Only men of honor can wield this

An item with this special ability can only be used by honorable characters. honorable characters are those whose class abilities, race abilities, feats etc. are up to date according to the rules on this websites. If a character who is not honorable tries to use this weapon it loses all magic abilities for as long as it uses the corresponding slot on this character. This can not be used to hide the weapon from detection or similar. It simply means that this character cannot effectively use this item. Curses still apply!
