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

Quality

Sword Ordinary

-Sword- Well-crafted

+Sword+ Finely-crafted

*Sword* Superior quality

≡Sword≡ Exceptional

☼Sword☼ A masterpiece


Improvement / Decoration

«Sword» Improved or decorated

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≡»* Not possible[Verify] – improvement/decoration quality will only be shown if higher than base quality


Wear

xSwordx Showing some wear - worth 34

XSwordX Heavily worn or threadbare - worth 12

XXSwordXX In tatters or mangled - worth 14


Provenance / Ownership

(Sword) Not produced on-site, does not count towards wealth

{Sword} Unclaimed/Forbidden

$Sword$ Owned by someone else. Only appears in adventure mode.

Other

‼Sword‼ On fire

◀Sword► Magical (magic is not yet implemented)

The longest possible item designation is ‼{≡«+XX(Sword)XX+»≡}‼ (Is that in the right order?[Verify])
