Bloodthirst is a One-Handed Melee Weapon found in Baldur's Gate 3.

"The Lord of Murder wasn't always a lord. He was once just a petty killer. When Bhaal first drew blood in a Baldurian back-alley, it dropped to the ground and lingered. When he ascended, this dried blood-drop grew, warped - and became sharp.".
