Scabbard

A scabbard is a special container for a weapon, lockpick or shield. Different scabbards are suitable for different types of weapons and different sizes of shields.

Melee ~ Axes | Daggers | Flails | Heavy-swords | Misc weapons | Polearms | Swords | Maces ~ Unarmed

Ranged ~ Fired | Thrown - Info: Weapons w e - Protection: < Shields w e > < Armours w e > < Scabbards >

When a weapon or shield is in a scabbard:

• You can "draw" it, taking it out of the scabbard and holding it at the same time
• You may be able to "hurl" weapons such as knives, daggers or darts from a scabbard at an opponent for a thrown attack (either during combat, or to initiate it)
• With some swords you can iai, slashing the sword from its scabbard at your opponent, initiating combat at the same time.
• Weapons in scabbards will not be confiscated by Imperial Guards in Bes Pelargic
• If the scabbard is identified as a component pouch, rituals and spells that require the sheathed weapon or shield will automatically retrieve and return it as required.

You can "sheathe" a weapon to put it into a scabbard of the appropriate type (if you have one, and there's space in it) and "draw" to take your weapon out and into your hand. This seems to slightly damage the scabbard, so frequent use of aliases that make you sheathe your weapon, perform an action and then draw the weapon again will result in "wear and tear".
