So this month's RPG Blog Carnival theme is cursed items. I'm doing a series of posts featuring curses that can be added to different magic item types. The first is curses for weapons. Take a look at the post and let me know what you think. Thanks!

We definitely need more curses... There aren't enough in the 5e DMG. Time was, 90% of everything was cursed and Identify was the first spell you put in your spell book, but now... :smallannoyed:

Not sure I like the 'on a natural 1' thing though. I've seen DMs who do these types of things on a 1 normally, without any kind of curse being present. And it doesn't trigger very often. I like curses to be 'always on', like the Masculinity/Femininity curse. Now that's a classic!

Hahahahaha. Fair enough! Thanks for the feedback.
