Weapons

Action Points: This details the number of Action Points necessary to use the weapon.
Parry: The bonus or penalty the weapon grants the character on a Defense Roll when the weapon is used to parry an attack.
Hurt: The amount of damage the weapon does on its own, which is factored into the Attack Roll.
Capacity: In the case of weapons which require ammunition, this is the typical number of shots which can be fired before a reload is necessary.
Type: The type of Hurt the weapon inflicts. Either Slashing, Bludgeoning, or Piercing. Certain spells, items and armor protect better against certain types of Hurt. Bludgeoning weapons can be used to knock targets unconscious instead of killing them when they reach 0 HP.
Notes: Any relevant notes about the weapon.
Cost: The cost in crowns/sovereigns(𝕤) to buy the weapon in new condition crowns/sovereigns(𝕤). When selling a used weapon, a character can expect to get half this value in return.

Weapons marked with a (†) are fast weapons. These weapons are small or light and easy to conceal and grant a character a +2 bonus on Thievery/Disguise checks to conceal them.

Weapons marked with a (‡) are two-handed weapons. They must be held with both hands. Two handed weapons give a character a −4 penalty to Thievery/Disguise checks to conceal them.

Weapon Properties

Arcing: On a critical success when using this weapon, the energy jumps in an arc to a another target. Choose a second target and roll another Attack Roll.
Incendiary: On a successful attack, this weapon lights its targets on fire. On a critical failure, the weapon explodes, dealing damage to its wielder. Roll a Grunt Save (DL 25) and take the result as damage.
Knockdown: Due to heavy stopping power, these weapons knock targets down. On a critical success when using this weapon, the target is knocked prone. Frequently seen on shotguns.
Reliable: This weapon never malfunctions as a result of rolling a critical failure. Revolver-style pistols are famous for their reliability.
Stun: Targets hit by the weapon will act last in Reaction order in the next round.

Melee

Older Stuff

In some areas of the world, technology is limited or dated and the weapons available are primitive. In others, the Old Ways are clung to in the hope that they will prove a salvation, and those who practice the Old Ways use some old weaponry. In still other places, antiquated weapons are a mark of status or valor and aren't used as much as they are just worn or displayed. Still, when the hurly-burly starts, any weapon is better than none. The weapons that follow aren't at the forefront of weapons technology, but at least they are widely available.

Name	AP	Parry	Hurt	Type	Cost
Fast blade (Ace) †	3	−2	2	P, S	25𝕤

Ace – An ace is another term for dagger. Daggers and knives are the most inexpensive and prevalent weapon among the common people: most people have them in their kitchens, if nowhere else. Ace can also refer to a bayonet (see below).
Strongblade – Swords are a bit antiquated, but there are still some cultures trained in the arts of using them. Strongblades run the gamut from longswords to rapiers, broadswords to battle-axes, katana to cutlasses.
Big Chopper – When it comes to bringing a knife to a gunfight, you had better make sure it's a really big knife. Big choppers require two hands to use and are often 6–7 feet in length.
Blackjack – A common term for any small, blunt object that is used to club an opponent. Blackjacks are cheap, easy to obtain, and easy to conceal. The weapon of choice for street muggers and kidnappers.
Queensrod – Anything from a baseball bat to a mace, a broom-handle to a hammer. Light enough to use with one hand, but with length and mass enough to knock someone's block off.
Gatecrasher – Gatecrashers are weighted bludgeons which are heavy enough to require two hands to swing around effectively, like sledgehammers, fenceposts, and stout chairs.
Pigsticker – A long, bladed polearm used to keep animals and people at a good distance.

Special Melee

For those who seek to tip the scales of war in their favor, or who just want a little flash and flair with their deadly weapons, the following weapons are the way to go, daddy-o.

