Description
The blowgun is a small metallic tube, which is used as a pretty handy weapon, although being pretty rare around the planet. By reloading it with various projectiles, such as berries for example, it is possible to fire fast and accurate shots. These weapons are given as rewards to any pupil of the School of Magic who successfully passes the Magic Ball test. The object itself is long and thin, coloured red and grey.
Role in Twinsen's adventure
Upon passing the Magic Ball test as part of his studies at the School of Magic, Twinsen received the blowgun as a reward. With it, he was able to walk around more safely around the planet, capable of defeating the rival esmers more easily. Although using this weapon very occasionally, it could come in handy sometimes.
Once reaching the Mosquibees Village, Twinsen had to pass the Test of Truth as a proof his good intentions. By passing this test, he earned as a reward a blowtron, a similar to yet more powerful weapon than the old blowgun, thus replacing the no-longer needed blowgun.
Trivia
After fully graduating from the School of Magic, Twinsen was able to come back to the room at which he passed the Magic Ball test. With his blowgun in his possession, the quetch found the test much easier, being able to reverse the magical symbols more conventiently thanks to the fast shot provided by the blowgun. In return for completing the test again, the quetch received a clover leaf.
