Assassin's spear

An Assassin's Spear is a +1 magical shortspear that conveys this magical enhancement bonus when used in melee combat, but if wielded as a throwing weapon, grants the wearer invisibility. The enhancement bonus does not function while the wielder is invisible in this way. A spear is worth around 8000 gold pieces.

History
The spear was made by a master assassin in the city of Amn who had become bored with all of the methods of killing people he had tried. He wanted to be able to kill people in a large crowd in a spectacular fashion and yet still escape undetected. He created five weapons in the form of spears, since these were often carried by city guards, but told no one of their powers. These five items are now scattered across Faerûn.
