There are a few that I know of and I'll post my writeups here, but if anyone has some suggestions, please let me know.As a note: The books I have available (the ones with item abilities and spells) are (in spoiler block for space reasons <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />):  [sblock]Arms and Equipment Guide, Book of Erotic Fantasy, Book of Exalted Deeds, Book of Vile Darkness, Complete Divine, Complete Warrior, Draconomicon, DMG, Dungeon Master's Guide II, Eberron Campaign Setting, Expanded Psionics Handbook, Faiths and Pantheons, Forgotten realms Campaign Setting, Magic of Faerun, Oriental Adventures, Player's Guide to Faerun, Player's Handbook, Races of Faerun, Savage Species, Unearthed Arcana plus the 3.0 class books and some others I've forgotten.Wow that's a long list.[/sblock]Excalibur. The Sword in the Stone.Alignment LGInt 12Wis 16Cha 20Ego +13Speech (Common, Sylvan, Celestial)Special Purpose: to rule JustlySpecial Purpose Power: Excalibur may cast Zone of Truth. (this is kindo a weak ability. I was considering Dictum, but think that is too strong and too combat oriented.)Excalibur has 10 ranks in Sense Motive and Diplomacy.In all forms, Excalibur does not detect as magical.False Excalibur (Artifact) - Excalibur with a non-magic blade. Treat as a +1 Holy Bastard Sword. Excalibur's Ego is 16. On the first confirmed critical hit, the blade shatters.Lesser Excalibur (Artifact) - Excalibur's time in the stone has weakened it. Treat as a +2 Keen, Holy, Adamantine Bastard Sword, Excalibur may detect evil or chaos at will. Excalibur's Ego is 20. On the first confirmed critical hit, the blade shatters.True Excalibur (Artifact) - The Lady of the Lake has reforged Excalibur. Excalibur is treated as +5 Holy, Keen Bastard Sword. Exalibur is indestructable and ignores all damage reduction and hardness (treat as 2 greater powers). Excalibur can now cast Dictum as an additional special purpose power. Excalibur's Ego is now 29. Slaying a [Good] creature shatters Excalibur's blade. Should this happen, the wielder (or a potential wielder) must have an Atonement spell cast on them and the balde. Then they may request that The Lady of the Lake reforge the blade.Excalibur should have a few miscelaneous utility powers. I had considered Righteous ability but I can't see why anyone would use it. (detect evil at will and +2 hit and damage verus evil creatures for a +4 equivelant bonus)Scabbard of Life. The True Scabbard of Excalibur.(Artifact)The possessor of the scabbard has Fast Healing 2 and Regeneration. If the wielder already has Fast Healing, add the scabbard's value to the creature's. The wielder is also immune to energy drain, ability damage, and Death effects. Once per week the scabbard can cast True Ressurection on the wielder. This last ability triggers whenever the wielder dies, if the week's usage is available. The wielder is restored with full hit points. In addition, the scabbard itself is immune to damage and can alter it's shape to hold any weapon.Lady of the LakeThe Lady of the Lake appears as a beautiful elf composed of purest water, dressed in exquisite finery. While submerged in water, The Lady is more than invisible and cannot be percieved by non-deific senses. The Lady can walk on the surface of the water or swim beneath it at will. The Lady never leaves the water.Alternate description: The Lady of the Lake appears as a beautiful elf dressed in silvery armor under exquisite finery. While submerged in water, The Lady assumes a form of purest water and is more than invisible and cannot be percieved by non-deific senses. The Lady can walk on the surface of the water or swim beneath it at will. The Lady never leaves the water.Female Quasi-Deity (Divine Rank 0)Artificer 20 Medium Fey (Aquatic, Water, Extraplanar);</blockquote>
