Muck-encrusted pitchfork

The muck-encrusted pitchfork is the primary tool of the Apprentice at the beginning of her quest. Until she enters the Vaults of the Empire of the Dragon, the pitchfork is wholly mundane, but before the Apprentice enters the vaults she uses the book of blasphemies to possess the pitchfork with "some low evil presence". Following this act, the pitchfork's aura is visible to her second sight, as well as any other magic-user.
