Sword of Azor'alq (Magic Sword)

The sword of Azor'alq is a long sword +4. It has an Intelligence of 17 and an Ego of 21. It is aligned neutral good, and has the special purpose of slaying evil other planar beings. Any such being struck by it must make a saving throw vs. spell or be disintegrated.
The sword speaks Elf, as well as communicating telepathically with its possessor. It can detect evil in a 20' radius, and detect invisible objects in a 10' radius. Once a day it allows the possessor to fly, at a rate of 40 yards per round, for up to an hour.
The sword is very proud, and does not wish to serve anyone who is not an important baron or king. It also expects its owner to provide it with a new scabbard, with many gems fixed to it. In general, the sword thinks it is in charge of any owner, and, given its Intelligence and Ego; it may well be. If the sword is in control, it will compel its owner to seek out and destroy powerful other planar beings of evil alignment. The sword especially bates fiends of all sorts, and the owner may soon find himself on a quest in another plane, if the sword has its way.
The sword retains all of its powers on any plane, although on the lower planes, the detect evil power is neutralized by the overwhelming evil of the plane. Any randomly encountered fiend will have a 10% chance of having seen or heard of the sword of Azor'alq, and will seek to destroy the possessor and take the sword.
