Sword of Souls (Magic Sword)

The favored weapon of the evil Iyachtu Xvim, this infamous sword is a giant scimitar +3 that drains two life energy levels whenever it strikes a living opponent (no saving throw). The truth of its origins is lost in conflicting legends; it is known to be much heavier than most humans can comfortably use in battle (weighing about 30 pounds) and is of lawful evil alignment. Creatures of other alignments who touch the scimitar feel a sickening, wrenching pain (-1 on attack rolls and Dexterity ability score while in contact with the weapon). Further, they suffer a loss of 1d4 points per contact (or per round of continuous contact) if they are of any evil alignment, or a loss of 1d12 hp if they are not.
