Animated Weapon[edit]

This template turns an ordinary weapon into a menacing foe.

Animated weapons are mundane or magical weapons that have been animated through spells.

Creating an Animated Weapon[edit]

Animated Weapon is unique in that it is a template that must be applied to a melee weapon instead of a creature. The template is acquired through any of various magical effects.

Size and Type[edit]

Base weapon becomes a creature of the ConstructConstruct type.

An animated weapon gains base attack and base save bonuses as a construct, and has a racial bonus to saving throws equal to its magical enhancement bonus.

Animated weapons have no skill points, unless they are intelligent.

A one-handed weapon is two size categories smaller than any creature it is intended for. For a particular size creature, a light weapon is one size category smaller than a one-handed weapon, and a two-handed weapon is one size category larger than a one-handed weapon. For example, for a Medium creature, a light weapon is Diminutive, a one-handed weapon is Tiny, and a two-handed weapon is Small.

Hit Dice[edit]

An animated weapon has a number of Hit Dice depending on its quality and the magical enhancement bonus it has (if any), as per Table: Animated Weapon Statistics.

Speed[edit]

An animated weapon has a fly speed (in feet) of 40 + ten times its magical enhancement bonus, with perfect maneuverability.

Armor Class[edit]

An animated weapon has a natural armor bonus to AC equal to the hardness of its base material - 5 (minimum +0), as well as a shield bonus and a deflection bonus, both equal to its magical enhancement bonus (if any). It also gains a size bonus or penalty to AC (if any), depending on its effective size.

Attack[edit]

An animated weapon performs attacks like a weapon of its type does in the hands of a creature proficient in its use. The base damage of an attack by an animated weapon is equal to the base damage of the base weapon.

The attacks of an animated weapon are treated as attacks made with a manufactured weapon. Attacks by an animated weapon are considered magical (if the base weapon has an enhancement bonus of at least +1) or epic (if the base weapon has an enhancement bonus of +6). If the base weapon is made out of a material with special properties that bypass specific forms of damage reduction, such as adamantine, alchemical silver or cold iron, the animated weapon is also considered to have that quality.

If the base weapon has any sort of special enhancement that changes the effect of its attacks, the animated weapon has this quality as well. Examples are special enhancements that increase its damage (such as flaming, shock, collision, etc.) and effects that bypass certain types of defenses (such as holy or brilliant energy).

An animated weapon has the same space and reach that an appropriately sized creature would have when wielding the weapon. For example, an animated longsword occupies a 5-foot square, and has a 5-foot reach, even though it is effectively Tiny.

Full Attack[edit]

An animated weapon may make iterative attacks on a full attack action, provided it has a high enough base attack bonus. If the base weapon has a special enhancement that influences its behaviour on a full attack, such as speed, the animated weapon has this quality on a full action as well.

Special Attacks[edit]

An animated weapon has no extraordinary or supernatural abilities, except for those the base weapon has gained from special weapon enhancements or weapon crystalsMIC.

Special Qualities[edit]

An animated weapon has the usual construct traits, and furthermore gains the following:

Abilities[edit]

Strength and Dexterity equal to the value in Table: Animated Weapon Statistics, modified by the weapon's effective size. A mithral weapon has an additional +4 Dexterity, and an adamantine weapon has an additional +6 Strength.

Being a construct, an animated weapon has no Constitution or Intelligence score.

An animated weapon has a Wisdom score equal to 10 + twice its magical enhancement bonus, and a Charisma of 1.

Animated weapons that are intelligent items retain the mental ability scores of the base weapon.

Skills[edit]

An animated weapon has a +8 racial bonus to Tumble checks.

Feats[edit]

An animated weapon gains Eiji Weapon Focus in the appropriate weapon type as a bonus feat. Furthermore, it also gains Weapon Finesse as a bonus feat if light.

An animated weapon does not gain any racial feats unless it is an intelligent item.

Environment[edit]

Any.

Organization[edit]

Any.

Challenge Rating[edit]

1 (mundane), 2 (masterwork), enhancement bonus×3 (magical).

Mithral: ×2 or +2, whichever is lower.

Adamantine: ×3 or +3, whichever is lower.

Special Weapon Quality: + half the cumulative enhancement bonus of all special weapon qualities, rounded up.

Treasure[edit]

The base weapon.

Alignment[edit]

Always neutral.

Animated Weapon Table[edit]

  1. Does not include bonus hit points due to size, if any.
  2. A magic weapon gains additional hit points per HD equal to its
    enhancement bonus.
  3. Add a +4 size bonus to Strength and a -2 size penalty to Dexterity
    for every size category the animated weapon has above Tiny, or a
    -2 size penalty to Strength and a +2 size bonus to Dexterity for
    every size category below Tiny.
