I already have "Family's Ancestral Blade" going for me, but I don't know what my alignment or story should be. Right now I have an idea, that I was once an evil intelligent sword, reworked and reenchanted long ago to be far weaker, and be good. (Merciful enchantment) I try to be evil, but am too nice to actually do anything evil. ("Well, we could go scare small children." "No, that'd scar the poor dears!" "We could scare some adults" "No, that'd just be mean!" "Well what DO you want to do?" "Well, er... uhm... uh.. glare at someone! Yeah, thats evil! Er... nah, too mean... and I don't have a face...") But I don't know what alignment that would be, or if I'd seriously go through with it... Any ideas?

Perhaps the old magic is still present enough to allow it to take over from time to time, returning the sword to an evil alignment, and maybe that terrifies the good intelligence within the blade. Maybe it prays, fears for it's own 'livelihood' fears for it's own existence? All this reminds me of something, a man is turned into a powerful magical weapon, and his lover picks up the blade to continue his crusade. Some time later, while in fierce combat: the lover: Honey? We need to talk... the sword: I'm busy!
