Unique clerical magic weapons

[tetramorph]

I still want magic swords to be the real cream of the crop, but has anyone ever thought of doing something like this?

UNIQUE CLERICAL MAGIC WEAPONS

+1 mace or war-hammer unique clerical item 2:3
+2 unique 5:6
+3 only dwarven

Determine alignment: 2:3 law, otherwise chaos.

1:3 uniquely quested: Wisdom and Zeal both 12. Otherwise determine Wisdom and Zeal, 2d6 each.

Determine powers. Add Wisdom and Zeal and consult the following:

1-7 cure light wounds
8-9 above and cure disease
10-11 above and neutralize poison
12-13 above and cure serious wounds
14-15 above + 1 extraordinary
16-17 above + 2 extraordinary
18+ above + 3 extraordinary

Extraordinary powers
1. Bless
2. Remove curse
3. Locate object
4. Commune
5. Quest
6. True seeing

Influence checks as per magic swords except vs. wisdom + charisma less any HP reduction. Only clerics benefit from spell-like abilities

Yeah, I do, I have posted elsewhere that IMC the magical swords, maces and axes are all somewhat similar with intelligence and the chance of one or more powers somewhat similar to what you propose above. I extended that idea when I created two types of paladins, one that starts as fighter and one that starts as a cleric. (Paladins of the Mace and Paladins of the Sword).

Yes sir. I think of them more like religious relics though (i.e. Ark of the Covenant, reliquary with bones of a saint, etc.).

Sure, why not? I don't think I've ever handed out an intelligent hammer, but why not?
