Snakehead guitar pick

Template:Summary/Items/Misc |description=An incredibly intricate, yet pointlessly cumbersome guitar pick, carved from stone and rumoured to give its bearer the power to get very sore fingers. It also makes a pretty nice blunt object for hurling at your enemies.

When Used

When used in combat against a hard rock snake

• Successful Attack

With a resounding cry of "KICKAPOOOOOO!" you hurl the pick at your opponent.

The pick sails true and lodges firmly in the snake's scales. It does not need (does not need) a microphone (a microphone) for you to hear its screams of rock-n-roll anguish caused by your (5-12) DAMAGE.

• Failed Attack

With a resounding cry of "KICKAPOOOOOO!" you hurl the pick at your opponent. It belts out a loud and tasty riff, sending your pick off course. Man, this just gets worse here every day.

When used in combat against everything else:

• Successful Attack

With a resounding cry of "KICKAPOOOOOO!" you hurl the pick at your opponent.

The pick strikes your opponent a glancing blow to the head, knocking off a piece of their horn and sending them straight back to hell.

Or rather, causing (5-12) DAMAGE, whatever works.

• Failed Attack

With a resounding cry of "KICKAPOOOOOO!" you hurl the pick at your opponent.

Your battle-cry was truly awesome, but your aim leaves something to be desired. The guitar pick misses (him/her/it) by a long way and hurtles off into the distance, leaving (him/her/it) more or less completely unaffected, if a little on the deaf side.

References

This item contains a number of references to The Pick Of Destiny, a truly awesome 2006 movie/rock opera starring the boys from Tenacious D, for example:

• The 'Battle Cry' of "KICKAPOOOOOO!" comes from the first song in the movie and is the name of Jack Black's home town.
• The quote "It does not need (does not need) a microphone (microphone)" comes from the song "Master Exploder".
• There are more, but seriously, figure it out for yourselves, I'm not going to give everything away. Sheesh!

As with everything in The Zweit-Childer Mine, there are also Guns N' Roses references. Find them yourselves too :)
