Inactive:

Active:

“ This grenade is active, and will explode any second now. Better throw it! ”

Notes

• Basic blast is a 3x3 blast dealing 36 damage at the origin.
• Total damage dealt is contained within a 5x5 radius.
• Creates noise with a volume of 120.
• Doesn't light fires.
• Most of the damage is dealt by its 28 shrapnel shards that fire between 1 and 2 squares away from the explosion site, each dealing 20-60 points of damage.

A well-positioned grenade can reliably fell all but the greatest enemies.
