History and who has it

  • Made before recorded history.
  • At game start: the holder of Sunni Caliphate — needs The Royal Court.

How it is made

The game creates it with the scripted effect create_artifact_spear_of_the_prophet_effect. In the console (how to open it), this gives it to the character you play:

effect create_artifact_spear_of_the_prophet_effect = { OWNER = root }

Built from the effect's file; not run in the game by us.
