BBS RPG (possibly similar to LORD) - can't recall the title

I've been trying to remember an old BBS game that's on the tip of my
tongue but I can't quite remember or my memories of this game have
been mixed with Legend of the Red Dragon, which is throwing me off the
scent.

It could be Blademaster or The Pit, but after googling, I couldn't
find a proper weapons list.

I recall the gameplay being essentially LORD - so that's an issue -
but my main memory is that a common weapon was the halberd and if you
really saved up your coins you could get the "hyacinth sword"
(possibly hyacinth blade?). These two weapons stand out to me as at
the time I had to look up what hyacinth and halberd meant.

Does this by chance ring any bells? Thanks in advance.

Although I found gameplay and don't see the hyacinth in the weapons
list: https://youtu.be/nRMibRr6ZUM?t=1461

Maybe I was thinking of Hyankinthos Secret? I could have sworn it was
hyacinth blade or sword - but I think it was usurper as I remember the
name and actually playing that quite a bit.

Are you familiar with Bazooka of the Red Dragon?

It is a parody.

I vaguely recall but it’s been a long time and apparently I was more
of a usurper guy than LoRD.
