Joyeuse (Magic Sword)

Joyeuse (French for joyous) is the great sword that Charlemagne wielded. It took the smith Gallas three years to forge this powerful weapon. It is a bastard sword +4 with the ability to cast a permanent version of curse (the reverse of bless). When an opponent is struck by this sword, a successful saving throw vs. spell (at -4) must be made or the victim suffers a permanent -1 to all attack rolls and saving throws. To remove a single 1 penalty, the wielder must be subjected to a remove curse spell. A remove curse is required for each 1 curse inflicted by this sword.
