{{OGL Top}} '''Vorpal:''' This potent and feared ability allows the weapon to sever the heads of those it strikes. Upon a roll of natural 20 (followed by a successful roll to confirm the [[SRD:Critical Hit|critical hit]]), the weapon severs the opponent’s head (if it has one) from its body. Some creatures, such as many [[SRD:Aberration Type|aberrations]] and all [[SRD:Ooze Type|oozes]], have no heads and are therefore unaffected. Others, such as [[SRD:Golem|golems]] and [[SRD:Undead Type|undead]] creatures other than vampires, are not affected by the loss of their heads. Most other creatures, however, die when their heads are cut off. A vorpal weapon must be a [[SRD:Slashing Weapon|slashing]] weapon. (If you roll this property randomly for an inappropriate weapon, reroll.) Strong necromancy and transmutation''; ''CL 18th; [[SRD:Craft Magic Arms and Armor|Craft Magical Arms and Armor]]'', [[SRD:Circle of Death|circle of death]]'', ''[[SRD:Keen Edge|keen edge]]; ''Price +5 bonus. {{SRD Magic Item Footer}} [[Category:Weapon Enhancement|{{BASEPAGENAME}}]]
