Looking for a material..

[Kerilstrasz]

I'm looking for a material that i can craft weapons with..

i need it to give natural Keen effect on the weapon (not magic).
and maybe count as magic for bypasing DR.

is there anything you can thing of, or should i homebrew smthing?

the purpose of it is to equip these weapons on 2 statues that will
work as trap if anyone triggers them... but they could also be
disarmed from statues if characters don't trigger the trap.

Unless it is intended as Loot, won't Improved Critical (Weapon) work?

Could you just add casting of Keen Edge and Magic Weapon to whatever activates the statues? Both are available as oils. Scabbard of Keen Edges (DMG 266) also might help.

A weapon of blue ice (Frost 80) deals +1 enhancement bonus to damage and will generally get the +1 from being of masterwork quality, but does not bypass DR/magic.

Another option for keeping down the cost is to use the Pitspawned template (DMG II 278).

If they disable the statues before/without trigger them, then they
can take these weapons.

Those weaps are intended as reward for 2 lvl 4 chars.. i think those 2 enchants
get em too much above wbl


Both are available as oils.

Those weapons are held by statues that the palyers discover like 2.ooo years
since the last curator died. i dont think oils last this long :)


Scabbard of Keen Edges (DMG 266) also might help.
generally the same as above... statues don'e use scabbards, neither i wont to
force my players think "uh... lets check those marble scabbards too"

Maybe the closest thing to what im asking... i ll keep this in mind :)


Another option for keeping down the cost is to use the Pitspawned template (DMG II 278).

The pitspawned template can be added to any suit of
armor, shield, or weapon crafted on the Infinite Layers
of the Abyss by a smith native to that plane.

Unfortunately, even though this kinda seems ideal, due to story the creators
of the statues (and the weapons) had no way to get there or even meet someone
who could since, due to story, In.L.of Abyss is kinda their enemy territory.
