A siren, one of the fair maidens who sing sailors to thier doom, fell prey to her own profession. She fell in love with a handsome pirate, whom she would often visit in her youth. As not to allert her siblings, she would make him be silent as they courted. And thier love was a beautiful thing. That is, until her sisters found them together. He had his tongue ripped out as fitting punishment, and she was taken far away, to the ends of the oceans, on a rocky precipace that jutted out and up from the edge of the world, where she was chained, and her eyes were ripped from thier sockets, to keep her from viewing any man, ever again.She sang melencholy dirges for many months and years, but as the years passed she forgot most of her love, and returned to the pleasant songs she had sung in her youth.Meanwhile, the daring young pirate survived his ill fate, drifting ashore on an island. He was found by the local inhabitants and nursed to health. After many months of help, he built a boat and set out to find her love.It took him years, but finally he came to the ends of the earth. But alas, she could not see him, and he could not call out to her to stop singing, and as he drew close he fell under the siren's song. So focused on his love that he did not notice his boat crash onto her island. Nor did he notice its pieces and himself slip to the side and fall off the edge of the earth. His eyes were trained steadily on her, his empty mouth silently screaming her name as he fell through the mists, never to be seen again.As the siren made her way around the island, singing, she came upon the sailor's sword, which had accidentally fallen ashore when the boat crashed. Holding it, she knew what must have happened.And so she took her own life in grief, letting out a beautiful scream of pure sorrow as she plunged the rapier into her chest. (Years later it was found by a group of saugin on a mission to survey the ends of the oceans, who brought it back to thier Shell City)And from that final forlorn act, the sword gained its power. The thundering roar it makes when it strikes with a critical hit is not the normal primal "I'M ANGRY!" scream, but instead it is the siren's final song, her sorrowful scream.In addition, the sword provides a +4 bonus to saves against effects related to sound, including a Harpy or Siren's Captivating Song, to the user and any ally within 30 ft. The Siren's Song achieves this bonus by singing a beautiful song which focuses the user's (and his ally's) mind(s) on the task at hand, whatever that may be.Finally, it can cast sound burst, as a 4th level bard, once per day, the burst being the siren's mournful screams. The command word is not so much a word, as the user must think melencholy, sad thoughts to activate it. (same amount of time as a standard command word, just without speaking)---------Requirements: 9th level caster, Must be able to cast sound burst, must have personally encountered a Siren and heard its song (but not neccessarally fail the Will save involved)Price:Masterwork Rapier: 320 gp+3 bonus = 18000 gp+4 save bonus = 8000 gpSound Burst 1/day (command word) = 5760 gp=32080 gp</blockquote>
