Hello, welcome to my user page on the Simple English Wikipedia! My name is Sgt. Detritus and the Piecemaker. It is a reference to Sgt. Detritus the Ankh-Morpork troll watchman in the Discworld novels by Terry Pratchett. The Piecemaker is the converted siege crossbow that Sgt. Detritus wields and has converted to fire arrows whole sheafs at a time. The spelling is because once fired the arrows tend to splinter instantly due to air friction and become a ball of fire. Thus, the Piecemaker is a weapon of piece rather than peace. Anyway, that's enough irrelevant material.
