What's the bare minimum of tags I'd have to use to make an actual sword a playable adventurer? Because that's what I want to do now.

I don't think you can. But I suppose that you could add a creature called 'sword' with a body and attacks to fit.

[BlackFlyme]

I don't know why I did this, but here. It's pretty bare-bones, just a sword that cannot appear naturally in the world, but can appear as an outsider adventurer.

Can't pick things up though, what with the no-hands and all.

I might make an entire set of animated weapons sometime, once I find out if it has been done before or not.

I'll need to nerf it too. It can lose its tail-hilt, but not its life.

It hasnt. I looked for something like that, never found anything. Genesis has animated armors with weapons+shields, but thats it.

[Nidilap]

This would make a great bloodline game. But if you lose the sword (because jumping off cliffs is SUCH a good idea), the weapon that swung the last blow becomes the new Weapon of Bloodline.
