Soul Devouring

  • When a soul is devoured:
    • the wielder gains an attack and damage bonus equal to 1/4 of the victim's HD (rounded down),
    • the wielder gains 1/2 of the victim's max HP (also rounded down) as temporary HP (lost first), and
    • the bonuses last a number of turns equal to level of the victim.
  • Devoured souls can't be resurrected.

GM Notes
  • Possesses speech and telepathy, in both common and Demonic.
  • At the end of a fight, roll a d20. If the number is a natural 20 or over the number of creatures the sword killed, nothing happens. If it's under, the wielder must attack the nearest friendly character, and then repeat this roll next round.
  • PCs killed by the blade must Save vs Death or have their souls devoured by the blade.
  • Devouring a soul disincarnates it, separating it from its body and preventing traditional resurrection.
