Flame of the North

Two-Handed Sword ​ +2, which is +4 against all creatures of chaotic evil alignment​ Human Forged Steel, Adamantine (Praetorian Steel) Owned by Groaner ​Discovered in Eistadt​ Undermountain​ If any being not of chaotic good alignment touches the sword, it seems to spit blue fire and the being takes 3d4 hp of electrical damage. After its initial-contact damage, the sword does no more harm to a non-chaotic good being, but in such hands it is -3 on all attack and damage rolls.​ ​The blade is treated to be everbright: it cannot rust, tarnish, or be stained or harmed by acid, blood, flames, or other substances.​ ​Whenever any spell is cast on someone holding the drawn blade, there is a 10% chance that the spell will be reflected back on its source. This effect can happen regardless of the will of the sword-wielder.​ All electrical attacks and magic missiles cast at the sword-wielder are absorbed harmlessly by the sword, and used to recharge its powers.​ ​In the hands of a chaotic good being, the sword blazes constantly with blue-white flames while drawn. These flames give light equal to a faerie fire, but the wielder does not incur the standard combat disadvantages of that spell. The flames cannot be quelled except by breaking the blade. They are illusory, and cannot heat or ignite anything.​ ​Whenever the Flame is drawn and in the hands of a chaotic good being, and any chaotic evil being comes within 20 of the sword, the sword-wielder hears an inner voice, endlessly whispering, Strike! Strike!...Strike! This effect happens regardless of any magical defenses that cloak or confuse the reading of true alignment; the sword infallibly detects the presence of chaotic evil beings within its range. The sword has no intelligence, ego, or coercive powers beyond this verbal urging.​