Shiversword (large)	5		9	S, P	Jams on a crit fail, 2 handed, requires power cell	𝕤

Aether Torch – A short handle which is capable of producing a super-heated column of flame from one or both ends which is hot enough to melt through steel. The flame may be shortened or lengthened, but has a maximum length approaching six feet. Dangerous to use, even by proficient handlers, aether torches have been known to explode. Aether torches require cells of compressed Aether gas.
Arcblade – A sword or other bladed weapon which is imbued with electrical energy in the same way as an Arcglove. Requires arcgloves to handle safely. Powered by a mana cell.
Arcglove – A gauntlet which generates a flow of electricity along and around it, which can be discharged during hand-to-hand fighting, shocking the opponent. When not generating the normal field of electricity, arcgloves give off a "tingle" to those in contact with them. Powered by a mana cell.
Ki-blade – Weapons of legend, rumored to hold within them the soul of a dead kensai. When held by a Kensai, a ki-blade allows the wielder to charge it with "ki," or spirit energy, which greatly increases the weapon's deadliness. Ki-blades are also sought after as antiques/museus pieces, and so some of them are not in service, but still very functional.
Sawbracers – Leather bracers reinforced with metal which conceal several small, serrated blades which tear at an opponent in hand-to-hand combat.
Shiversword – A weapon consisting of a pair of thin blades which move back and forth at very high speeds, causing the weapon to "shiver." This movement of the blades means the cutting edge is extremely sharp. Friction or debris causes the weapon to seize up, or "jam," on a critical failure. Shiverswords come in all sizes and are commonly used in cooking or as work tools, in the form of small knives.
Springstaff – A springstaff resembles a short, thick metal rod in appearance, measuring 12" long at most. By pressing a button, the springs inside the handle eject lengths hidden one inside the other, turning the weapon into a full-length staff of up to seven feet. The new length of the weapon is fixed until the button is pressed again, which allows the shaft to collapse.

Special Melee Weapons and Critical Failures

Because of the advanced and imperfect technology used to create and operate advanced melee weapons, on critical failures, these weapons behave oddly. If the result is a 6-10, the attack misses, but no other malfunction is incurred. On a 1-5, the weapon malfunctions as described below, as per its individual qualities.

Blade Jam - Shiverswords which malfunction have their mechanisms or blades jam or fuse together. It takes 4AP to get the weapon working again, which usually involves just smacking the thing until it works.

Blowback - A Springstaff which malfunctions hits its wielder with a force pulse, knocking them prone.

Incendiary Explosion - A malfunction with an Aether Torch means that the dangerous aether and plasma gases which power the torch explode, destroying the weapon and injuring the wielder (Grunt Save DL 25).

Shorting - Arcblades and arcgloves will short-circuit on a malfunction. The electrical energy breaks the circuit and will not flow through the weapon. The device must be repaired with an on-the-spot Machinery check (5 AP, DL 15). Until they are repaired, arcblades function like swords of their respective size and arcgloves function as if the wearer was bare-fisted (a little warmer, though). If the Machinery check to repair a shorted weapon crit-fails, the wielder is struck by an arc of electrical energy (Grunt Save DL 20), regardless of any arc diffusers worn.

Modding Special Melee Weapons

Aether Wither – A small device which is synced with an Aether Torch to cause it to shut off the moment it leaves its wielder's hands, preventing any collateral damage it might incur such as lighting nearby objects or persons on fire.
Auto-Fuse – Prevents the first short of any combat with an arcing weapon.
Sickstick – A springstaff outfitted with sickstick technology will make a target nauseous and dizzy on a successful attack. Weapon becomes a stun weapon.
Soulstone – Adding additional soulstones to a ki-blade greatly enhance their destructive capabilities. Each additional soulstone doubles the effects of channeling ki into the weapon.
Tenebran Steel Blades – Any sword (including shiverswords and arcblades) made with Tenebran Steel adds +1 to the Hurt score of the weapon.
Tetron Coating – Tetron coating is applied to items which incorporate moving parts which may cause friction, heat, and heavy wear-and-tear. The Tetron prevents friction and assures less malfunctions and longer life for the item. Shiverswords coated with Tetron never jam.
Weapon Oil – Prevents the first blade jam of any combat with a shiversword.

