Mace of St. Cuthbert (Magic Mace)

: For other Mace of St. Cuthbert, see Mace of St. Cuthbert.
The mace of St. Cuthbert is a very holy relic of the times of St. Cuthbert. Usable only by good priests, its power is largely unknown ( +5 on attack and damage rolls) and it is hard to use. It also has the following abilities and penalties:
* Levitation
* Fire resistance
* Dispel magic four times per day
* Death spell twice per day
This artifact (which appears as some type of weapon) has no power whatever until it is used to kill a certain, predetermined type of monster (example: a vampire). Once the specified creature is killed with the relic, it immediately gains all of its powers. However, whenever another certain, predetermined type of monster is sighted (example: a troll), the artifact compels the user to attack and slay the monster, and when this is completed, the artifact loses all of its powers until another monster of the same type as first mentioned (the vampire) is killed.
