Yeah It was
[looks away ashamed]
BTW
I took the oppertunity to slightly adjust Jaize story


Jaize, Long Sword +4
This was the weapon of the necromancer famed adventurer Caecilius Rikardo T'Aranaxz High Priest of the Order of the Holy Flame. Legend states that Rikard (as he liked to be called) was adventuring in the Snowflake Mountains east of Tethyr when he came upon a Temple of Mystra being despoiled by a lich.

The lich was none other than Rikard's ancient enemy the Hell Lich Wah. The battle was titanic but at the end of it Rikard stood (or swayed, rather) victorious on the field of battle, having destroyed Wah's physical form with his dagger as he had run out of spells. The lich's phylactery was never found, so it is entirely possible that Wah still walks the world, swearing vengeance on Rikard.

Pleased with Rikard's efforts, Mystra granted the necromancer a priceless gift. Noting that he had used his dagger to slay Wah, she enchanted the blade, so it lengthened to that of a long sword and glowed with blue fire, while retaining the weight and speed of a dagger. To this day it is the only sword that mages can use and carries potent magic with it.
