Do techno-wizard weapons count? I thought the Fire Demon Pistol in the errata section if Issue #3 was amusing.

Other than that, there were two rune weapon articles which come to mind. In 'A Mind of Their Own' Issue #5, several clever rune weapons included Vlad, a sword bonded with the spirit of a vampire intelligence. Vampire cults want to put it on an altar, but it just wants to cut and drink more blood. In a recent issue, I think #52, another Rune Weapon article (with playablpe RCCs) included a Spirit of Light bonded to a long sword who was just a fascinating character all around.

Honorable Mention: The False Rune Sword from Rifter #13, a Techno-Shifter item with a Possession Entity trapped inside.

Don't remember off hand which issue it's in, but I loved the article with the rune arrows. Used it in one of my campaigns, too. Much mayhem and amusement ensued. Good times, good times.
A wise man once said, "Only a fool takes offense where none was intended." I repeat this good advice to myself at least once a day.

Calm, reasoned discourse is the best way to change minds; too bad all the calm & reason in the world can't open a willfully closed mind.
