NOBLE PHANTASM(S):

Moralltach (“Great Fury”) | Anti-unit B+

         The famed crimson sword that was said to have 'left no stroke nor blow unfinished at the first trial', it was given to Diarmuid by his foster father Aengus Og, who had originally received it from the sea god Manannán mac Lir, it's creator. Once it is unsheathed, Moralltach's first strike against a target is guaranteed to hit and kill them in spite of any obstacles that might otherwise stand in its way ( most armours, shields, weapons, magic, blessings, etc).

         The first strike delivered by Moralltach cannot be evaded either-- one can technically dodge or avoid the blade itself, but the 'strike' will still find its way onto a target regardless (think Gae Bolg-- once the attack is unleashed, there is no escape). An opponent who's luck parameter is C or above can have the damage they first receive from Moralltach reduced (rendering it's typically fatal blows as less so), but even they will still be harmed by it's blade, and be left with a wound that will never properly heal (as long as Moralltach still remains in the world).

         Should an enemy survive their first encounter with this noble phantasm, it will forever take on a lesser function when used to engage them, acting with identical abilities to Gae Dearg (one of Diarmuid's other famed weapons) from then on. Like Diarmuid's other noble phantasms, Moralltach's effects are passive, and do not require it's name to be chanted before utilizing them-- they are always active once the blade is unsheathed.

Beagalltach (“Little Fury”) | Anti-unit (self) C

         The companion blade to Moralltach, this golden short-sword was given to Diarmuid by his foster father Aengus Og, being described as a weapon of lesser power than it's slightly larger counterpart. When unsheathed, Beagalltach will grant a bonus to his agility parameter and magic resistance skill, pushing them up by one ranking each (agility to A++, magic resistance to A).  

          This noble phantasm will also bestow upon Diarmuid a blessing that will shield him from one fatal blow per engagement, regardless of the incoming attack's power or the effects it carries, unless the attack is dealt by someone/something of demonic origin or nature. Noble Phantasm’s of the Anti-Fortress and beyond classifications will also overwhelm this defensive blessing. Being a passive noble phantasm, it's effects will be constantly active once unsheathed, and do not require its name to be chanted before use.

Notes:

- Diarmuid will not use Moralltach for offense unless he see's it as absolutely necessary. Only when faced with the most serious of battles or situations will Diarmuid seek to utilize the blades true effect, and until he is faced with one, he will only use it on a purely defensive basis, if at all. 

-  Moralltach’s first strike is nigh unavoidable, but Diarmuid has to be within physical striking distance of his enemy when it’s unleashed. i.e he has to be up close in melee with them for the first strike to truly activate.

- Moralltach and Beagalltach were both created by Manannán mac Lir (an Irish sea god), making them Divine Constructs.

The tale of Cursed’s Lancelot and Nimue comes from the Imbolc myth and the Irish love triangles...also Tristan and Iseult. The first time I saw the two swords of the Weeping Monk, I screamed as every good pagan recognized Moralltach and Beagalltach.  Moralltach was a  highly lethal sword belonging to Aengus mac Og, a sidhe king, which left no stroke or blow unfinished at the first trial. Aegus eventually gave to his foster-son Diarmuid Ua Duibhne along with a second sword of less power, the Beagalltach (Little Fury). Diarmuid is a source for Lancelot along with Cuchulainn and Naoise. All three were in love triangles, but Cuchulainn, the Hound was killed by an angry woman.

it may be just me but i don’t see that many parallels between reylo and nimulot other than just enemies-ish to lovers and dark and light. the storylines are completely different, especially since lancelot and nimue are going to physically meet when he’s on the fey’s side. so idek, make parallels if u want, but it’s not like they’re the exact same which is why i’ve noticed some ppl not like nimulot bc it isn’t the “complete copy of reylo in medieval times” some make it out to be,,,,,

Diarmuid Ua Duibhne

Irish mythology, a love triangle legend: Tóraigheacht Dhiarmada agus Ghráinne – in English "The Pursuit of Díarmuid and Gráinne" is a popular romance of a love triangle.

 Traditionally set: 2nd - 4th century, one of the Fianna in the Fenian Cycle. Also known as Diarmid O’Dyna (AKA Diarmuid of the Love Spot) is best known as the lover of Gráinne, the intended wife of Fianna leader Fionn mac Cumhaill in the legend The Pursuit of Diarmuid and Gráinne. Diarmuid was a skilled warrior and a well-liked  and valued member of the Fianna (small, semi-independent warrior bands) who single-handedly killed 3,400 warriors in a battle and saved Fionn and the Fianna. 

Fenian Cycle (Fiannaíocht; AKA Ossianic Cycle) (Narrator: In legend poet, warrioir of fianna, son of Fionn: Oisin) A body of prose and verse centering on the exploits of the mythical hero Fionn mac Cumhaill and his warriors the Fianna. The other cycles of Irish mythology: Myhological Cycle, Ulster Cycle, Fenian Cycle, and the Historical Cycle. This  cycle also contains stories about other famous Fianna members, including Diarmuid, Caílte, Oisín's son Oscar, and Fionn's enemy, Goll mac Morna. 

Weapons Diarmuid’s foster father and protector,  the Tuatha Dé Danaan god of love and creativity Aenghus Óg, owned a a deadly sword,  Móralltach or Nóralltach – the Great Fury and gave it to his foster son in addition to a sword named Beagaltach, the Little Fury. Diarmuid is also known to have wielded two spears,  Gáe Buidhe (Yellow Spear) and Gáe Dearg (Red Spear), which caused wounds that could not be healed. He used Gáe Dearg and Moralltach for adventures which were matters of life and death, and Gáe Buidhe and Beagalltach for lesser battles.

Magical Love Spot making him irresistible to women.  While hunting one night he met a woman who was the personification of youth. After sleeping with him she put a magical love spot on his forehead that caused any woman who looked at it to fall in love with him. 

Vicious curse  Diarmuid's father, Donn, was a warrior of the Fianna. At a dinner party, Donn, jealous of the attention given to the son of Aengus' steward, killed the steward's son when no one was looking. Aengus resurrected the steward's son in the form of a boar, but the steward required Fionn to find out the truth and, upon learning the truth, put a curse upon Diarmuid: He was to be killed by the boar, the steward's transformed son.
