'''Polearm Harnesses''' are back-worn containers that hold and display a single polearm or runestaff. The {{boldmono|SLAP}} verb toggles between two sets of messaging for storing and retrieving the weapon.

This harness will hold a polearm/runestaff type weapon and displays it all pretty-like. Currently, you can SLAP, PUT/DROP (into), and GET (from) the harness. SLAP is a bit tricky -- it will change how you PUT and GET appropriate items from your container. This harness is currently Tier 1 (of 2), but it can be unlocked by some talented merchants.

Polearm Harnesses are back-worn containers that hold and display a single polearm or runestaff. The SLAP verb toggles between two sets of messaging for storing and retrieving the weapon.

Tier 1

The harness holds one polearm or runestaff. SLAP toggles between two messaging styles for PUT/DROP and GET.

Analyze

You get the feeling that any merchant can alter the base and show of this harness (but not the long).  Alterations must make sense for containers that hold polearms/runestaves.

This harness will hold a polearm/runestaff type weapon and displays it all pretty-like.  Currently, you can SLAP, PUT/DROP (into), and GET (from) the harness.  SLAP is a bit tricky -- it will change how you PUT and GET appropriate items from your container.  This harness is currently Tier 1 (of 2), but it can be unlocked by some talented merchants.

Usage

Verb Style First Third
GET Default You carefully unlimber your lance from your harness. XXX carefully unlimbers his lance from his harness.
Alternate You reach behind you and pull your lance up until you can remove the attached sock and wheel from your lance and then pull it free from your harness. You then quickly stow the sock within the harness. XXX reaches behind him and pulls his lance up until he can remove the attached sock and wheel from it and then pulls it free from his harness. He then quickly stows the sock into the harness.
PUT Default You carefully slip your lance inside the harness. Since it is not large enough to hold the lance, the remaining part protrudes far over your shoulder. XXX carefully slips his lance inside the harness. Since it is not large enough to hold the lance, the remaining part protrudes far over his shoulder.
Alternate You slip the butt end of your lance into the attached sock and wheel and strap the haft to the harness using a curious assortment of straps and buckles. The remainder protrudes overhead. XXX slips the butt end of his lance into the attached sock and wheel and straps the haft with a curious assortment of straps and buckles to the harness. The remaining part of the lance protrudes overhead.
SLAP You slap your harness and feel something has changed. n/a
Cycle between different styles of messaging.

This tier adds PULL and RUB. Their messaging changes depending on whether a weapon is stored.

Analyze

You get the feeling that any merchant can alter the base and show of this harness (but not the long).  Alterations must make sense for containers that hold polearms/runestaves.

This harness will hold a polearm/runestaff type weapon and displays it all pretty-like.  Currently, you can PULL, RUB, SLAP, PUT/DROP (into), and GET (from) the harness.  SLAP is a bit tricky -- it will change how you PUT and GET appropriate items from your container.  This harness is currently fully unlocked.
Verb Status First Third
PULL Empty You carefully inspect the straps and buckles of your harness looking for any sign of wear. XXX carefully inspects the straps and buckles of his harness.
Weapon stored You pull at your harness, tugging at the straps and buckles to make certain that your weapon is quite secure. XXX pulls at his harness, tugging at the straps and buckles to make certain that the weapon is quite secure.
RUB Empty You reach behind you and carefully adjust the fit of your harness. XXX reaches behind himself and carefully adjusts the fit of his harness.
Weapon stored You reach up and grab the haft of your weapon and adjust it in the harness so that it is ready to unlimber. XXX reaches up and grabs the weapon in his harness and adjusts it.

Additional Information

When the sturdy lance is stored, LOOK produces: 

You carefully look at your heavy leather harness.
Tucked into the harness is a sturdy lance.

The harness's displayed description also changes according to the messaging style selected with SLAP:

Style Displayed description
Default a heavy leather harness with a sturdy lance poking high overhead
Alternate a heavy leather harness with a sturdy lance poking overhead with the butt dragging behind attached to a leather sock and wheel
