![]() ![]() What they care for is sheer brutality and ability to kill.Īn-gresh: These swords are crudely made, but somehow, they're still effective. Orcs have no use for practicality, or grace, or anything like that, especially not in their weapons. If used right, the momentum is enormous, and the weapon can deal devastating blows. The hammer is held in the middle to let the counterweigt do its work. The dwarven greathammer features a long handle, a massive head on one side, and a small counter-weight on the other. Greathammer: Used to turn rocks into rubble, break through obstacles, and turn enemies into pulp. They want weapons that are tools, too, so they neither carry something around all day they only need in emergencies, but won't be helpless in emergencies because they wanted to loose the extra baggage. There's a gnomish saying based on it: "The ribbons have come off", meaning that fun and games are over and things are getting dead serious.ĭwarves are pragmatic. When the ribbons come off, though, it's hard to spot them in the forest at all, and a gnome you can't spot can be quite dangerous. This is intentional, as gnomes usually want to proclaim their arrival. Gnomes typically adorn the spearhead with brightly-coloured ribbons, which results in them being seen long before you see the gnome itself (the spears are longer than the gnomes are tall). They're never quite straight and look quite natural (other races sometimes adapt the weapon, but usually follow more mundane techniques to create the weapons). Traditional feyspears are made from a single piece of wood, including the spearhead, which is formed and hardened by gnome druids using fey magic. You can still use it to attack adjacent targets. Gnomes found a way to off-set their short stature, actually get the reach advantage on many foes, and turn the whole thing into a spectacle, too.įeyspear:The feyspear is a bit longer than a normal spear, but not as long as a longspear, just long enough to gain reach with a bit of special training. The cradle is strengthened to serve as a bludgeon. Their solution is the halfling flailsling. It features a long but slim blade, perfectly balanced for both hand-to-hand combat and throwing.įlailsling: Halflings like slings, but the fact that if you use one, you leave yourself open to melee attacks never set well with them. Longknife: The halfling longknife is a variation on the dagger. ![]() Why use a weapon that can fill one role if you can have one that fills two? Halflings favour weapons they can use with agility rather than brute strength, and also value versatility. I won't bother with the legal stuff, but as far as I'm concerned, they're open content, blablabla. The whole exercise is to create such weapons. Just to add, all those weapons are applicable for weapon familiarity by the respective races. As usual, the composite elven strongbow is treated as an elven strongbow for the purpose of feats like weapon focus. Every point over 0 costs an additional 150 gp. The standard composite elven strongbow is supports a +0 Strength score. Strongbow, composite elven: Like other composite bows, composite elven strongbows are made with a specific strength score in mind. You can use weapon finesse with this weaponĪn-gresch, orc: Although you can use this weaponin one hand, using it in two hands will lend extra lethality to your attacks, increasing the crit multiplierįeyspear, gnome: This weapon has reach, but you can still attack adjacent targets.įlailsling, halfling: Though this is a ranged weapon, you can make melee attacks with it without penalty.
