Draw/Sheath

[Elystole]

There's one set of verbs from DR that I really miss: <draw> and <sheath>.

The two verbs were linked. You'd first sheath a weapon in its appropriate container (<sheath handaxe in haft-frog>) to set it, and from that point you could <draw> it and it'd get it like normal. But since you drew it, you could then just <sheath> it and it'd automatically go back in that container without you specifying it. And it was specific to each weapon.

It seems like a small thing, but it made organization easier, it helps a lot in a fight when you need to change weapons, and it's a bit more RP-appropriate to draw and sheath weapons than just get them.

You put your exquisite steel handaxe in your haft-frog.
A haft-frog is now set as the default sheath for your exquisite steel handaxe.

EWRng>

You remove an exquisite steel handaxe from the haft-frog you are wearing.

EWRng>

So. Cool. Thanks!

I know it was asked earlier if the command 'draw' could be implemented, and it was declined as a way to get weapons from their sheath.

As a second idea, if we keep the command syntax 'get weapon' as it is, could we have first and third party messaging to the effect of 'he draws', vis.
