Long Description

Two feet long and forged from fine Gebra steel, this wrench is truly an Artificer's tool.  Along its length, runes inlaid in fine silver wire spell out a message for the initiated, and a constellation of silver stars around the crescent head twinkle in any available light, and perhaps in none at all.  The grip seems to shape itself to the wielder's hand, and the balance is light and wieldy.
There are eleven gleaming stars in the constellation.
It appears to have something written on it.

The writing reads:

Written in silvery runes in Wizard_spells:
If thy heart be that of a true Artificer, thou mayst invoke this rod for aid with mechanisms arcane and technologick.

Appraises As

The runic crescent wrench is about two feet long and three inches wide. It is made of klatchian steel and could be used as a weapon of type mace.
