<sup>1</sup> Reach weapon.
+
<sup>2</sup> When you make an attack with this weapon, choose which type of damage you deal.
+
 
+
<div id="Greatspear">
+
'''Greatspear'''
+
: A greatspear has reach; you can strike opponents 10 feet away with it, but you can't strike adjacent foes.
+
 
+
: This broad-bladed spear has a long, flat blade, and is too heavy to wield properly without proficiency.
+
</div>
+
 
+
<div id="Gremlin_Wrench">
+
'''Gremlin Wrench'''
+
: Much more complicated than a standard spanner, the gremlin wrench is useful both as a tool and as a weapon.
+
 
+
: When using a gremlin wrench, you get a +4 bonus on opposed attack rolls made to disarm an opponent (including the roll to keep from being disarmed if the attack fails). If you successfully disarm someone with a gremlin wrench, you can make attack rolls with the weapon at a -4 penalty while wielding the gremlin wrench; if the weapon is a two-handed weapon, you suffer an additional -4 penalty to use it (for a total of -8).
+
 
+
: You can use the gremlin wrench as an additional tool when making ''repair'' checks. A gremlin wrench gives you a +1 equipment bonus on Repair checks. A masterwork gremlin wrench gives you a +2 equipment bonus instead.
+
 
+
<div id="Katana">
+
'''Katana'''
+
: The preferred weapon of the west, the katana is essentially a specialized bastard sword. All katanas are automatically masterwork (this is reflected in the cost, above).
+
</div>
+
 
+
<div id="Poleaxe_Heavy">
+
'''Poleaxe, Heavy'''
+
: A heavy poleaxe has reach; you can strike opponents 10 feet away with it, but you can't strike adjacent foes.
+
 
+
: Normally, you strike with the heavy poleaxe's head, but the spike on the end is useful against charging opponents. If you use a ready action to set a heavy poleaxe against a charge, you deal double damage if you score a hit against a charging creature.
+
</div>
+
 
+
<div id="Propeller">
+
'''Propeller'''
+
: Used for aircraft, the propeller also makes for a useful weapon.
+
 
+
: Propellers use the same rules as boomerangs, except they deal lethal slashing damage instead of nonlethal bludgeoning damage.
+
 
+
<div id="Propeller_Blade">
+
'''Propeller-Blade'''
+
: A propeller-blade is one of the blades from a propeller, often with a wooden "handle," and a blade that twists slightly.
+
 
+
<div id="Rug">
+
'''Rug'''
+
: While the vast majority of actual rugs are constructed of normal cloths, rugs fabricated for combat use are typically made of [[Steelcloth | steelcloth]]. Characters proficient with a rug may use a normal rug as a weapon, but such a weapon normally only deals nonlethal damage. A character actively defending herself with a rug gains half again as much benefit from doing so (if the character normally gains +4 to AC while fighting defensively, she would instead gain +6 while wielding a rug). In addition, the rug is a reach weapon, allowing the wielder to strike creatures within a 10 foot range; the rug can be used to hit adjacent opponents, as well. The rug is a ''martial arts weapon''.
+
</div>
+
 
+
<div id="Halfling_Sarrash">
+
'''Sarrash, Halfling'''
+
: A halfling sarrash has reach; you can strike opponents 10 feet away with it, but you can't strike adjacent foes.
+
 
+
: Similar to a scythe, the halfling sarrash developed by the halflings in the age of the Ronkan Empire consists of a sickle-like blade at the end of a long pole.
+
 
+
: Because of a sarrash's curved blade, you can also use it to make trip attacks. If you are tripped during your own trip attempt, you can drop the sarrash to avoid being tripped.
+
 
+
: [[Halfling|Halflings]] (Highlander and [[Halfling#Lowlander_Halfling|Lowlander]] halflings, but not [[Halfling#Outrider_Halfling|Outrider]] halflings) have weapon familiarity in regards to the halfling sarrash, and thus treat it as a martial weapon.
+
</div>
+
 
+
<div id="Sash">
+
'''Sash'''
+
: Typically constructed of lightweight [[Steelcloth | steelcloth]], the sash is a vicious weapon in the appropriate hands. A character proficient with a sash can use a normal cloth sash as a weapon, but such a weapon normally only deals nonlethal damage. The sash is a ''martial arts weapon''.
+
</div>
+
 
+
<div id="Zweihandir">
+
'''Zweihandir'''
+
: With a long history of use, the zweihandir is the epitome of weaponry designed for front-line fighters. Normal humanoids must use their knee or similar appendage to brace the weapon; as such, actively wielding a zweihandir reduces the wielder's movement speeds by half, to a minimum of 5 feet.
+
</div>
+
 
+
=Firearms=
+
In addition to standard weaponry, Trinity is home to firearms. A firearm is a relatively complex piece of technological apparatus. Unlike most other weapons, they have nothing to do with physical strength: they draw power from chemical combustion or other form of propulsion.
+
 
+
'''Physical Description:''' Firearms vary wildly in appearance. More basic firearms are typically less ornamented but have complex firing mechanisms; more complex firearms have more technological apparatus, but these parts are usually concealed in the weapon itself.
+
 
+
'''Usage:''' Firearms are used just like normal weapons, though they have some special rules regarding their use.
+
 
+
'''Templates:''' Firearms are incredibly more versatile than most other weapons, lending themselves to modifications much easier. A trained student can make such modifications to firearms he builds. However, adding such modifications requires more resources and more materials. A firearm can have one receiver template and one feed template. Unless other templates have been applied to them, all basic firearms are considered to have the Muzzleloaded feed and Individually-Loaded receiver templates; all advanced firearms are considered to have the Breechloaded feed and Individually-Loaded receiver templates.
