Krime Weapons Trollbow
On a trip to England to try to set up a trade deal, a Krime sales team got to watch an archery competition, largely because the beer was on special.

There were questions about the company making such an “elfy” weapon, but after watching an arrow go through a radiator, the doubters immediately changed their tune, only demanding that engineers add blades onto the form so that it could have some proper “troll horns.” Krime believes they have perfected the modern archery weapon for the Sixth World: the Trollbow!

AquaDyne Shark-SX Harpoon Gun
Whether used to spear fish, defend against some of the more aggressive denizens of the oceans, or remind other sentient swimmers that what you’ve found beneath the waves belongs to you, the AquaDyne Shark can be a valuable asset. Powered by CO2 and possessing an internal magazine, the Shark doesn’t stop after just one pull of the trigger, a feature that has saved many a diver that trusted the AquaDyne brand. For the sport fisherman, the Shark features the QuickClip line system that makes setting up for the next catch faster than ever.
