“ If a fighter has a +1 sword that only gives that plus one if he does an exhausting practice routine in the morning, he's liable to ditch the magic sword and just use an old fashioned chunk of steel.

There is a loophole in the spell in that trying to take one of their weapons will also awaken them.”
