A trident is a type of spear designed for use in fishing.
Usage
It has decent defensive capabilities but is not an especially deadly weapon, though it is nearly as effective as many other spears and can be thrown a short distance. The trident is a two-handed weapon and its combat effectiveness is modified by the Spear skill.
URW Game Encyclopedia description
The official URW in-game encyclopedia (accessed by the F1 key) describes the trident thusly:
Trident is a triple-pointed spear. Trident is commonly used in fishing. When used as a combat weapon it attacks no better (sometimes worse) than a spear, but its three prongs gives it a somewhat better defensive capacity.
