Wield

Command: wield <items>
The wield command allows you to wield weapons, permitting you to hit
opponents with them in battle. Typing 'wield sword' lets you use a sword,
if you have one. Note that if you are wearing a shield, you will not be
able to use certain weapons that are too large to be held in one hand.
Weapons MUST be wielded before they can be of use to you.

NOTE: By wielding a weapon, you indicate aggression, and intelligent beings
will take that as a threat and attack you. It is extremely unwise to walk
around a city with your sword out!
