Simple Weapons

Baton: Also called a tonfa, this is the melee weapon carried by most police forces, used to subdue and restrain criminals. A character can deal nonlethal damage with a baton without taking the usual –4 penalty. A baton is a special martial arts weapon that may be used with a martial artist's increased rate of attacks.

Catclaw: A leather strap or glove with blades fitted onto the back, a character wielding a catclaw deals lethal slashing damage with an unarmed strike instead of nonlethal bludgeoning damage. A strike with a cat- claw is otherwise considered an unarmed attack. You cannot be disarmed of a catclaw.

When used by a character with the Improved Unarmed Strike feat, catclaws increase the base damage dealt by an unarmed strike by +1. However, the character still deals lethal damage unless he or she takes a -4 penalty to the attack roll.

Double-Stick: A light flail made of wood, the double-stick (also called shuang-jie-gun or nunchaku) is a special martial arts weapon, and so a martial artist wielding a double-stick may attack with his fists of fury attack bonus. With a double-stick, you get a +2 bonus on opposed attack rolls made to disarm an enemy (including the roll to avoid being disarmed if such an attempt fails).

Metal Knuckle: A piece molded metal that fits over the outside of a character’s fingers, or a glove or leather strap with metal studs in it, a knuckle allows someone to deal lethal damage with an unarmed strike instead of nonlethal damage. A strike with a metal knuckle is otherwise considered an unarmed attack. You cannot be disarmed of a metal knuckle.

When used by a character with the Improved Unarmed Strike feat, brass knuckles increase the base damage dealt by an unarmed strike by +1. However, the character still deals lethal damage unless he or she takes a -4 penalty to the attack roll.

Piercer: Also called an emei or a siangham, a piercer is a special martial arts weapon and can be used with the martial artist's increased rate of unarmed attacks.

Pistol Whip: Using a pistol as a melee weapon can deal greater damage than attacking unarmed. No weight or cost is given for this weapon, since both vary depending on the pistol used.

Pikestaff: A heavier stick-weapon than the quarterstaff, the pikestaff is a two-handed weapon rather than a double-weapon.

Rifle Butt: The butt of a musket can be used as an impromptu club.

Spiked Knuckle: A metal knuckle, leather strap, or glove fitted with spikes that allow a character to deal lethal damage with an unarmed strike instead of nonlethal damage. A strike with a spiked knuckle is otherwise considered an unarmed attack. You cannot be disarmed of a spiked knuckle.

When used by a character with the Improved Unarmed Strike feat, spiked knuckles increase the base damage dealt by an unarmed strike by +1. However, the character still deals lethal damage unless he or she takes a -4 penalty to the attack roll.

Throwing Spike: These light darts are also called fei-biao or shuriken. A throwing spike is a special martial arts weapon which can be used with a martial artist's fists of fury attack bonus. A throwing spike can’t be used as a melee weapon.

Although they are thrown weapons, throwing spikes are treated as ammunition for the purposes of drawing them, crafting masterwork or otherwise special versions of them, and what happens to them after they are thrown.

Unarmed Strike, Brawl: Fighting with unarmed strikes is called brawling. Brawl attacks are treated as double-weapons for all characters, not just martial artists.

Martial Weapons

Bayonet (Fixed): The statistics given describe a bayonet fixed at the end of a longarm with an appropriate mount. With the bayonet fixed, the longarm becomes a double weapon—clublike at one end and spearlike at the other. A character can fight with it as if fighting with two weapons, but if the

character does so, he or she incurs all the normal attack penalties associated with fighting with two weapons, as if using a one-handed weapon and a light weapon.

Cutlass: The cutlass is a short, heavy, slightly curved blade useful for both stabbing and slashing. Its heavy basket hilt gives the wielder a +2 equipment bonus on any checks to resist being disarmed.

Maul: Bigger than a warhammer, the maul is a large two-handed weapon favored by ogres and other brutes. A character with Exotic Weapon Proficiency (maul) can use the weapon in one hand.

Saber: The saber is a long, heavy sword specialized for use in mounted combat. You gain a +1 equipment bonus on your attack rolls when you use a saber while mounted (horse or a vehicle such as a motorcycle).

Exotic Weapons

Three-Section Staff: Originally a farm implement for threshing grain, this weapon (also called san-jie-gun) is composed of three sections of wood of equal lengths, joined at the ends by chain, leather, or rope. The three-section staff requires two hands to use. The three-section staff is a double weapon. A character can fight with it as if fighting with two weapons, but if he or she does, the character incurs all the normal attack penalties associated with fighting with two weapons, as if using a one-handed weapon and a light weapon.

The three-section staff is a special martial arts weapon and may be used with the martial artist's fists of fury.

Khopesh: This bizarre sword is popular in Mephret, on the continent of Oberonia. The khopesh looks like a normal longsword whose blade suddenly turns sickle-shaped about a foot from the hilt. It is heavy and awkward to use without a lot of training. You can use the khopesh to make trip attacks due to its hooklike blade.

Two-Headed Spear: One of the few double-weapons common to Færith, you can fight with a two-headed spear as if fighting with two weapons, one one-handed and one light.
