Sabers of the Spider's Song
Sabres

These sabers are about 4' long, with a uniform width of 1''. The edges have a fine, permanent edge that are rimmed with a paralyzing poison. Their blades are of adamanite, so they cannot be broken. The twin sabers, which are unnamed, form a strong mental link with the one who wields them, which is currently a drow named Fe'Talia De'Haaren. If the blades are stolen, she can snap her fingers and they will disappear. This is a magical dweormer carried by the sabers. Anyone, if properly attached to the blades with a mental bond, has this power. No one else can use these blades unless the current wielder of them dies. Their handles are of mithril and adamanite, etched over in small designs. They are said to sing softly as they blur in parries and slashes, hence their name. 

This weapon was forged by duergar and traded to a city of mind flayers. Fe'Talia came across them when she was attacked in the Underdark by a group of illithyds. She took them off of a dead mind flayer. She performed most of the special powers of the blades herself, though, such as the singing powers, mental link, etc.  

The last holder of the weapons were a mind flayer. He no longer holds it because Fe'Talia slew the entire party of illithyds when she was attacked in the Underdark.   Fe'Talia De'Haaren, of Ches Nasad, priestess of Lloth now controls this weapon

Abilities
The sabers are powerful enough to slice through metal and rock with ease  they cannot be broken. With the mental link to their holder, they can be semi-aware of what kind of mood the owner is in. If the owner is afraid or angry, they seem to shine brighter and leap to the hands of the owner. The first attack is never made by the weapons, though. That choice is the person's to make. 
The sabers can disappear at will of their holder if they are stolen and reappear in the owner's hands. They burn anyone who touches them and is considered an "enemy" by the holder of the weapons. 

The sabers sing softly when being used. How this particular trait came about no one is sure, if it was put there by the duergar, mind flayers, or Fe'Talia herself.
