Blade of Red Birth is a unique dagger in Dragon Age II.

Acquisition

• Looted from a chest during the quest The Deep Roads Expedition. The chest is at the feet of a Paragon statue just before the quest's first ogre fight.

Notes

• If the player casts Elemental Weapons or installs a weapon rune that adds elemental damage (including physical from a Rune of Impact), the visual effect from this weapon's default +4 fire damage will be overwritten in the floating damage values and replaced with one of the aforementioned effects, with an installed rune's damage taking precedence over both. It is unclear if this affects the actual damage of the weapon. A Rune of Striking, however, does not trigger this visual overwrite.
