*checks again, finds same passage in SRD*
Weird. That is worded so badly it hurts. I think the intent is still to allow the creator to choose powers/purpose/etc.
Step 1)
"Time and creation cost are based on the normal item creation rules, with the market price values on Table: Item Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma, and Capabilities treated as additions to time, gp cost, and XP cost."
[As I understand this, determining the item's capabilities include determining it's powers & special purpose.]
Step 2)
"The item’s alignment is the same as its creator’s."
[ok, no problem there]
Step 3)
"Determine other features randomly, following the guidelines in the relevant section."
[Translation: If you're making an intelligent weapon, go look in the weapon section for weapon abilities. If you're making an intelligent staff, go look in the staff section for staff abilities. Etc]

Yeah, that's probably it, but I'm a greedy bastard so I had to try. 
But it is worded completely horribly.
So, now to the next question: Does the caster need any preqruisite spells? I mean, in theory a wizard can create a sword that does Bless and True Resurrection (ooh)
...
And one bugbear keeps his mouth shut in the back row!

Hmmmm, no not really D&D to me is about adventures not truing a profit.Xael said:What!? You mean you wouldn't like unlimited source of 500% or so profit?!
Though that could be a great skill for a cohort though.

With regards to intelligent item creation, CL 15 and the applicable feat is in addition to the various pre-req spells. Powers aren't free or rolled. The creator selects the powers. Wish, Limited Wish, Awaken, or Miracle might also be a useful spell to have available.
The vampires probably were unable to enter the Shrine of Lolth (but other undead and non-undead would have been able to enter). The vampires had serious issues with both the inn and the Temple of Tyr in Dagger Falls.

You know the thing I find the humorous about item creation is how many in game days have we done 4 or so?
And creating at item takes how long?
Maybe your grandchild will be able to use it.
