Safekeeper

the blade of defense


summary/powers: This blade desires nothing more than to keep its wielder safe from harm, an odd purpose for a weapon. Nevertheless, this is its appointed task, and accordingly, the sword is a +5 defender. It also detects enemies within 1000', traps within 100', and grants its bearer true seeing upon command. While the sword is held, its bearer cannot be paralyzed, petrified, stunned, or similarly immobilized. Safekeeper can never be removed from its wielder's hand until danger has passed.

special drawbacks: The sword must remain within 10' of its owner at all times - no exceptions - or else it vanishes.

method of destruction: Must be taken, by a maiden riding a roc, to the Sky Fortress and then cast down into the world below.
