I'm drooling over a couple things Tsin has, so I'm going to offer up something for sale I never thought I would, and I'm guessing, probably wont sell. It's the self ammo mechanical crossbow from the Anfelt. I actually gave it to a friend to use, so my own personal knowledge is rather limited.
Interested parties should IM me at Tayvin, or email at Tayvin@aol.com.
I do know the flares seem a little weak to me, but my friend is a bard and uses tonis with it, for a 1 second cock, 1 second aimed shot, and he destroys pretty much everything he hunts. If the shot does *NOT* destroy the target, it will flare in the exact spot with the mechanical flares. Fun to watch. So here is what I know.
a silver-veined heavy glowbark crossbow etched with intricate runes
>remove crossbow
You unsling a silver-veined heavy glowbark crossbow etched with intricate runes off from over your shoulder.
>look crossbow
You see a silver-veined heavy glowbark crossbow etched with intricate runes which is cocked and loaded with a blade-tipped slender black bolt.
You see nothing unusual, except for a small enchanter's glyph.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read crossbow
In the Common language, it reads:
Star Gazer
You cock your glowbark crossbow. A blade-tipped slender black bolt materializes at your crossbow's nock, loaded and ready to fire.
Roundtime: 3 sec.
You fire a blade-tipped slender black bolt at a cinder wasp!
AS: +370 vs DS: +255 with AvD: +33 + d100 roll: +35 = +183
... and hit for 37 points of damage!
Slash across right eye!
Hope the left is working.
The cinder wasp is stunned!
** As the bolt pierces the wasp's right eye, the small spring-loaded blades attached to the head suddenly spring open with incredible force! **
... 10 points of damage!
Slash to the cinder wasp's chest!
That heart's not broken, it's only scratched.
The bolt crumbles into tiny fragments, leaving a gaping wound in its place.
Roundtime: 3 sec.
You fire a blade-tipped slender black bolt at a cinder wasp!
AS: +370 vs DS: +208 with AvD: +33 + d100 roll: +67 = +262
... and hit for 83 points of damage!
Strong strike, punctures lung!
** As the bolt pierces the wasp's chest, the small spring-loaded blades attached to the head suddenly spring open with incredible force! **
... 15 points of damage!
Slash to the cinder wasp's chest!
Breathe deep, it'll feel better in a minute.
The bolt crumbles into tiny fragments, leaving a gaping wound in its place.
Roundtime: 3 sec.
The first thing that strikes you about the crossbow is the weight, which is about 13 pounds. In your best estimation, it's worth about 50,000,000 silvers.
You sense a faint aura of magic around the glowbark crossbow. From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the crossbow is as some type of weapon.
It has a bonus of +27 from a normal crossbow, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it requires skill in ranged weapons to use effectively.