Pistols - A pistol is a firearm which can be used in one hand.
Rifles - For our purposes, a rifle is any gun which normally requires two-hands to shoot. Most rifles are best fired from the shoulder and have a buttstock.

Modding Firearms

Firearms and their ammunition can be modified in a number of ways.

Barrel Upgrade - Can be taken up to three times. Increases the Hurt of the weapon by one.
Bayonet - A blade which is attached to rifles, turning them into formidable melee weapons.
Capacity Upgrade - Increases the magazine capacity by one. Can be taken to a maximum capacity of 10.
Cheap - Weapon is available at half-price. On a crit-fail, the weapon always explodes.
Collapsible - While every firearm can be dismantled for the purposes of maintenance and repair, a collapsible weapon is one which allows the main components to be easily taken apart for ease of concealment/smuggling, in order to be put together later. Available only on rifles.
Grenade Launcher - An under-mounted launcher available on rifles which has its own trigger system and must be reloaded after every shot (4 AP).
Laser-sight - Called shots can be made at no penalty.
Scope - Weapon may be fired at max range at no penalty.
Suppressor - Mutes the sound and dims the flash of gunfire. Perception checks to notice suppressed gunfire is DL 25 (non-suppressed is usually DL 10). Pistol suppressors limit effective range to 30 feet.
Tenebran Steel - Firearms made from this extremely resilient and expensive alloy are never destroyed as a result of a crit-fail. A firearm cannot be made of Tenebran Steel and also be Cheap.

Ammunition

Flashy Ammo - Blinds foes adjacent to wielder (Grunt Save DL 12).
Hydrostatic Ammo - Stuns target after a successful hit (Grunt Save DL 15).
Loud Ammo - Deafens foes adjacent to wielder (Grunt Save DL 12).
Non-lethal Ammo - Will not kill targets, but instead renders them unconscious.
Tainted Ammo - Deals Tainted Damage, which is harder to heal.

Available Models

Fast Pistols

Cobra MP-38 Machine Pistol

Common Pistols

Falke C-96 semi-auto - A semi-automatic pistol with a unique box-magazine in front of the trigger. Has a large capacity of 10 shots.

Special Firearms

These weapons rely on different methods than fired bullet-projectiles. Some require the use of a Manacell, an electro-chemical battery of sorts, or an Aethercell, a small can of highly condensed, pressurized gas.

Name	AP	Parry	Hurt	Capacity	Type	Notes	Cost
Arc-gun	4	−2	12	5	E	stun, requires Manacell	𝕤
Arc-lash	4	–2	6	N/A	S, E	stun, requires Manacell	𝕤
DR-153 Drachenrot Flamethrower	5	0	15	5	F		𝕤
Grappling Gun	4	−2	9	1	B	requires Aethercell	𝕤
Thumpgun	4	−2	8	10	B	knockdown, requires Manacell	𝕤

Arc-gun – A gun which shoots arcs of condensed electricity at short ranges. Powered by a mana cell.
Arc-lash – An arc-lash is a weapon reminiscent of a bullwhip: lightning fast and flexible. An arc-lash functions in most ways like a ranged weapon: it can't be parried by anything other than a shield, but an arc-lash's capacity is infinite. An arclash can also entangle an opponent (see the rules for Entanglement in the Combat chapter). A character attacking with an arc-lash may add their Muscle score to the Attack Roll.
Flamethrower – A large rifle which shoots flames via the muzzle. The flames are fueled by a cannister of highly-flammable, ultra-condensed Aether gas attached to the gun like a magazine.
Grappling Gun – A pistol which shoots small, barbed metal hooks, called "grapplers," attached to a length of cord. The hooks penetrate or grip stone, earth, steel and most other substances besides Tenebran Steel. The wielder can then use the attached cord to climb. The gun features a self-locking winch which aids in ascension, but the winch and grappler can only hold one non-Obese character without detaching.
Thumpgun – These guns, which can be handled with one hand or two, are larger than a pistol, but smaller than a rifle. When fired, Thumpguns produce a single sonic pulse which is barely audible to humanoid ears, but has concussive force enough to knock targets off their feet and hurt them. Thumpguns are commonly used by bounty hunters, and law enforcement, as well as those who wish to trade lethal effect for discretion or live quarry. Thumpguns also have large capacities, making reloading a minimal hassle.

