This article is about the physical item. For the multiple-target spells, see Bolt spells.

Name Bolt
Launcher crossbow
Base damage 9
A metal projectile, shorter than an arrow, intended to be shot from a crossbow.

"In the midst of our last assault, which would have carried the gate sure and given us Paris and in effect France, Joan was struck down by a crossbow bolt, and our men fell back instantly and almost in a panic - for what were they without her? She was the army, herself."

-Mark Twain, _Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc, by the Sieur Louis de Conte_, Book II, chap. 40 "Treachery Conquers Joan". 1896.

Bolts are ammunition fired from crossbows, and are much more common and easy to find than their launchers, which only become common once yaktaurs start showing up. They may have the following brands:
