"If I don't kill a man every now and then, they forget who I am."―Blackbeard
Brandishing the Sword of Triton, Blackbeard commanded unearthly power aboard his ship the Queen Anne's Revenge. Its magical connection to the Revenge and any other ship was such that the vessel would do the indomitable will of whoever wielded it. This is Blackbeard’s screen used sword of Triton from the fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, On Stranger Tides. According to legend, this sword was forged in the lost city of Atlantis and was embedded with one of the three sapphires of Triton. Used in the construction of the sword, the sapphire gave the infamous blade its power. Whoever wielded the Sword of Triton commanded unearthly mystical power, which included bringing dead matter to life and moving it according to the will of the sword's wielder. This power was mainly enforced on everything associated with ships at sea, including their rigging and sails.
