A '''silver mace''' is a type of [[weapon]] that appears in [[SporkHack]]. It is a one-handed [[melee]] weapon that uses the [[mace]] [[skill]], and is made of [[silver]].

The silver mace is the [[base item]] for the [[artifact]] [[Demonbane (SporkHack)|Demonbane]].

==Generation==
Silver maces are not generated randomly, though they can be [[wish]]ed for or found in [[bones]].

==Description==
The silver mace has the same [[weight]] as a regular mace in contrast to ''[[NetHack]]'', where silver variants of existing weapons are usually 120% heavier. It has the same base damage as a mace as well, dealing 1d6+1 damage against [[small]] [[monster]]s and 1d6 damage against large ones before [[enchantment]]s and bonuses.
