The Guardian Saya

The Guardian Saya is ancient and powerful, of this there is no question; a sheathe of arcing orichalcum that looks almost like a weapon itself, the sheathe can hold any one handed sword, the blade naturally fitting into the artifact's narrow mouth.
This sheathe holds a weapon, certainly; but this is but a part of its merit. The sheathe is indestructible as any artifact, and it guides itself into the path of oncoming attacks, deflecting them aside with the merest effort. This adds a +2 external penalty to strike the wielder. If fully attuned, this rises to +3.
The sheathe allows weapons to slip free almost before the wielder knows they are needed, readying them in a flash. Drawing a blade from the sheathe is a diceless reflexive action that does not require a miscellaneous action; add two dice to join battle rolls.
