I'm guessing it also had the ability to use a light spell at least once per day:

It was just are 3:30 Wednesday morning when a Minneapolis apartment dweller was forced to defend himself and his property with a sword.

Police say they got a call from residents of the 3100 block of Lyndale Avenue South that four people had forced their way into a residence.

According to police, once the burglars were inside, they got into a fight with one of the residents who grabbed his roommates sword and started slashing the intruders. His feisty attack send the invaders running, but not before he wounded several.

Shortly after Minneapolis police arrived, they were called by doctors at HCMC about the arrival of three people to the ER with severed fingers and lacerations.

One had minor injuries and was treated and arrested. The other two were more seriously injured and were treated at HCMC. They'll be transported to the Hennepin County Jail when they are released by the hospital.

The apartment resident was slightly injured in the attack.

Police continue investigating the incident.

Way to go dude! All that D&D paid off!

*nods* definitely!

Speaking of which, and on a serious note, anyone know anywhere in town that offers self defense classes for women?

Not sure. I have a friend who teaches Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Let me see if he knows anything... You might check with the PD. They sometimes offer classes. That or the Y or Fort Wayne Women's Bureau.
