Bottle-rocket crossbow
This is a portable crossbow with a special attachment that lets it fire lit bottle rockets in addition to regular bolts. It's a combination of festive and deadly that could only be done justice by creating an entirely new word. I'd like to suggest "deastive."

Shoots Bottle-Rockets!
NOTE: This item cannot be equipped while in Hardcore. Bottle-rockets cost 5 MP to fire. Red Bottle-rocket (hot damage) You fire a red bottle-rocket at your opponent. It whizzes in circles around him, pelting him with X damage worth of hot, hot sparks. Blue Bottle-rocket (cold damage) You fire a blue bottle-rocket at your opponent. It whizzes in circles above him, coating him with fake snow and dealing X damage. Orange Bottle-rocket You fire an orange bottle-rocket at your opponent. He is is showered in orange sparks, and is none too happy about it. Purple Bottle-rocket (sleaze damage) You fire a purple bottle-rocket at your opponent. It hits him for X damage before exploding into the shape of a rude gesture. Black Bottle-rocket You fire a black bottle-rocket at your opponent. It whizzes in circles around his head, shrounding him in thick, choking black smoke.
(In-game plural: bottle-rocket crossbows)
Notes
- July 2007's special of the month from Mr. Store.
- Its Mr. Store description is/was:
- A nifty weapon that lets you shoot bottle-rockets at your enemies. Those bottle-rockets do -- you guessed it -- various things!
- This item was released a few days late due to NS13 delays.
- This item was equippable in hardcore for a few minutes after release.
- The +15% Moxie boost was non-functional for a few minutes after release.
- Allows you to fire bottle-rockets (red, blue, orange, purple and black).
- "Deastive" is an example of a portmanteau.
- You are limited to firing one bottle-rocket per adventure.
References
- An obvious reference to Independence Day in the United States and Canada Day in Canada, since both celebrations involve fireworks.
- A combination of two words which form an entirely new word is a portmanteau.
