  • Flame Baton - A long porous stick balanced like a sword, it has a hollow inside filled with oil that drips through the woods pores allowing a long continuous flame without damaging the wood much.
  • Spear Torch - A spear shaft thicker on the "tip" half for the balance of a real spear, with an oil dipped cloth wrapped around the tip end to be ignited.
• Archers
  • Bow - As well as a quiver full of igniteable arrows (both tipped and untipped). These are dipped into flame braziers located throughout the wall defences.

Tactics

The Wall Watch's main goal is to protect the city of Arlint and its population from the Mist Wraiths in mists outside the city. It is known that fire is the best weapon against the creatures, so instead of swords, ground troops use specialized torches to attack, they also wear leather torso wraps coated in whale oil that can be set on fire by a friendly archer on the wall if the soldier finds himself under attack and in the hands of the wraiths.
