Oooooooooo...Cerek wants a Darksword....A 2-hand sword that sucks magic.....it doesn't get much better than that.

I have 2 suggestions for items to help thieves and assassins.

1) Just add or make a Dagger of Venom for SoA.

2) How about a Short sword of Backstabbing that actually enhances the Backstab attack, instead of just being +3 or whatever.
Increasing the damage multiplier is the most obvious solution, but with some characters doing 7x damage, that could get out of hand pretty quick. Maybe that could be offset by a -25% penalty to Hide in Shadows (because the sword tends to vibrate and "hum" in anticipation of the strike).

That would make the Backstab more difficult, but worth the effort.

OK....as I think this through a little more...here's a better alternative...

Short Sword of Backstabbing, +3

Statistics:

Damage: 1-10
Improved Invisibility (2/day)
Silence (on wielder) (2/day)

Ok heres a good one

Axe of Brawn
+4 Battle Axe

This axe forged bye the great blacksmith Tehtheron in the invasion of Thay to aid the attackers it was given to the great barbarian Cerek but stolen from him and is now being sold at the adventurers mart.

This +4 battle axe would give +2 to strength, +1 to con, +1 to dexterity, -1 to wisdom, -2 to intellegence, and -1 to charisma

1D10+5 damage

Batedesign@earthlink.net

It is pretty cool and balanced weapon and i know it would work since i have a mac too. Hence my Mac Man posts.

To make it do all those things while equipped, Goulum, all you need to do is go into IEEP and go to the first page...

1. Go to the Equipping Effects drop down menu and select the bonus attribute you want... like for Strength the attribute is Strength Bonus. If you wanted to raise it, go to parameters and set the parameter to 2, for +2 to Strength. If you wanted to reduce it, make it a -2... works like that. The modifier for the statistic modifier would be set to a 00, because you would be adding or subtracting directly from the current amount... if you set it to 01, it would make it that amount, hence, 2. 02 would make it a percent number, which is a more advanced exercise if you really want to get in to it.

2. Change it to like 0-100%, Pre-Target, Power 5, I always have the last last unknown a 4, and make the first drop down menu a "While Equipped" affect, with 0 seconds, and 0 for each of the damage things. 1 for the 0 next to the left drop down menu, and make that drop down a 'Self'.

3. Do this for the rest of the attributes you want to change, like charmisma and all that... it's tedious I know.

Oops, silly me... that I didn't know. Sorry then... well, I suppose it will function as a little helper to anyone I guess who has Windows and doesn't know how. What's with all the MAC's, anyway?

There was a nice small sword which I used in one of my AD&D sessions. It's a very useful short sword for thieves..

Short Sword +2 "Silencer"

Known as Silencer, this short sword +2 gives %20 bonus to hide in shadows and move silently, also a backstab can be more deadly when scored a hit..

ThacO: +2
Damage: 1d6+2

Special:

+ %20 bonus to hide in shadows
+ %20 bonus to move silently

Adds x1 plus to backstabb modifier.
