[QUOTE="ARandomGod, post: 2781666, member: 17296"] In one of my favorite book/series (The Renshai Chronicles), a main character gets a sword called "Balance", which I would translate into being a Lawful/axiomatic weapon (Good and evil were lesser alignments in the stories world-view). I can also easily see a weapon designed to balance good and evil. I can see other reasons to allow it (or not allow it) than simply that the rules don't say it's allowed/not allowed. And those other reasons are all Flavor. And it's a good flavor. Go ahead, try some. Edit: Now, take that "anarchic, axiomatic, holy, unholy weapon", add magebane (for fun), and of course it's got to be +1, and put that in the first adventure of a new group. There's nothing like giving a level one character a +10 weapon for some real action. It's best if the weapon is found in someplace long-forgotten, of course. Preferably someplace that's so obscure even most bards don't know about the weapon anymore. PS, don't let them get it ID's at the local mage, because you KNOW that guy would steal it. Even if he is LG. There are lawful ways to steal an item. [/QUOTE]
