Just found this in a locker - since I am done with the ranged lifestyle, figure this might be a fun toy for someone. See below for the show, inspect and loresong.

MB is 500k
CB is 1m to Sharnath - SOLD
BO's are always welcome.

You see a carved bloodwood arbalest which is not cocked.

Stout and sturdy, the arbalest is carved into the form of a fierce dragon. The tail of the dragon's body curves around the release lever creating a comfortable grip, its spikes making convenient finger-grooves. The dragon's wings serve as a prod, which is held by a taught string over a black eahnor nut. A three-horned sight crests the dragon's head which has been hollowed out to allow the bolt to lie within a groove between two rows of spikes on the creatures back fire through the dragon's roaring maw. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

Inspect:


After a careful inspection you determine that a carved bloodwood arbalest requires skill in ranged weapons to use effectively. It appears to be a modified heavy crossbow.

You determine that you could wear the arbalest, slinging it across your shoulders and back. The arbalest appears to serve some purpose.

Loresong:

As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the bloodwood arbalest in your hand, and you learn something about it...

The first thing that strikes you about the arbalest is the weight, which is about 12 pounds. In your best estimation, it's worth about 150,000 silvers.

As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the bloodwood arbalest in your hand, and you learn something about it...

You sense a faint aura of magic around the bloodwood arbalest. From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the arbalest is as some type of weapon.

As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the bloodwood arbalest in your hand...

It has a bonus of +27 from a normal arbalest, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it requires skill in ranged weapons to use effectively.

As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the bloodwood arbalest in your hand...

The bloodwood arbalest resonates with your voice, indicating that it has been enchanted by Plinn.
