Crowbar

A crowbar, pry bar, or prying bar, was a tool used by dungeoneers and criminals to pry objects apart and for general demolition.

Description
These tools were essentially iron bars designed in a way to pry open chests or doors. They could be forged by blacksmiths via the use of molds or potentially found on a robe of useful items. Crowbars could also be used as improvised bludgeoning weapons.

Crowbars were a part of standard adventuring gear, and when their leverage was applied, they could break open locks. They were often contained in standard adventurers' packs, such as burglar's packs and dungeoneer's packs.

History
These implements were smithed and sold in various places across Faerûn. The Conyberry Arms sold particularly poor equipment, such as locks that could only be opened with crowbars, and naturally, crowbars themselves.

In the 14 century DR, Auril's followers in Mirabar begun to act very strangely. They started to attack their temple's walls with prybars and pickaxes, potentially searching for a sacred treasure.
