This axe has had a curse placed upon it by one of the lords of Pandemonium so that unsuspecting adventurers like you would unleash demons into this world. Beware, for this axe has ways of taking its wielder under its command...

Mesmerizes user if any hostile monster present

If you are wielding this broad axe and a monster is visible, you will be mesmerized and restricted from moving any farther away from the monster: "Visions of slaying the [monster] flood into your mind." If there are multiple monsters, you will fixate on the closest one. When mesmerized by the axe, you lose any current confusion and gain temporary clarity (suggesting a possible emergency use, if you lack potions of curing). Unwielding the axe (by scroll or Tukima's Dance) dispels the mesmerization. (The unwielding dispels all mesmerization, even if merfolk/sirens are involved.)

Every time you attack in melee with it, there's a 10% chance of summoning a friendly common demon (60% chance of Tier-4; 40%, Tier-3).
