Halfling Crossbow This weapon is much smaller than the basic Hand Drawn Crossbow but still technically falls under the same category because it can be drawn by hand without the need for mechanical assistance. The Halfling Crossbow is usually about the length of an average man’s forearm, though there is a great variety of sizes in this subcategory of Crossbows. The bow portion is often 2/3 that length when strung. It was originally created to be a one handed ranged weapon that could be concealed. Due to the simple design, many versions were created including some very light draw weight crossbows that are toys for children. The unique feature that sets this class of crossbow apart from the rest is a bolt retention device and a release mechanism that utilizes a spring to hold the string in place before firing. This allows the crossbow to be stored loaded for quick deployment and use. Another feature is a guard or cover for the release mechanism to prevent accidental discharge when the crossbow is stored loaded. The over all design varies based on the craftsman who makes it but some come with a shortened stock having a downward turned handle portion at the back that incorporates a release mechanism. Others have the stock straight and thin all the way back so it sits flat against the body under the user’s garbs. Smaller ones have been mounted onto gauntlets or bracers but those have such weak draw weight they are hardly useful. Halfling Crossbow -2 emotes to use. One to draw the weapon from concealment and one to aim and shoot. -Can be reloaded and shot in another 2 emotes. - 5-50lb draw weight. There are 3 classes of Halfling Crossbows. Toy, Lite, and Standard. Toy draw weight: 5-15lbs Can not cause any harm. Lite draw weight: 16-30lbs Can only penetrate light clothing and cause non-lethal injuries though if it hits soft tissue, eyes or throat may be life threatening. Standard draw weight: 31-50lbs Can penetrate multiple layers of clothing and at the highest draw weight can pierce leather. - Materials for the stock are most often wood but can be made from other equally sturdy material if so desired. The bow for Toy and Light class can be made from a strong and flexible wood or metal but the Standard class must be made from metal. - The mechanism used to hold and release the string must include a spring to help prevent accidental release when stored loaded. - 15 block range. - Usable on horseback. Red Lines - The design of the Crossbow is up to the craftsman. These are not mass produced items and therefore left open to creativity. The only features they must have is a bolt retention device (spring, wooden flap, ect.) so that it can be stored loaded, a trigger guard or something of the sort and a spring in the release mechanism that prevents it from discharging wile stored. - Halfling Crossbows can not penetrate armor of any kind. - The Crossbow must have listed in the description the length of bolt it uses as there is no standard bolt size for these unique Crossbows. The bolt size is allowed to vary depending on the designer. Use a named crossbow for the final product. - To use a Halfling Crossbow you must have the proper size bolts in your inventory. They require 8 sticks, 8 feathers, and 1 ingot of Iron for 8 bolts. They then must be named with a description specifying their length. Use named arrows for the final product. - This weapon is for crp and rp only because PvP use would be more powerful than the rp version. - At the end of the description the craftsman must put a standard list of attributes using this format for ease of use in rp. Class: [toy, lite, standard] [draw weight], bolt: [length of bolt in cm] Purpose (OOC) My inspiration for this device was the Derringer pistol. It is a small two shot pistol that the wealthy and well to do gamblers carried on themselves discreetly. It gave them comfort knowing they had a way to defend themselves if necessary without the need to carry the usual heavier armament. This is not a pistol, it is a heavily nerfed crossbow. The idea was for nobility and those with means to be able to carry them because they will be costly to buy and the bolts must all be custom made. They could also be used by bandits or ne’er-do-wells.

Not adding anything else, ready for review if possible. The spark glove is a white gloved modified to be used as flint and steel, the glove is a normal glove accept for the middle finger having crushed flint lased into the threads of the finger, and the thumb has a metal mesh, so when the two slide off each other a large spark is created, 5-7 Inches Range. The glove was an idea from an Alchemists named Vaclav Pascal, he was playing with his flint and steel until he got the full idea to some how to turn this into a quick hand held weapon, now when he first had the idea he intended the glove to be very use full. When he turned to his friend Giovanni, a master engineer of his kind, he had a long talk with him, and after a bit of thinking Giovanni said its possible, He started to tinker and work on this glove... The ability's of the glove: At the snap of the fingers, a Spark is created. Can Ignite anything flammable. ((Oil, Tinder, Dry wood, etc.)) On a roll of 5-20/20 the spark size will varies. Disadvantages of the glove: If the glove gets wet, It will not work. If its raining, the spark will not be created. The glove will only have five uses before the flint needs to be changed. If the roll is under 1-4/20, the spark will not work. May burn self on varied RP times. If the user gets a roll of 3, or 11, The glove will Backfire, in which even the user will be burned, and the pad on the glove will be useless((Deducts 5 uses of either the upgraded or the normal glove)) The glove creation RP((click here)) The Symbol on the back of the glove: Leave comments and constructive criticism, Thank you. List of People with the normal Gloves: -Giovanni the Master Blacksmith ((Zeedusfrostblood)) -Donavin Pascal ((Zeedusfrostblood)) -Arthal Lowedge ((JuicyRhino)) [Recreated the Glove, Iron holdings allow it to have 10 Uses rather than 5] ======================================================== Glove Upgraded, Currently the only upgraded glove are held by Vaclav Pascal, a Flame Alchemist. Some upgrades that have been added: Spark uses are up to 20 Now: With the new flint pads, they are easily sowed on and last longer for they are pads mixed with other materials such as a back metal to keep it in place and some other spark-able non-metals.
