WEAPON ATTRIBUTES

high Strength.

Weight: The weight of the item.
Some weapons also have magical attributes:
Fire: This weapon can do fire damage to an opponent when it hits.
Keen: This weapon has an increased chance of scoring critical hits.

SHOPKEEPERS
Over the course of the game, you’ll encounter shopkeepers you can buy
and sell items from. To open their shops, simply speak to them, and
you’ll be given a choice as to whether to buy or sell items, then you’ll be
taken to a sub-screen which resembles the character inventory screen.
Carrying Capacity: This lists the percentage of the character’s total
carrying capacity that is currently being used. You cannot carry more
than 100% of your carrying capacity... you must either drop or sell
something first in order to make room for new items.
Gold Piece Total: This is the total number of gold pieces your
character has.
Weapons Tab: When this tab is selected, it will show all the weapons
the shopkeeper has for sale, or it will show all the weapons in your
inventory, depending on whether you’re buying or selling.
