(perfect),  fly 900 (clumsy)Armor Class: 14 (+5 Dex, -1 Size) touch 14, flat-footed 14Base Attack/Grapple: +20/+26Attack: Cut +30 melee (3d6+15/19-20) and Pommel +28 melee (1d10+3)Full Attack: Cut +30/+25/+20/+15 melee (3d6+15/19-20) and Pommel +28/+23/+18 melee (1d10+3)Space/Reach: 10 ft./5 ft.Special Attacks: Deadly Charge, I'll GetchaSpecial Qualities: Hardness 23, Magic SightSaves: Fort +12, Ref +11, Will +8Abilities: Str 23, Dex 21, Con -, Int 14, Wis 14, Cha 6Skills: -Feats: Weapon Focus (Itself), Greater Weapon Focus (Itself), Greater Weapon Specialization (Itself), Weapon Specialization (Itself), Power Attack, Cleave, Great Cleave, Improved Sunder, Improved Bull RushDeadly Charge: Due to it's great speed, a Sword Berserk deals an additional 4d12 points of damage on a charge attack.I'll Getcha A Sword Berserk can use discern location as a supernatural ability at will to detect anyone who it was planning to kill and got away from it.Magic Sight: A Sword Berserk can perceive the location of all living (and undead) creatures within 120 feet.  Especially elves.  Damn those elves!Only an orc with 10 ranks in Craft (Weaponsmith) or similar skills and the feats Craft Construct and Craft Magic Arms and Armor can repair a damaged Sword Berserk, which takes one day, 250 experience points, and 5000 gp worth of ensorceled iron per 10 hit points.As mentioned earlier, it's one thing to START this thing's fury.  Stopping it is a whole other bag. o.oIt's worth noting that on a power attack, this thing deals 65 damage per hit, on average.  Easily enough to cut through all aforementioned things that it cuts through...</blockquote>
