after you get gold brand you hear...voices..only if you equip it..and they can randomly appeer...

the voice says things like

i hunger for blood..,

i want to burn flesh....

i want to cut througth guts....

i want you to use me....

release me......

i want the souls of the inocennt...

a week after getting the sword a guy will come and ask you to go to a tempel...there you meet a rouge priest of bohetia who tells you that the guy who was supossed to protect the dragons with this sword was a altmoran once known as " the golden knight"

he was the strongest knight at the time and belonged to the dragon cult and was a guardians of the dov. even if he was strong he had trouble protecting the dragons and made a deal with bohetia...she/he gives him the sword and hed need to kill a few people in horrible manners....after that the sword made him a power-hungry mad man and he "killed" 2 dragons....the cult was following him and he prayed to bohetian to make him invincible...so she/he "hide" him into the sword...making it stronger

now you have 4 options...

1.go and keep the sword...

2: kill the priest and bohetia will put him into the sword making it stronger and the voice stops...

3: do a ritual which will actully make the golden kniht come out of the sword and youd have to kill him and you destroyed goldbrand...but youl get his golden armor...

4. give the priest the sword..he will turn it into eliotbrand...( which is silver)....it will do less damage..but it will do more mackika damage.... Some parts of this are a little iffy, but it's a fairly good idea, with polishing. First iffy: Goldbrand does not work like the Ebony Blade. Second iffy: Destroying Goldbrand would be something like destroying a museum exhibit in real life. I mean, obviously Goldbrand sees a lot more combat than museum exhibits [insert Night at the Museum joke here], but the historical impact would be the same. Furthermore, there's no evidence that the sword actually has any constructional ties to Boethiah. It is hers, I suppose, but it's not like, say, the Daedric staves, or even the Rueful Axe. It's said to have been created by dragons, not Boethiah. How it came to Boethiah is a mystery. Furthermore, given the sword's recent history, it seems less likely that it would come to the BoJ in a temple quest and more likely that it might show up in the emperor's family. Which, incidentally, could lead into a cool Boethiah quest. Possibly involving the Arena. YES, the Imperial City Arena. And the current Emperor. The idea being that you want to impress the Emperor, and you want to impress Boethiah. You can fail to impress one or the other - say, by failing to kill your final opponent, you displease Boethiah, and she'll say you fought well, but not well enough, or something, and take away Goldbrand, but the Emperor will give you compensation in the form of...oh, I don't know. A title, maybe. A minor one. Or, more probably, gold. Or a weapon. Weapons are good. Or if you displease the Emperor but please Boethiah, by slaughtering everybody without waiting for permission from the top box, Boethiah defends you from the Emperor's displeasure effortlessly and then decides that you have earned Goldbrand. Or, you can please both of them, by slaughtering everybody and waiting for permission from the top box, and get either Goldbrand and some gold/a title, or the Emperor's weapon reward and some kind of blessing. Although the ancient Dragon Cult knight is still begging to be somehow involved. Perhaps that's the blessing; you can summon the Dragon Cult knight. Perhaps Boethiah acquired Goldbrand as an artifact because the knight turned away from the Dragon Cult, as you said, and went off on his own and offered his soul to Boethiah because he had taken such a joy in killing. And then when you summon him, he's a spectral red-and-gold warrior with dragonbone and ebony armor, and of course a lessened, spectral version of Goldbrand, and he constantly makes comments about how he can't wait for the blood to start flowing. i agree with that idea...but there are points i dont really agree on like: rigth the sword can be destroyed but i mean destroyed like how umbra got destroyed...or how martin destroys it, an i still wish for....omg...i gotz an idea...how about if you summon the golden knight 5 times he will tell you where to find his grave and you can get his armor...the reason is..i like golden armor...gold is ma favorit color...
