A '''dark elven spear''' is a type of [[weapon]] that appears in [[EvilHack]]. It is a one-handed weapon that can be used in melee and thrown, and uses the [[spear]] [[skill]]. It is made of [[adamantine]], and appears as an '''etched spear''' when [[identification|unidentified]].

==Generation==
[[Drow (starting race)|Drow]] characters start the game with knowledge of the dark elven spear - any drow character in a role that starts the game with spears will receive the same amount of dark elven spears, though there are no roles where this substitution occurs.

A dark elven spear can be created at a [[Forge (dungeon feature)|forge]] by combining 2 [[Dark elven arrow (EvilHack)|dark elven arrows]] and a [[Dark elven dagger (EvilHack)|dark elven dagger]] while the forge is darkened.
