This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

Some items have characters surrounding the name, which is a way to determine certain properties at a glance.

Quality[edit]

Sword Ordinary

-Sword- Well-crafted (dashes/hypens)

+Sword+ Finely-crafted (plus signs/addition signs)

*Sword* Superior quality (asterisks/stars)

≡Sword≡ Exceptional (equivalents/triple equal signs)

SwordA masterpiece (stars/open stars/circle stars)

See Item quality for a full explanation of how better qualities improve value and combat modifiers.

Improvement / Decoration[edit]

«Sword» Improved or decorated (much-less-than and much-greater-than signs/double less-than or greater than signs)

Decoration can have a quality modifier themselves, leading to combinations such as:

*«Sword»* Superior improvement/decoration

≡«+Sword+»≡ Exceptional improvement/decoration on a finely-crafted object

*«≡Sword≡»* Exceptional sword with superior decoration

These quality modifiers can be hidden in init.txt with [SHOW_IMP_QUALITY:NO].

Wear[edit]

xSwordx Showing some wear - worth 34 (surrounded by x's)

XSwordX Heavily worn or threadbare - worth 12 (surrounded by capital X's)

XXSwordXX In tatters or mangled - worth 14 (surrounded by double capital XX's)

Provenance / Ownership[edit]

(Sword) Not produced on-site (imported by traders or looted from raiders), does not count towards Created Wealth. (parentheses)

{Sword} Unclaimed/Forbidden (braces)

$Sword$ Owned by someone else. Only appears in adventure mode. (dollar signs)

Other[edit]

‼Sword‼ On fire (double exclamation points)

◄Sword► Magical (as of 51.01) (forward and backward triangles)

Trivia[edit]

The longest possible item designation is ‼XX({≡«+Sword+»≡})XX‼, which designates (reading from the front) that it's on fire ( ), in tatters ( XX ), imported ( ( ), forbidden ( { ), exceptionally ( ≡ ) decorated ( « ), and of fine quality ( + ).
