(Short swords can also be made from obsidian, with a [[wood]]en handle.) The rare exceptions are from elves, who trade wooden weapons, and a [[strange mood]], which can produce a weapon from almost anything (and would fall into the "other" category*). |

Actual weapon damage depends partially on the material from which the weapon was forged, then multiplied by quality (see next section). For example, a copper battle axe does a base 73 damage (110 x 66%), while a steel axe does 146 damage (110 x 133%), etc. | Actual weapon damage depends partially on the material from which the weapon was forged, then multiplied by quality (see next section).
