According to Lori: "..Paladin sword flames come in different colors, not unlike Lightsabers. Compassion is blue, Honor is yellow, and Justice is red. After some discussion she agreed that honor should be blue as stated in QFG3 and compassion red. Which would leave yellow to be justice. |

This article or section contains information from Lori and Corey Cole’s (Transolar Games) extended Hero Universe (Hero-U Canon and/or Apocrypha).
Details may include information from Hero-U and Summer Daze, other published sources (pre-QFG & later) including books, comics, documentation and DnD supplements. It may also contain information from unreleased novels (and games), notes, concept materials, and developmental ideas from Quest for Glory outside of the original series canon.
Paladin swords are the preferred weapons of paladins (though some may use other kinds of weapons as well).
Background
With their WILL they are capable of energizing the weapons with fire or lightning/electricity.[1] The color of the energy depends on the virtues that the Paladin is projecting into his weapon. Not any old weapon can be used project power, and paladin weapons are usually useless in the hands of non-Paladins (unless another Paladin wills the flames or energy into them from a distance).
Most Paladin swords start out as ordinary weapons. It is through the power of the Paladin's inner strength, his beliefs, and his (or her) use in the righteous cause that transforms the weapon into something so much more. They are reforged by the fires of faith.
Behind the scenes
According to Lori: "..Paladin sword flames come in different colors, not unlike Lightsabers. Compassion is blue, Honor is yellow, and Justice is red. After some discussion she agreed that honor should be blue as stated in QFG3 and compassion red. Which would leave yellow to be justice.
Moira wields yellow-orange flame when battling the wraith with some reddish highlights in the painting.
Rakeesh and Hero wield red/yellow in QFG2, and the blue flames of honor in later games.
