  === 3.2.1 How do I create my own magical weapons? ===
  
- This is done via a series of scrolls that you may find or buy in shops. The procedure is done in two steps. Use the prepare weapon scroll to lay a magic matrix on your weapon. Then use any of the other scrolls to add enchantments you want. Note that some of these scrolls will also require a "sacrifice" to be made when they are read. To sacrifice an object just stand over it when you read the weapon scroll. Scrolls for weapon enchantment are:

+ Scrolls for weapon enchantment are:
   
-   * Prepare weapon - Diamonds are required for the sacrifice. The item can be enchanted the square root of the number of diamonds sacrificed. Thus, if 100 diamonds are sacrificed, the weapon can have 10 other enchant scrolls read. 
-   * Improve damage - There is no sacrifice. Each scroll read will increase the damage by 5 points, and the weight by 5 kilograms. 
-   * Lower (Improve) Weight - There is no sacrifice. Each scroll read will reduce the weight by 20%. The minimum weight a weapon can have is 1 gram. 
-   * Enchant weapon - This does not require any sacrifices, and increases the magic by 1. 
-   * Improve Stat (ie, Strength, Dexterity, etc) - The sacrifice is the potion of the same type as the ability to be increased (ie, Improve Strength requires strength potions). The number of potions needed is the sum of all the abilities the weapon presently gives multiplied by 2. The ability will then be increased by 1 point. Thus, if a sword is Int +2 and Str +2, then 8 potions would be needed to raise any stat by one point. But if the sword was Int +2, Str +2, and Wis -2, then only 4 potions. A minimum of 2 potions will be needed.

- WARNING: Something to keep in mind before you start enchanting like crazy - you can only use a weapon that has 5 + 1 enchantments for every 5 levels of physique experience you possess. So, a character with 10th level in the physique experience category may only be able to use a weapon with a maximum of 7 enchantments! 
+ WARNING: Something to keep in mind before you start enchanting like crazy - you will add to the item power of the weapon with each enhancement.  It is entirely possible to enchant the weapon above your level and you won't be able to use it!
  
  === 3.2.2 How do I enchant Armour? ===
  
  Enchantment of armour is achieved with the enchant armour scrolls.  Each time you successfully use a scroll, you will add a plus value, more armour to the piece of equipment and some fractional amount of weight.
