Urn Your Pay (Rae judging)

OOC: Can you tell me its not necromancy? That would go a ways to making Erf happier . Also if it has only one school Erf will be more likely to consider it a "simple" magic weapon.

ooc: It's not necromancy. Let's go with universal until somebody tells me I'm a noob differently.

[Halford]

"Yep, still magic! Faint evocation, which I think all magic weapons are so that doesn't tell us too much - but still magic sword! Well who is going to take it? Obviously one of you big'uns, but which?"

Erf leaves this decision in the others hands and heads over to open the door (H23). Putting his ear to it he listens intently for a moment before opening it and peering in...

"Th' ane wha needs th' halp tae hit!" Gildrim answers. "That widnae be th' strappin' fellae haur. Ah wis lucky wi' th' snake afore. Mebbe Grendath teuk a hand, acause Ah can haurdly mynd takkin' th' swing."
