Creating Item Descriptions?

Quick question! Is there anyway that upon pickup of an item... Say for example the Mastersword, I want a string to pop up and say something cool..."you feel the power course through you" bla bla... Anyway, is there a possible way of doing so? Without scripting?

Sorry, I'm afraid this can only be done with scripting.
But here's a simple script for that:

Code:

---

item script Message{
        void run(int m){
                Screen->Message(m);
        }
}
