Armament bane
Bane is a general term for a functional item script that is usually applied to weapons (and rarely shields) to gives either flares, weighting, or extra enchantment(s) to the item when used against a specific opponent as categorized below. As shown in The Charts of Clarity, bane occupies its own property slot and may be added to almost any weapon (at the discretion of the merchant).
Creature Bane
A Creature Bane weapon gives either flares, weighting, or extra enchant when used against a specific creature. This was the original concept for bane and the idea expanded over the years. Bane is set with the first swing of the weapon.
Undead Bane
Undead Bane is an ability put on a weapon or shield to give it a permanent ability to hit the undead, as well as an ability that activates only against the undead. This can include flares, weighting, or additional enchantments. Undead Bane is different from permabless as it can come with different flare or weighting, whereas permabless is permanent ability to hit undead and (sometimes) holy water flares.
