The exquisite engravings on her exotic silver plated Colt .45 handgun depicted runes and sigils of the numerous deities to which she paid tribute. Its trigger and hammer are flawlessly polished - The butt resembling a small sledge hammer.

Thirteen handcrafted .45 caliber hollow point silver bullets lay stacked inside the magazine and chamber - A holy number of her order. Each one shining in the light of the Moon. Each one crafted by the hands of Warlocks. Each one equally blessed by the grace of the Mother Goddess - Holy symbols, wielded by a true believer.

It was a weapon designed for one thing -Killing Vampires and other things which go "bump" in the night. Happily, its mahogany patina had proved remarkably resilient to years of driving stakes into the corrupted hearts of the living dead.
