Northern Spear

If you start as any northern tribesman, you have a good chance of starting with a Northern Spear. In addition to a cooler name, a Northern Spear also does triple the point damage as a Light Spear. The Northern Spear can also be used in place of a ski-stick. ''The northern spear has a long, sharp blade and it is used in hunting. It also has a special cross-piece usually in the dull end of the shaft, so that the spear can be used as a ski stick. ''-Game Encyclopedia
