The Were Bane is a short sword in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
Characteristics[]
The Were Bane is intended to be used as a were-buster. It is a short sword similar to a purple Rapier. It is dropped by the Hunting Girl (first found in the Royal Chapel) and has the same "Flurry of Thrusts" special attack that she is able to do and that the Rapier has.
The description says that it is effective against werebeasts, but this would not be too terribly useful, since the only werebeasts are the Werewolf and possibly the Wereskeleton or the Minotaur. It actually does not deal any extra damage to any of these creatures, which could be the result of a programming error.
This weapon is the second and last of the one-handed rapiers found in the game.
