A once nameless blade made of a fantastic alloy used to slay a a Prideful Archdemon. The act of slaying the beast crippled it wielder and permanently melted her weapon into a rod of blackened metal. The demon's fierce spirit forever transformed the blade, melding with the weapon's own magic to form a powerful but dangerous artifact. The Archdemon's Ember is a priceless artifact but has an estimated worth of 93,000 gp, It can be destroyed by thrusting fully in the ices on top of Mount Celestia and being left to cool down for an entire decade.
The Archdemon's Ember is a +5 [[Pure Elemental (3.5e Equipment)|Pure Fire]] [[SRD:Flaming Burst|Flaming Burst]] [[Overheat (3.5e Equipment)|Overheat]] [[SRD:FalchionBastard Sword|FalchionBastard Sword]] that deal bludgeoning damage. It is always extremely hot, dealing an additional 10 points of fire damage on every hit. The drawback is that the weapon deal 1d6 damage that cannot be reduced or resisted to the wielder each round from the demon's pride and burning grip.
If the wielder has slain a demon with a CR of 20 or higher she may ignite it as a standard action. Once ignited the Archdemon's Ember is shrouded in flame, increasing the fire damage dealt by the sword from +10 to +20 and granting the Archedmon's Ember Reach. Unlike most weapons with reach it can still be used to strike adjacent targets.
