Starzad

Starzad was a vorpal scimitar.

Powers
As a vorpal weapon, Starzad was especially suited for beheading opponents.

History
Starzad was forged by a genie in the Zakharan city of Qudra. The scimitar was acquired by the sha'ir Tejan ibn-Dhabar, who carried it with him on his travels through the elemental planes. Tejan eventually transformed himself into a water elemental on the Elemental Plane of Water. Just before doing so, he sent Starzad to a former colleague. Said colleague eventually became a member of the Doomguard in Sigil, and Starzad came to be stored at the Doomguard headquarters.

The scimitar was eventually stolen on behalf of the marilith Kaliva, who sought powerful swords to help her defeat her old mentor.
