Weapons

The following weapons are in addition to all official weapons (although they are much less commonly utilized), which count as Common items, and replace official firearms.

Simple Weapons

Simple Melee Weapons

Bat

Simple Melee Weapons

Weapon	Cost	Damage	Weight	Properties
Bat	5 sp	1d4 bludgeoning	3 lb.	Brace, versatile (1d6)

This single piece of shaped wood is a little under 3 feet long. One end is thin and often wrapped in tape for gripping, while the other end is thicker to carry the weight of swings. A bat is typically designed to intercept balls and rocks thrown in "stickball" games, but one can be surprisingly effective at intercepting enemies too. In locales where weapons are banned, this mere "toy" can be the most reliable means of self-defense.

Brace. If you make a melee attack with a brace weapon as part of an attack you prepared with the Ready action, you have advantage on the attack roll. You must be proficient with the weapon to gain this benefit.

Eku

Simple Melee Weapons

Weapon	Cost	Damage	Weight	Properties
Eku	5 gp	1d8 bludgeoning	13 lbs.	Heavy, Two-handed, Special

An eku is a large, often wooden, paddle-like weapon. It started off as rowing oars used by sailors to defend themselves in the event of an attack, but it has since splintered off from its origins and has become its own distinct weapon. An eku can still be used to row a boat, but it is more difficult and the boat will not be as fast. The wielder of an eku can strike with either the flat section or the ridge, and sometimes the ridge is even sharpened and metallic.

Special. You can attack with the ridge of the weapon, dealing slashing damage, instead of bludgeoning.

Ikakalaka

Simple Melee Weapons

Weapon	Cost	Damage	Weight	Properties
Ikakalaka	30 gp	1d6 slashing	6 lb.	Special

Machete

Weapon	Cost	Damage	Weight	Properties
Machete	10 gp	1d6 slashing	20.5 ½ lb.	—

Scythe

Simple Melee Weapons

Weapon	Cost	Damage	Weight	Properties
Scythe	2 gp	1d10 slashing	4 lb.	Heavy, two-handed

This weapon is inspired by the common farming implement used to cut swaths of grown hay, but it has a straight handle and a heavier blade. Despite its humble origins, the scythe is recognized as a symbol of death in many cultures because of its use in reaping. Rather than being too heavy for most smaller creatures, the scythe is too long for Small creatures to wield effectively.

Wakizashi

Simple Melee Weapons

Weapon	Cost	Damage	Weight	Properties
Wakizashi	5 gp	1d6 slashing	1 lb.	Finesse, Versatile (1d8)

Similar in shape to other curved, single-bladed swords, wakazashi range between slightly shorter than a katana, referred to as an ō-wakazashi, to slightly longer than a tanto, referred to as a kō-wakazashi. They were primarily wielded alongside a katana as a status symbol to differentiate an average katana-wielding nobody with a samurai. This pair is referred to as a “daishō”, literally “big-little”.

Pump Shotgun	Common	1d8 piercing	7 lb.	Ammunition (range 30/90), long reload (6 shots), spread (1d6), two-handed, loading

Shotguns fire a large spread of small, relatively low velocity projectiles with a single shot. While initially introduced into the military, their simple production and the use of body armor have made them mostly a non-issue for military personnel, leading to them being widespread on the civilian market.

Revolver

Simple Ranged Weapons

Weapon	Cost	Damage	Weight	Properties
Revolver	Common	2d8 piercing	1 lb.	Ammunition (range 30/300), long reload (6 shots)

Despite using rudimentary technology, revolvers have stood the test of time as reliable weapons capable of handling larger rounds without may chamber pressure limitations. Due to their simple design, they can typically take larger rounds than a handgun.

On a failure, they are incapacitated and their movement speed is reduced to 0 until the end of their next turn. On a success, their movement speed is cut in half until the end of their next turn. If a creature fails by 5 or more, they are stunned until the end of their next turn instead. Creatures that are resistant to lightning damage have advantage on this saving throw, and creatures that are immune to lightning damage are immune to this effect.

Special. You can press a switch on the knife to cause it shoot outwards, making a special melee attack with it with a reach of 30 ft. which deals 4d4 piercing damage on a hit instead of its normal damage.

Using two hands, you hold the weapon almost like you would a classic jump rope, proficiency allowing you to pull off amazing twists, twirls, and lashes during close combat. Using one hand, you hold the weapon like a whip with both handles in one hand, making a loop, and flinging one of the cylinders out to slash your target with the razor wire.

Special. When you wield the battle wire in one hand, it is also considered to have the reach property.

The blade of a ko-naginata was smaller than the male warrior's ō-naginata in order to compensate for the lesser height and upper body strength of a woman than an armoured male samurai. The weapon is too cumbersome to be effectively wielded by smaller creatures, while still being balanced for nimble fast flourishes and agile combat styles in either one or two hands by medium or larger sized creatures.
