Desirability

This weapon will drain monsters, in addition to inflicting Necromancy miscasts on them a la mummy death curses. It will also curse random inventory items, and has a terrible weapon as its base type. Only consider it if you already have 26 skill in polearms and really don't care about your inventory being cursed constantly.

Ashenzari blocks the curses if you worship him, preventing them from affecting you.
