed to abide by that command but stated that he would first eliminate Gukta and the Frogloks.
When Ignara seemed confused by the General's reference to his father, Urduuk turned on her, drawing the sword Vel'Arek, which he said had been bestowed on him to symbolize his birthright. Not wanting her head to adorn a post, which was the usual fate of anyone who differed with the General, Ignara hastily agreed that he was the son of Zek, holding her breath as he sheathed his sword.[1]
