A note to those creating weapons.

« on: 28 October 2002, 23:08:00 »

As weapons master here at the boards i feel i need to make a few notes to those who help myself create weapons for the Santhrian Dream, OR are thinking about creating weapons anyway.

Recently i have been paging through the Misc. forum and have discovered that we have been posting a lot of great ideas on Misc. Items and weaponry and have i have been impressed with the works.However i feel the need to say that we need to cut down on making such weapons and/or Misc. items such as rings and necklaces and the like or they will become more common to Santharia rather than unique and treasures to the world which i don't think any of us want to ruin.

These weapons include such weapons with amazing magical propties and special abilities which i wont single out but there have been a few recently that although excellent work but are becoming more of a frequent thing rather than what i would call a treasure and a rarity. This does not mean stop brining up the ideas because i love to read whatever works you wish to produce weapons wise but please keep this note locked in your head when your making an entry for a treasured item or weapon.

However, saying this, i don't include uniquely smithed weapons, weapons that are unique that carry no magical propties are welcome anytime such as Arm Blades and The Razor Claw. Those type of weapons smithed and are a one off(without magical qualities or lightly blessed) or mass produced are always welcome, i just think we need to cut down a little on producing such high quality magical weapons before they become a common thing rather than rare. But keep coming up with the ideas!

Anyone asking questions or comments please bring them up

not me. I was thinking about creating one for axes long, long time ago. Your entry for swords just rekindled the idea.

Please post this statement at the current sticky topic, Llian, as too much sticky topics aren't good, when everything fits into one thread as well.

Also a note on your weapon entries: If you do research at several sources and copy things from other pages, you should be aware that not everything fits directly into the Dream, e.g. the references to the 14th and 16th centuries you made which found it's way to the polearms entry. Also make sure to write in present, not in the past (as it is done throughout the entry), as these weapons ares still in use!
