147) Posted in Error. When the owner of this sword is sleeping, this sword will fly away and post 'adventurers wanted' posters all over town in the owners name. It will then fly back. If the owner discovers the posters the sword will begin to whistle in a very suspicous manner.

Why a mace you ask? Get thumped on the head by one, YOU might forget your name! ;P

156) Soul-Stealing
Once per week, the sword may absorb the soul of a living creature slain by it (if the creature has a soul). If it does so, it gains the alignment of the creature slain.
As a full round action, the wielder may make an attack with the sword with a bonus to hit and damage equal to the hit dice of the slain creature. Doing so empties the soul from the blade.
