I. Foreword
*************************************************************************
*************************************************************************
First off, for those of you who have read my Set Items List, this will NOT be anything like that. You see, rare items (items whose name appear in yellow) are not always the same. They will always have different attributes and defenses, and they are always made up of two word names. The first word doesn't have an effect on the type of item, but the second word does. I will NOT be giving lists of Rare items, as the possibilties for items could be endless. Instead, I will be giving lists of the Prefixes, and the suffixes, which will be grouped based on the item made by that word. I know this explanation is kind of hard to follow, but bear with me. You'll figure it out as we go along. Enjoy, and
I hope this helps, somehow.....?

**NOTE** Any word with an asterisk ( * ) means that the word goes with more than one item type. For instance, the word scythe is used more than once for several different types.
Just some heads up.

And, as always, if you have/know something that I don't, or notice a word used for two different items that I seem to have missed, PLEASE let me know at the e-mail address or
AIM s/n found at the top of this FAQ.

10/15/02 - v 1.0 - Yes, I know it has been a while since my first update, and yes,
I know that the version hasn't changed. This is simply an e-mail update, so all of my adoring fans (or angry delinquents) can e-mail me and receive a response (if so deserving).
Nothing more than that. Sorry. >=(
*THE ABOVE UPDATE HAS BEEN PLACED ON EVERY ONE OF MY FAQS. YOU ARE NOT HIGH AND/OR
HALLUCINATING.... AT LEAST I HOPE NOT*

6/19/02 - v 1.0 - First version up. I really enjoy doing these for this game. I dunno, there's just something about this game that makes FAQs more fun to make than normally.
But I digress. I hope this guide is good enough for all you nitpickers out there. >=)
