No scripting required for this one. An iron sword is an iron sword, right? Wrong! Not when it comes with a LORE parchment with the weapons history recorded on it. Perhaps it is an iron sword once owned by a great Dwarf cleric of Dorand, blessed in the temple in Lar on such-and-such a date, used to slay a party of Blood's raiders on such-and-such a date, etc. etc.
Now how much would you pay for that sword?
