Letter Opener

faint Creation

This mildly sharp blade appears to be a sword in miniature, and isn’t designed for combat.

Three times a day the letter opener can be touched to any missive, scroll, map, book, folded parchment or similar communication or text, and it opens the item touched. Any mundane wax seal, strap, lock, knot, cord, stamp, calligraphy, or crest affixed to the missive slides aside without being damaged, and the missive opens itself for easy reading. One minute later, the missive closes itself, resuming its previous configuration and condition with all its seals and bindings in place and undisturbed, showing no signs of tampering.

The letter opener may work on missives with magic seals and closings, but must make a caster level check (1d20+3) against a DC equal to 10 + the caster level of magic seal or fixture. On a failed save, the seal is not disturbed and the missive is not opened. On a successful check, the effect is the same as described above, including resetting itself after one minute (leaving no sign it was ever read).

If used in combat the table knife suffers a –1 penalty to attack rolls, and deals 1d2 damage.
