Sunsword is a rather useful artifact long sword. It is lawful and does +1d5 to hit and double damage to undead monsters; L, M, W, Z, ghosts and shades. It also acts as a light source with a radius of 2 squares, and prevents blinding from lights. It becomes lit when wielded, and unlit when unwielded. If you kill a monster (except by stoning) which is wielding it, then it will stay lit, allowing you to use a different weapon while still having a light source.
Light Radius
The Sunsword has a light radius of two squares around the character (or monster) it's being wielded by. Compare that to the radius of a lamp, which is three.
........... ........... ........... ....xxx.... ...xxxxx... ...xx@xx... ...xxxxx... ....xxx.... ........... ........... ...........
X's represent the squares lit by Sunsword.
SLASH'EM
Although this weapon is itself unchanged in SLASH'EM, it becomes a much better option for lawfuls in SLASH'EM. It is easier obtain, as a high-level lawful who sacrifices enough will eventually obtain a minion carrying it, which can be safely disarmed with a bullwhip. Since the chances of getting minions are not affected by previously generated artifacts or minions, it makes it quite easy for a mid- to late-game player to get. Also, spellcasters become a much larger threat in SLASH'EM, simply because they have nastier things to summon, including nastier spellcasters. However, all non-undead spellcasters will be peaceful to lawfuls, with the relatively minor exceptions of the nalfeshnee and the nabassu.
