Item Descriptions in Kharne are pretty boring currently.
For example:
An Iron Hand Axe [+0, +0]
Location: Wielded
Type: 1-handed Weapon
Weight: 10 lbs
Slot: Main Hand
Damage: 1d6+0
How about this for an alternative description?
An Iron Hand Axe [+0, +0]
This is a large metal-headed axe designed to either chop down trees or chop down your enemies with equal gusto. It is made out of iron and is inscribed with the initials "E.M.". It is of average quality, and is slightly dented.
It weighs 10 lbs and is designed to be held in your main hand. You are currently wielding it. It does 1d6 damage normally.
Or for a magical version:
An Iron Hand Axe [+3, +5] of the Torrents
This is a large metal-headed axe designed to either chop down trees or chop down your enemies with equal gusto. It is made out of iron, covered in orcish runes and plated with mithril. It is well made.
It weighs 10 lbs and is designed to be held in your main hand. You are currently wielding it. It does 1d6 damage normally.
This item has been enchanted. It increases your chance to hit (+3). It does extra damage (+5). It increases your resistance to Water Magic (+18)

I think a mix of both would be best. Separate the pure data from the more colorful description.
So leave this exactly how it is:
Location: Wielded
Type: 1-handed Weapon
Weight: 10 lbs
Slot: Main Hand
Damage: 1d6+0
So I can quickly view stats. Then add the flavorful text in addition to.
