Twinkle

""It was forged in the magic of the powers that all the surface elves hold dear," said Malchor. "Of the stars and the moon and the mysteries of their souls. You deserve it, Drizzt Do'Urden, and it will serve you well.""

- R.A. Salvatore, The Halfling's Gem

Twinkle is Drizzt Do'Urden's left handed defensive scimitar forged by the elves of old.

History
In 1356 DR, the blade was given to Drizzt by Malchor Harpell when the Companions of the Hall were chasing Artemis Entreri after he had kidnapped Regis.

Description
Like all magical weapons, this +2 defending scimitar has an enchantment that makes the blade sharper and the weapon more likely to strike true. This enchantment can be diverted in order to make the wielder better at parrying an opponent's blow. Twinkle has a star-cut azure sapphire on its pommel and when it detects danger nearby it softly glows blue. It is partially empathic and can impart weak, base emotions upon its wielder.
