Shortsword

Swords cover a variety of hilt blade weapons, designed for cutting or thrusting strikes. Note that at each size, there are two versions; one straight-bladed, one curved. Short Swords are straight thrusting weapons, much like a dagger, but with a longer blade (typically around 2 feet). The Cutlass group represents short blades – curved or straight single-edged – designed for hacking or slashing rather than thrusting. This includes the aforementioned cutlass, hangars, and machetes, as well as short reverse-curve blades such as the kukri and kopis. Long Swords represent a wide range of straight bladed swords, primarily designed for one-handed use. Stats: cost 6 gp • size S • weight 3 lbs • damage 1d6.
