Sheelba of The Eyeless Face - Weapons of Fafhrd and The Gray Mouser

Weapons of Fafhrd and The Gray Mouser

Fafhrd commonly uses a sword which he names Graywand. He also carries a poignard named Heartseeker and a short hand-axe which has never been named. The Mouser also fights with a pair of weapons: a "slim, curving" sword called Scalpel and a dagger called Cat's Claw, the latter usually hidden in the small of the Mouser's back, and the original of which had a very subtle curve. (It was a straight-bladed weapon by the events of "Lean Times in Lankhmar".) As the pair are often divested of their property, these are names they apply to any of their appropriate weapons and not necessarily names of specific ones. The Mouser is also an expert with the sling.

Famous quotes containing the words weapons and/or gray:

    I have always been of the mind that in a democracy manners are the only effective weapons against the bowie-knife.
    James Russell Lowell (1819–91)

    Freud’s eye was the microscope of potency.
    By fortune, his gray ghost may meditate
    The spirits of all the impotent dead, seen clear,
    And quickly understand, without their flesh,
    How truly they had not been what they were.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
