Special Traits

• Antimagic Susceptibility. The sentient sword is incapacitated while in an area of antimagic, such as an antimagic field. If targeted by a dispel magic spell, the sword must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against the caster’s spell save DC, or fall unconscious for 1 minute.
• Artifact Weakness. When hit by the forge hammer it was forged with, the sentient sword loses all damage immunities, except immunity to poison and psychic damage, for 1 minute.
• False Appearance. While the sentient sword remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a normal sword of its kind.
• Legendary Resistance (3/Day). If the sentient sword fails a saving throw, it can choose to succeed instead.

Actions

• Multiattack. The sentient sword makes three longsword attacks.
• Longsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) slashing damage. The sentient sword scores a critical hit on a d20 roll of 19 or 20, instead of only 20.

Legendary Actions

The sentient sword can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time, and only at the end of another creature’s turn. The sword regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.

• Attack. The sentient sword makes one longsword attack.
• Jab (Costs 2 Actions). The sentient sword moves up to its fly speed in a straight line. It can make a longsword attack at the end of this movement. If the attack hits, it deals an additional 7 (2d6) slashing damage for every 10 feet moved.