Firearms and Critical Failures

Because of the complexity of a firearm's internal workings and the fact that most cartridges contain explosives, propellants, chemicals, or other volatile materials, malfunctioning firearms can be more disastrous than having a bad day with a sword. Whenever a player rolls a crit-fail for an Attack which uses a firearm, consult the table below.

(6-10) Miss - Automatic miss, loss of ammo.
(5) Oops - The character drops the firearm. Requires 2 AP to retrieve.
(4) Jam - The ammunition does not load properly into the chamber as the magazine or cell is clogged with dirt. Requires a reload.
(3) Dud - The ammunition loads into the chamber, but does not fire. The cartridge must be carefully removed with a Machinery check (5 AP, DL 15).
(2) Hangfire - There is a short lag between pulling the trigger and ejection of the projectile. The weapon targets the closest ally as the firearm fires at an inopportune time.
(1) Explosion - A squib, a cartridge which is improperly prepared, or a gun with a faulty barrel will cause the gun to be blown apart, destroying the gun and injuring the wielder (Grunt Save DL 20).

Other Ranged Weapons

These ranged weapons don't fall under the category of firearms.

Name	AP	Parry	Hurt	Capacity	Type	Notes	Cost
Crossbow	5	−1	16	1	P	hard conceal	600𝕤
Hunting Bow	5	−1	14	N/A	P	hard conceal, reliable	650𝕤
Shuriken	3	−2	2	N/A	S, P	easy conceal, thrown	10𝕤

Crossbow – Or pistol-crossbow, is a more modern version of the crossbow of antiquity. Crossbows are weapons used most often in specialized instances and have the advantage of being usable underwater, and of firing grappling hooks.
Hunting Bow – A traditional bow suitable for game-hunting or combat. Arrows shot by bows can be tipped with different materials, allowing for a wider range of functions than a pistol or rifle.
Shuriken – A generalized term for any small, sharp item which can be thrown at a target. Shuriken include throwing knives, ninja stars, darts, rocks, etc. Since Shuriken are thrown, the character's Muscle is added to the Attack Roll.

Modding Other Ranged Weapons

Bloodwood and Horn - Hunting bows reinforced with Bloodwood and Negoromi Horn are extremely flexible, enabling greater resilience without reducing the draw of the bowstring (becomes AP 4 weapon).
Spidercord - Bows and crossbows modified with Spidercord will never have a bowstring snap, and so crit-fails with Spidercord bows simply miss. Spidercord used in climbing can support the weight of as many people as needed and is nearly impossible to cut through.
Tombwood and Horn - Hunting bows reinforced with this hard, sturdy wood and the horn of Ushi-oni stand up well to strong draws (+1 Hurt).

Other Ammunition

Incendiary Arrows - Light a target on fire on a hit.
Explosive Arrows - These arrows explode on impact, dealing damage to nearby targets.
Poisons - These projectiles have been dipped in poison of some sort (see the entries on Poisons for more details). Because of the complexity of firearms and the fact that bullets are encased in a cartridge, firearm ammunition cannot be poisoned. Neither can weapons which rely on a Manacell or Aethercell. However, arrows, bolts, and shuriken can.
Netcaster - On a successful hit, the target is ensnared in a net. Usable with crossbows only.
Bolacaster - A pair of small metal orbs connected with a wire, which is fired at the legs of a target. On a successful hit, the target is knocked prone and is considered entangled. Usable with crossbows only.

