I'd think it would work like teleport object, in which case a creature "attending" the katana could prevent it teleporting away with a Will save.

That doesn't seem a very desirable feature to build into a magical weapon's ability to teleport back to its owner. It's ego is pretty low, so it'd mean the "come back sword!" power is virtually useless as soon as someone with a half-decent willpower picks it up.

Only once they have an ego struggle, right? I guess the point to me is that there needs to be some mechanism for a PC to "steal" it, even if they don't realize they haven't completely destroyed the General.
By the way, don't forget to put Rejuvenation in the General's working draft.

Well they'd only have to touch the sword and disagree with it to have an ego challenge, and as previously mentioned its ego won't be that high, which means it's not that much of a challenge.
While I don't object to the principle that they ought to be able to steal it, I'm also not that keen on making it easy.
Perhaps it involves a command word either use the power or "tune" the crimson katana to a new master, so they have to research or identify the sword to master the teleport-return power?
Oops!
I thought it had been left in when I copy-pasted the Seven Sword I used as a template.
Never mind, it's a simple matter to add it with the next update.

Something along those lines would be fine by me.
Maybe they just need to meditate in front of it for a few hours - that doesn't seem terribly "chaotic evil" but would jibe with a clichéd western view of Japan, which is basically what the part of Kara-Tur the adventure is set in is!
