BOZTHARK
Bozthark, the Mighty Mace of Mumbo, is one
of the most powerful magical weapons ever found. It shimmered with
arcane power, which was able to help its wielder overcome even the most
ferocious of enemies (and also sported quite a few large spikes).
This mace was the weapon of choice for King
Mumbo II. He is said to
have had a particular affection for it, and named it after a pet turtle
that he owned as a young child. He always carried it into battle,
saying that while holding the mace it was only fitting that he advanced
very slowly while the rest of his army raced ahead. Bozthark was said
to have been enchanted by the court wizards to be lighter, tougher, and
to enable the shaft retreat into the head when danger threatened.
During the
Great Monster Uprising, Bozthark, which had found its way in
the hands of the
Grand Wizard, was awarded to an adventurer for
assisting him in the defeat of
Frizzlebits.
