Weapons

Base weapon stats go here.

Normal (non-magical) weapons are described herein.

All characters have proficiency with simple weapons. Simple weapons inflict one of three damage types (bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing), and their basic mechanics are given by their weight using the table below.

Weapon Type	Damage	Ability Score	Handedness
Light	1d6	Dex	One-hand or offhand
Medium	1d8	Dex or Str	One-hand
Heavy	1d10	Str	Two-hand

Weapon Type	Damage	Ability Score	Handedness	Range
Light	1d4	Dex	One-hand or offhand	30/120
Medium	1d6	Dex or Str	Two-hand	60/240
Heavy	1d8	Str	Two-hand	100/400

Martial weapons are made for war, designed for use by trained fighters. Only some classes have proficiency with these weapons. See Skills for details.
Any given martial weapon uses the mechanics of a Simple Weapon (see above), with one additional modifier from the list below.

Modifier	Description
Reach	+1 square of reach, -1 damage die
Hefty	+1 damage die, min 15 Str to wield (med/heavy only)
Parrying	+2 AC vs melee
Extended Range	Double range (ranged weapons only)
Throwable	Melee weapon doubles as ranged weapon of same category

For example, a longsword is a medium slashing weapon with the Parrying ability. Thus, it inflicts 1d8 slashing.

Superior Weapons

Some weapons are crafted superior to others. They may be of exceptional quality, or forged from unusual materials.

TBD

All weapons have one enhancement slot by default. Higher-quality weapons have more. Each magical enchantment takes up one slot.

Enchantment	Effect	Resource Cost
Flaming	Inflicts 1d6 bonus fire damage, or, if you spend 1 Mana, 3d6 fire plus 1d6 ongoing for 3 rds.	5 (major)
Frost	chilled (half speed and damage) (Con 13 ends).	5 (major)
Shocking	stunned for 1 rd (Con 13 negates).	5 (major)
