Cultist Shortsword
Cultist Shortsword shares its two scenes - Chorus_Cultists/1v1_Leader and Chorus_Cultists/Default - with Cultist Club and Cultist Sword, the faction's other two documented weapon variants. All three tie to the Cultists' Camp questline: 'confront the Chorus Cultists' leader and obtain the first Heartwood Key fragment,' an Act 3 quest that rewards the questline's only documented item drop alongside 72,706 XP and 150 gold.
This weapon-variant structure mirrors the Syndicate faction's own naming pattern (SyndicateShortsword, SyndicateAxe, SyndicateGreatsword), suggesting MythFall reuses the same enemy-template design across its two hostile human factions - each with a leader-focused encounter and several rank-and-file weapon variants.
Like its Club and Sword counterparts, this render was flagged during review as showing an item/weapon prop rather than a character, so no image is published for it here.
