What's the most badass artifact you've gotten recently?

What's the most badass artifact you've gotten recently?

I got Thebrumad, which sounds great. Unfortunately, it translates to Beigedull, which sounds less imposing.
However, the object itself is still bad ass, as it's a steel ring, encrusted with clear tourmaline, encircled with steel, more tourmaline and highwood. Cave spider silk hangs off it.

'This is a large, dwarf bone serrated disk. It menaces with spikes of dwarf bone'
It was made by the expedition leader, one of the few last sane dwarfs in a full-blown tantrum spiral (my first)
I like to think of it as her last, desperate, attempt to bring things back into order.
Sadly, it failed.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Now seek out your fortress with an adventurer and become the macabre thrower of the serrated dwarf bone disk.  *Always* aim for the throat.

The eaglebone bin worth a quarter million was pretty badass, but my favourite is the steel battle axe in the first year! (melted down a bought anvil for the steel)

Man. You need to find that thing in Adventure mode and use it as your main weapon.

My favorite was a Raw Adamtinie Crown that had engraved on it the accession to leadership of our civilizations FIRST king.
Now useful, but badass.

A wool sock. A palm bracelet. A leather vest. Those are the only artifacts I've gotten in the past five years. Worthless.

An iron breastplate of WAR. Seriously, it was pretty epic. And it was made in the middle of siege.

I'd like a indestructible easy fort entrance as well.
But murphy's law says its still pickable.

In one of the succession forts I was involved with, a steel pick was made during my reign. It was covered in spikes, so it was clearly meant to be used as a weapon. That's gotta be the dwarf equivalent of Excalibur, it's too appropriate.

Ah, yes, I thought something was amiss. Now I see. There's not enough terrible things in the lakes.

My militia leader was using an artifact steel shield, and then during a horrific siege, someone cranked out an artifact warhammer with the civ's insignia.  The dwarf was promptly named Thor
