Scather (minor artifact): Scather is one of nine swords of answering, powerful magic bastard swords created by Kelanen to represent the nine sacred styles of swordplay, each of which corresponds to one of the nine alignments.  Each of the swords has a different-colored 10,000-gp gem set in its pommel.

                All of the swords of answering have a unique alignment; Scather is neutral evil.  A character whose alignment matches neither of a sword of answering’s alignment components takes 1d6 points of damage per round the sword is wielded, and must make a successful Fortitude saving throw (DC 25) each round or be stunned for 1d10 rounds.  A character whose alignment matches one of a sword of answering’s alignment components takes only 1d3 points of damage per round and must make a successful Fortitude saving throw (DC 25) each round or become nauseated.  A character whose alignment matches the sword’s can wield it without worry.

                A sword of answering is a +3 keen bastard sword.  On a successful critical hit, the sword’s enhancement bonus increases to +4, and it does an additional 2d6 points of damage.  The wielder of a sword of answering can make an attack of opportunity against any creature that successfully damages him with a weapon, as long as the target is in reach and the attack of opportunity is made with the sword of answering.  This ability does not increase the number of attacks of opportunity a character can make in a round.