Fragmentation Grenades –
Incendiary Grenades –

Shields

Characters who use shields don't actually receive any sort of armor bonus from using one. Instead, they use the shield for parrying during their Defense Roll. Shields are usually the only weapons which can be used be parry ranged projectiles like bullets, arrows, grenades, etc.

Name	AP	Parry	Hurt	Type	Notes	Cost
Light infantry shield	4	+2	3	B		200𝕤
Heavy infantry shield	5	+4	5	B	+1 to Trip	450𝕤
Arc shield	2	+2	4	B, E	stun	1000𝕤

Light infantry shield – A simple shield with metal rivets and reinforcements, commonly strapped to the arm. Useful in melee combat as a bludgeoning weapon.
Heavy infantry shield – A large shield — large enough to cover nearly from the shoulders to the knees. Often rectangular, made of metal, polycarbonate, or other resistant material. Its weight makes it particularly effective as a bludgeoning weapon, and shields can be used to knock an opponent backwards or prone.
Arc Shield – An arc shield is a light shield that has been modified to carry an electrical current across the face of it. When attacking with an arc shield, the field can be discharged into an opponent, shocking them. When defending, the shield's energy will arc at the attacker on a critically-successful parry roll, where the attacker takes the damage, not the defender. Arcshields require arcgloves to use without self-harm.

Armor

Good armor is hard to come by and many don't bother with it unless they know they are headed for trouble. Armor is most commonly seen in the hands of soldiers, law enforcement, and persons of political import. However, as it often means the difference between life and death, all of those who do wear it are eventually thankful for having it.

Bonus: This is the number you add to Defense Rolls and record in the "Armor" box on the character sheet
Hindrance: The penalty imposed to certain rolls
Don AP: The amount of time in AP that it takes to put on this armor with assistance. Without assistance, it's double this number.
Remove AP: The amount of time in AP that it takes to remove this armor with assistance. Without assistance, it's double this number.
Cost: The cost in crowns/sovereigns(𝕤) to buy the weapon in new condition crowns/sovereigns(𝕤). When selling a used weapon, a character can expect to get half this value in return.

Food/Drink

Amrita - A liquor made from honey, rare spices and herbs, and Mana. The true recipe is ancient, dating back thousands of years, and some cultures propose their recipe has not changed in all that time. (+4 MP)
Ambrosia - Because of its status as an anti-toxin, it is the preferred drink to consume among dangerous or mixed company or in strange countries. (+2 Saves vs. Poison)
Edge - Most people prefer to smoke their Edge, as the commonly held assumption is that the alcohol interferes with the heightened senses Edge provides, but some have been known to drink it. In this form Edge tastes of bitter almonds, and is slightly less potent than its other forms. (+1 Perception, +1 Focus)
Harma - (+2 SP)
Ichor - A thick, dark liquor which has a taste reminiscent of licorice or molasses. Ichor is made with small amounts of Ushioni blood, which lead some to abstain from consuming it on moral grounds. Ichor is proven to be a great preventative to many diseases. (+4 to resisting disease)
Lucy - With a strong taste which is almost sour, Lucy is notorious for making drinkers loud and hostile, and contributing to many hangovers and next-day apologies. Lucy contains several analgesics, which relieve pain. (+2 Endurance)
Poitine - (+
Soma - Rumored to be made from concentrated prayer and worship of the old gods, this liquor is combined with the milk of Kirin and rosewater, making it sweet, thick, and smooth. (Doubles overnight healing, but induces deep sleep and vivid dreams)
Teikal - A robust, smoky-tasting liquor, pale yellow to amber in color. Teikal affects the parts of the brain which control basic fight-or-flight responses and fear, numbing these urges and as a result, is greatly preferred by soldiers. (+2 Courage)

