Description

A metal brand on a sturdy metal shaft.

A tool for branding animals to say they belong to a certain deed (settlement).

Messages given when branding:

You prepare to brand [animal, e.g. Young fat horse].
Determined, you raise your branding iron.
The [animal] makes a [verb, usually "horrible", reportedly "pleasant" rarely] sound as you press your branding iron against it.

When examined after branding, it will say: "It has been been branded by and belongs to the settlement of [settlement]."

Branding iron can only be used on animals that are lead-able.
