An adjustable sheath or scabbard is a sheath with a worn location, weight, capacity, and description that can change. The owner can hold and PULL the scabbard, thereby adjusting it.

Unlocking certificates have historically been available at Bloodriven Village.

Example

This is an example of how the scabbard changes, depending on its worn location. These statistics are for a warped driftwood scabbard which is fully unlocked.

Worn Location Weight Capacity Holds
BELT ~ 2 Lbs 15Lb (SSA) 1 item
SHOULDER ~ 2 Lbs 15Lb (SSA) 1 item
BACK ~ 3 Lbs 22Lb (MED) 1 item
WRIST < 1 Lb 2Lb (VSA) 1 item
THIGH/LEG < 1 Lb 3Lb (VSA) 1 item
ANKLE < 1 Lb 2Lb (VSA) 1 item

Analyze

You analyze your driftwood scabbard and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:
This item cannot be lightened, deepened or have a long description.  The base is limited to a 15/9/15 alteration.

The following can be altered:
* The article (First 15).
* The material (Middle 9).  Some restrictions apply.
* The noun (Last 15).  Some restrictions apply.
* The show.
* The read.

A warped driftwood scabbard is fully unlocked.

You can tell that the scabbard is as light as it can get, but you might be able to have a talented merchant deepen its pockets for you.
