|noun=arbalest
|look=The dark and heavily lacquered wooden shaft is patterned to resemble a dragon's scales.  Riveted tightly below the lath, a damite stirrup allows the weapon to stay in place when being reloaded.  A multitude of silvery grey steelsilk strands are woven snugly together, creating a high-tension string to launch projectiles at dangerous speeds.
