Chaos Sword
This blade of this amazing katana appears to be made of a purple crystalline material, yet is harder than any known metal. Its golden hilt suggests its grand power. As you pick it up, you find that you are light on your feet and more nimble in your movements.
The Chaos Sword is one of the seven legendary Chaos Weapons, made by the Chaos Emeralds to assist heroes. Despite the name, they are usable by characters of any good alignment. (Neutral characters will find the Chaos Weapons slipping out of their hands, and evil characters will just get blasted away.) Each of the Chaos Emeralds controls a pair of attributes, and their corresponding Chaos Weapons share those attributes. The Chaos Sword was borne of the purple Chaos Emerald, and its attributes are time and darkness.
The Chaos Sword works best in the hands of a paladin, fighter, or time walker. The abilities of the Chaos Sword stack with the abilities of the time walker wherever they overlap, enabling the time walker to get even more use out of his abilities. The paladin will enjoy the Charisma, Wisdom, and Strength boosts, while the fighter will find this weapon extremely useful on the front lines (he'll likely appreciate the Dexterity boost, as will a ranger).
Abilities of the Chaos Sword
Like all major artifacts, the Chaos Sword is indestructible.
The Chaos Sword's abilities are extremely potent; using it in a low-level campaign is not recommended. Furthermore, the Chaos Weapons only appear to heroes who will need to make use of their power; don't give the PCs any of the Chaos Weapons unless the challenges they're about to face would be way out of their league otherwise!
The following abilities work while the Chaos Sword is wielded:
- +10 enhancement bonus
- +5 enhancement bonus to Dexterity
- +4 enhancement bonus to Charisma
- +3 enhancement bonus to Strength
- +10 ft. bonus to all movement speeds
- Ability to exit the flow of time, just like a time walker, 5 times per day, gaining +8 Dexterity (in addition to the enhancement bonus already provided), +8 Wisdom, and the ability to reroll any die once per round for a number of rounds equal to 4 + your (newly improved) Wisdom bonus.
- Fast healing/3
- Delaying strike (works the same way as the time walker's delaying strike)
- Temporal strike (works the same way as the time walker's temporal strike)
- The Chaos Sword has 50 charges, which renew themselves at every new dawn. These charges are used for the Chaos Sword's spell-like abilities. The Chaos Sword's caster level is 30, but you may use your own caster level instead if it is higher. Any spell-like abilities which mimic psionic powers cannot be augmented. With the Chaos Sword in hand, you can use these abilities:
- True Strike: 1 charge/use
- Expeditious Retreat: 1 charge/use
- Time Wave: 1 charge/use
- Time Shield: 2 charges/use
- Haste: 3 charges/use
- Time Hop: 4 charges/use
- Second Chance: 5 charges/use
- Temporal Acceleration: 6 charges/use
- Contingency: 6 charges/use
- Temporal Stasis: 8 charges/use
- Time Regression: 9 charges/use
- Time Stop: 9 charges/use
- Safe Time: 10 charges/use
- Time Duplicate: 10 charges/use
