Intelligent Item Format


Product Discussion


I'm creating an intelligent weapon and want to put it in the official format used in the PF AP books.

Does anyone know where I can find an intelligent item entry in one of the APs?

In ...:
Kingmaker,

There is ...:
An intelligent sword called Briar.

The way they treat it as such a huge event (it gets over a page of write-up), I suspect that there will not be any intelligent items listed with just a stat block. Not that I disagree; I think intelligent items, like artifacts, should be pretty singular events.

However in the module ...:
Tomb of the Iron Medusa,

There is ...:
an artifact that would probably make a really good template for you:

Infensus Mucro (Major Artifact)
Aura moderate transmutation; CL 20th
Construction
Alignment LE; Ego 33
Int 18, Wis 19, Cha 20
Communication empathy
Lesser Powers bestow curse 3/day (DC 19), spell immunity 1/day (CL 17th)
Special Purpose defend the servants and interests of Asmodeus; Dedicated Power wielder gains fire immunity and the ability to cast repulsion 1/day (CL 17th)
Description
This elegantly wrought +3 speed longsword remains pristine despite [spoiler omitted]. Given to X by an agent of Asmodeus in return for the [person]'s (initially) secret allegiance to the arch fiend, this weapon carries within it the cruel soul of a long-dead high priest of Asmodeus. The weapon begins in a state of dormancy, at which point all of its intelligent weapon powers are unavailable, and it functions as nothing more than a +3 speed longsword. See the description of area Y for details on how the sword can be awakened.
Destruction
To destroy the weapon, you must immerse it in a bath of Asmodeus’s tears.

There's also one in Night of Frozen Shadows, part 2 of Jade Regent.

Also in:

Spoiler:
Book 3 or 4 of Serpent's Skull there is an intelligent artifact sword related to the Red Mantis

Which does have a small stat block in addition to a little write-up
