Attempting something...

Never much agreed with "Throw", so I'm trying to alter somethings. Been looking all day through various disassembles and ff6usme and can't find what i'm looking for.
1.) I want to change the elemental damage of Water edge to wind.
2.)I want to make the command not consume the objects. So that when used you don't need to replenish supply.
3.)I want to change the animations for thrown items, scrolls and stars both.
4.)Completely unrelated, how could I go about giving characters certain Items when they rejoin the party.

I have put a good solid 6 hours into researching this, and i definitely don't have the experience yet to poke around aimlessly in the code hoping to find this. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
