Pitchforks and (burning) torches. Every angry mob needs them!

Well, could you settle for dung-forks and burning candles?

NAY!

Candles are made from wax, torches should be made from wood and some cloth drenched in oil (sailcloth or cloth plus oil). Also, candles are good for romantic diners, you don't go to a forest with a candle, you don't chase someone acused for witchcraft with candles, you don't go inside tombs with candles. You use torches!
Also, Aragorn whooped a Nazguls ass on Weathertop with a torch not a candle... You get the point?

With the dungfork...
Funny fact... a dungfork is translated to polish as "motyka", which in english means "hoe" (a tool). So, polish characters are using hoes instead dungforks. Funny, ay?

Can't you change dungforks to pitchforks? It sounds more awsome.

Well, we could call them "flaming mithril trident of scarab slaying". That would sound even more awesome. Maybe we could make a poll.

As for torches, I guess we could make them from wood and some sailcloth, wood and bitumen or just wood alone. Sounds like a sensible addition.

"Flaming mithril trident of scarab slaying" is a good name, I like your thinking.

The torches would be a nice rp element.
