OK, newbie question here from someone still in the process of reading FREd... what's a mourn staff? I tried a Web search but that only turned up a few HERO weapon lists which didn't explain what a mourn staff actually is... (For that matter, I've never heard of a weapon called a "ring"...) -- Pteryx

IIRC a mourn staff is a staff with a mourning star attached.

A mace with a really long handle.

IIRC, there's a picture of a mourn staff in UMA. It's a wooden handle about the length of a longsword with spike-like "teeth" clustered thickly all along the "blade."
