===Race variants===

Weapons can have various race variants: Dwarven, Elven, Orcish, or Demonic.

'''Dwarven''' weapons are more resistant to corrosion than normal weapons. Dwarves do slightly more damage with dwarven weapons. Randomly generated dwarven weapons have 50% chance of being +1 to-hit, and 50% chance of being +1 to-damage, so dwarven weapons generally have better +x,+y bonuses.

'''Elven''' weapons give to hit bonuses to elves who wield them. They also have a chance of getting up to +2 to-hit bonus.

'''Orcish''' weapons give damage bonuses to orcs who wield them, followers of [[Beogh]] get even higher damage bonuses as their [[piety]] rises. And they have a 50% chance of getting -1 to hit, and a 50% chance of getting +1 to damage.

'''Demonic''' weapons have very strong base types. They are not variants, but a different type of weapon. [[Demonspawn]] get a bonus using demonic weapons.

Of course, all weapons have a chance of being enchanted. However, the race weapons have a chance of getting a little bit more.

==History==

Race variants were removed in [[0.14]].

+==Dwarven==
-Weapons can have various race variants: Dwarven, Elven, Orcish, or Demonic.
+Dwarven armour provides better protection when worn by any [[species]], though its added weight impedes spellcasting more than usual. Dwarves are protected even further, and they do not receive the additional spellcasting penalty.
-'''Dwarven''' weapons are more resistant to corrosion than normal weapons. Dwarves do slightly more damage with dwarven weapons. Randomly generated dwarven weapons have 50% chance of being +1 to-hit, and 50% chance of being +1 to-damage, so dwarven weapons generally have better +x,+y bonuses.
+In addition, all dwarven equipment is more resistant to corrosion than normal, providing an innate 80% chance to resist corrosion on top of any enchantment bonuses.
-'''Elven''' weapons give to hit bonuses to elves who wield them. They also have a chance of getting up to +2 to-hit bonus.
+==Elven==
-'''Orcish''' weapons give damage bonuses to orcs who wield them, followers of [[Beogh]] get even higher damage bonuses as their [[piety]] rises. And they have a 50% chance of getting -1 to hit, and a 50% chance of getting +1 to damage.
+Elven armour is lighter than usual, so it impedes spellcasting less than other types of armour when worn by any species. Elven [[cloak]]s and [[boots]] also grant a small bonus to [[stealth]]. Elven armour also grants increased protection when worn by elves.
-'''Demonic''' weapons have very strong base types. They are not variants, but a different type of weapon. [[Demonspawn]] get a bonus using demonic weapons.
+==Orcish==
-Of course, all weapons have a chance of being enchanted. However, the race weapons have a chance of getting a little bit more.
+Orcish armour grants better protection and reduced spell failure, but only when worn by hill orcs. Followers of Beogh get even more AC, depending on their piety.
 ==History==
+Racial variants were removed in [[0.14]].
