  1. Default A mechanical heavy crossbow of speed with temporary heavy sighting and zesting.

    Up for auction is a gnomish-crafted crossbow inset with various sprockets and gears should a collector be interested. This mechanical heavy crossbow of speed is 5x, nicely zested and currently has temp heavy sighting on it. The minimum is 30mil. The buyout is 40mil.

    The crossbow has a mechanical crank. The cock time is three seconds no matter what - race, strength, encumbrance, etc. This item will not force stance when cocking or pull the user from hiding. It allows the user to stay hidden while cocking and loading. Additionally - cocking can be done onehanded while the other hand is occupied and it has temporary heavy sighting.

    turn crossbow (allows the user to cock in 3 seconds)
    Your grab the windlass attached to the crossbow and turn it, smoothly cocking it.
    Roundtime: 3 sec.

    Has a few scripts:
    tap crossbow
    You scrutinize the tiller of your crossbow, occasionally running your thumb along the crossbow's surface, looking for flaws.

    pull crossbow
    You raise your crossbow and sight down the bolt. After satisfying yourself that the sightings are correct you slowly lower your crossbow.

    push crossbow
    Carefully planting your foot firmly on the ground, you brace the prod of your crossbow against it securely. With the ease of long practice you slip the bowstring from one nock, twist it several times to tighten, and slide the knot's loop back into position.

    point crossbow
    You carefully sight down your gnomish-crafted crossbow and along the shaft.

    Le sigh. Would love to pick this up, but crikey these seem to go for a lot.
