New Legion Equipment

[TheNander 241]

Nalro Grayhammer sits in his brewery at his rather small drafting table. He begins drafting a tool that Dwarves can use in close-quarters combat. Upon the designs completion he attaches it to a page of his journal which is equipped with a lock made by Farren Starbreaker, Master Blacksmith and put in place by Olaf Stormhammer. Nalro then publishes a brief literature on the new equipment and distributes copies of it.

 

Nalro then begins writing in magnificent calligraphy.

 

"The Digging Tool (or D-Tool as it is better known as) is a razor-sharp miniature spade that is as long as a half Om. I have previously made a stone prototype which was used to cut off the hands of Dormin Doomforge. The issue I seemed to notice with the stone head was that it chipped constantly causing a blunt edge. Unfortunately for Dormin we were not aware of this at the time of his punishment. Sorry Dormin. Anyhow, I had Farren smith me another prototype, this one of iron. The problem with it is that it isn't as strong or durable as i'd like it to be. It is significantly sharper, but has a short lifespan. I have deemed it not safe to issue to the legion as of now.

 

He did it. Farren has made the final version of the D-Tool. This one is ready to be issued to the Legion. The head is composed of steel smelted by Master Blacksmith Farren Starbreaker using iron and a substance that looked to me like coal. The wooden handle is composed of oak which is found to be the strongest out of the woods we've tested."

 

Nalro, now satisfied with his previous invention begins sketching a new design, a design for armor. The design is then given to Olaf and then returned to his journal.

 

With the designs in hand, Olaf gets to work:

 

 

"I have noticed somewhat recently that all legionaires are patrolling the hold with this hot, heavy, and clanky iron armor. The other day I saw a few legionaires attempting to apprehend a criminal, but was unable to succeed due to the criminal outrunning the iron-clad legionaires. I have decided that the city guard needs a light, flexible, and durable armor that has lots of functionality. As a result there should be an increase in both arrests and morale.

 

I have brought Olaf the design and he has created a harder, more durable leather. He has studded it as well, without my approval, but it seems fine. The armor also includes a belt with pouches and a sheathe for a combat knife."

 Gorum nods as he reads through the parchment.

 

 " Impressive Nalro, guud tu see ye back at yer inventions 'ar 'ar. Ah luuk forward tu seein' yer invention bein'; effectivly used. "

[TheNander 241]

Nalro Grayhammer sets off to go find Olaf and Farren again to make more equipment, hopeful that we will have enough materials.

 

((We need some iron and leather to make the equipment guize.))
