A '''twisted weapon''' is a specialty weapon that was introduced at [[Return to Coraesine Field]] by the merchant [[Hurdragof]]. When unlocked and fully "trained", the weapon can change from a white-runed twisted steel weapon to a scintillating twisted steel weapon, and will produce small whirlwinds.

A twisted weapon is a specialty weapon that was introduced at Return to Coraesine Field by the merchant Hurdragof. When unlocked and fully "trained", the weapon can change from a white-runed twisted steel weapon to a scintillating twisted steel weapon, and will produce small whirlwinds.

Tier 1

Analyze

You analyze your twisted steel tiger-claw and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item type should not change."

The creator has also provided the following information:

The twisted steel tiger-claw is not unlocked!

Available Actions: RUB, PULL, TILT, and KNOCK.

This tiger-claw may be altered to have a different 15/15/15 and SHOW description ONLY.  No LONG descriptions!

Special merchants that are skilled with this type of weapon may also alter the weapon's parts.  These are currently set to blades, edges, and grip.

This tiger-claw makes little whirlwinds.

You can tell that the tiger-claw is as light as it can get.

Usage

Verb Style First Third
KNOCK White-runed {You strike the edge of your stiletto steadily against the ground. XXX strikes the edge of her stiletto steadily against the ground.
Scintillating You strike the edge of your stiletto steadily against the ground and feel a gentle pulse of energy grow within its hilt. The energy suddenly flows into the stiletto's edge and the air around you swirls lazily in response, forming a rippling little whirlwind near your feet that quickly dissipates. XXX strikes the edge of her stiletto steadily against the ground and the air around her swirls lazily. A rippling little whirlwind suddenly forms near XXX's feet, but quickly dissipates.
With weapon or shield in off-hand You strike the edge of your twisted steel stiletto steadily against your krodera shield and feel a strong pulse of energy grow within its hilt. The energy suddenly surges into the stiletto's edge and the air around you churns rapidly in response, forming a wild little vortex near your feet that quickly dissipates. XXX strikes the edge of her twisted steel stiletto steadily against her krodera shield and the air around her churns rapidly. A wild little vortex suddenly forms near Halishae's feet, but quickly dissipates.
PULL White-runed {With a flick of your wrist, you draw the blade of your twisted steel stiletto parallel to your body. The air around you churns gently, and a subtle shudder travels from the hilt of your stiletto to its edge. Suddenly, your stiletto emits a metallic hum, and the air around you grows more calm. With a flick of her wrist, XXX draws the blade of her twisted steel stiletto parallel to her body. The air around her churns rapidly, and she fumbles around with her stiletto as it emits a brief, metallic hum
Scintillating With a flick of your wrist, you draw the blade of your twisted steel stiletto parallel to your body. The air around you churns powerfully, raising the hairs on the back of your neck. A profound shudder from the hilt of your stiletto travels to its edge and ceases as the stiletto emits a brief, metallic buzz. With a flick of her wrist, XXX draws the blade of her twisted steel stiletto parallel to her body. The air around her churns powerfully, and her stiletto emits a brief, metallic buzz.
RUB White-runed Your twisted steel stiletto hums gently as you run your thumb over its blade. Suddenly, the air around your fingers begins to swirl ominously and you deftly pull your right hand away before something terrible happens to it. The quiet humming ceases immediately. XXX's twisted steel stiletto hums gently as she runs her thumb over its blade. As XXX pulls her right hand away from the stiletto, the quiet humming suddenly stops.
Scintillating Your twisted steel stiletto buzzes loudly as you run your thumb over its blade.

Analyze

You analyze your twisted steel falchion and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item type should not change."

The creator has also provided the following information:

The twisted steel falchion is unlocked!

Available Actions: RUB, PULL, TILT, KNOCK, RAISE, WAVE, WAVE AT [target], and WAVE AT [self].

This falchion may be altered to have a different 15/15/15 and SHOW description ONLY.  No LONG descriptions!

Special merchants that are skilled with this type of weapon may also alter the weapon's parts.  These are currently set to blade, edge, and hilt.

Information

The weapons were sold off the shelf as a white-runed twisted steel <weapon>. By treating the weapon with a powder, the merchant can unlock its full potential. 

Hurdragof grabs a handful of scintillating white powder from inside his tool satchel, and begins to rub it over the surface of his sledgehammer.  After a moment, the sledgehammer begins to hum loudly and shimmers briefly.
Hurdragof examines his sledgehammer, staring at it intently from all possible angles.  Having acquainted himself with its inner workings, Hurdragof gives a satisfied nod.

As the wielder uses the weapon, they begin to train it - or the weapon trains them. With enough training, the weapon will reach its full potential, at which time it becomes a scintillating twisted steel <weapon>, and will begin to produce whirlwinds.

It's important to note that allowing someone else to use the weapon will reset all the training and the owner will have to start the process over again.

Note: The tier 1 verbs on a locked version, or on an untrained weapon, come with a three second roundtime.
