This sword is 30" long. The blade is leaf-shaped and about 23" long. The Hilt is about 7" long but about 2" of that is a cresent moon on the pommel. What kind of sword would you call this?

Leaf shaped blade is vague at best...what do you mean?

Like a shortsword, broadsword, long sword, two-handed sword that sort of thing. I guess kind of a game classification for this specific sword.

My hopes lie dashed,
Crushed from high above,
My dreams lie shattered, my heart broken,
A casulty on a battlefield called love.

is this the general idea of the shape?

Yes, but not as exaggerated... Is this large enough to be a broadsword or would it be a shortsword?

I would define it as "sharp."

It would be a short sword. Short swords have blades of about two feet according to my DM.

BK

Sounds like a short sword to me.
