Lifestealer is an artifact weapon that appears in SporkHack and EvilHack. Its base item is a two-handed sword, and it is chaotic-aligned. Lifestealer is most often associated with Vlad the Impaler; he is guaranteed to be generated with the weapon when encountered at the top of his tower in Gehennom if possible. If the item already exists, however, it will be replaced with a regular two-handed sword.

As the name implies, it drains life and levels from monsters it hits, similar to Stormbringer; when wielded, it additionally confers drain resistance.
