OK, that sounds reasonable.
Hey, speaking of weapons, an NPC I'm creating carries a customized
dikoted katana...which just happens to lack an edge (pacifist flaw).
My reasoning is because it is not edged, the dikoting process won't
raise the damage code, but will raise the damage level and add an
additional die for defense. However, will the weapon do damage as a
club (because it basically is) or will the damage be special?
Secondly, does this fall under edged weapons or clubs? Lastly, since
the weapon is made of titanium, will the broken bones and smashed
vertebrae this unusual weapon will undoubtedly cause count as physical
or mental damage?
Also, a friend of mine is thinking of creating a troll that carries a
sword that's about 5 feet tall, 3 feet thick from edge to edge, and
somewhere in the 15-20 pound range. According to him, it's long
enough and heavy enough to cleave a Ford Americar in half. Anyone
care to give some damage modifiers to this monstrosity?
Lastly, I forget: if a melee weapon is held with both hands, how much
more damage would it do (if applicable)?