Mechanical Augmentation

Tin Limbs and Clockwork Organs

Tin Limb - A mechanical arm or leg used as a highly-effective prosthesis. Some tin limbs are crude in nature, with gears exposed, others are more refined, housed in a resistant casing, and still others employ synthetic flesh and musculature to imitate a real limb. A tin limb isn't actually made of tin; that's just the name. A single tin limb adds +1 to the character's natural armor score and enables the use of a missing limb. Some people opt to have healthy, working limbs amputated and replaced by tin limbs in order to benefit from the limb's increased durability.
Tin Plates -
Tin Lungs - Allows the character to breathe normally underwater or in environments with noxious gases/fumes.
Tin Liver - Makes the character immune to poison.
Tin Heart - Allows a character killed during combat to continue acting as normal until the end of combat.
Tin Stomach - Doubles the effectiveness of augmentative food and drink.
Tin Hands - Gives a character +1 H2H Hurt
Tin Legs - Gives a character +2 to skill checks which involve running or jumping.

Eyeshine - Many animals have a layer of tissue in their eyes called Tapetum Lucidum, which reflects visible light and greatly increases the quality of low-light and night-vision of these animals. Called "eyeshine" because of the eerie, greenish reflections the eyes give off (most noticeably at night), a tapetum lucidum can be applied to humanoid eyes by a trained ocular surgeon. Eyeshine negates the penalties to Perception and other sight-based checks at night and in areas of low-light and enables the character to see in what others would describe as "complete darkness."
Handcannon - A handcannon is a large firearm which is constructed to fit inside of a tin arm. The barrel of the gun exits in the palm. The handcannon is linked to the muscle and complex internal mechanisms of the tin arm and requires training in order to operate safely and effectively. When the fingers of the hand are curled into a fist, the gun is considered to be on "safety" and will not fire.

Aether Cell – A power source for devices, but second to Mana cells in terms of efficiency and potency.
Arc Collar – Packmasters attach these collars to the necks, or rarely wrists/ankles, of prisoners, laborers, slaves, or enemies. The packmaster can remotely activate the collar, which sends a shock into the body of the host. Arc collars are often used to "train" captives and are sometimes used in conjunction with Mana Inhibitor Collars (M.I.C.).
Bloodbook – Relics of the Old Ways, a set of bloodbooks were a way of communicating over long distances. What was written in blood in one book could be read in either all the books or in a single master tome, depending on how the books were enchanted. Since the advent of radio communications, bloodbooks have slightly decreased in value, but due to their easily-disguised nature, they are still utilized.
Cloudstuff
Combustion Collar – Barbaric devises still in use by ruthless cultures and slavers, these collars attach to their hosts and remain there until removed by a trained packmaster. The packmaster may activate the collar, at which time it explodes, obviously killing the host and killing or wounding anyone nearby. Any attempt to remove the collar through force results in immediate activation.
Focus Magnet – A Focus Magnet is a pucklike stone which can be used to push (diamagnetism) or pull (paramagnetism) metal objects through the expenditure of MP.
Gun Oil – A character can trade one use of gun oil to assure a "Miss" (6-10) outcome on the firearm crit-fail chart.
Dreamstones
Krakentooth Ink
Mana Inhibitor Collar – Less gruesome than the combustion collar, the M.I.C. continually drains the Mana energy inherent to the host, stopping it from activating any powers, preventing it from casting spells, and keeping it in a state of mild exhaustion. These collars keep a host at a constant state of 0 MP and Stage One on the Knockout Track.
Mana Cell – a highly efficient, productive energy source for devices and vehicles.
Memory Stones – Small precious gems which contain memories. The gems are worth a good deal of money on the black market, depending on the memory.

Riding Horse – Horses serve as excellent transportation and beasts of burden. However, most horses do not fare well in the chaos of combat. Riding horses require their riders to make Personality + Animal Control or Agility + Ride checks (2 AP) against a DL of 12 for each round of combat to keep the horse from throwing its rider and running away. If the check is failed, the rider takes the difference as damage.
Warhorse – Warhorses are trained in the arts of warfare and do not require their riders to make checks to avoid being throw simply because they are in combat.
Donkey – Donkeys and mules are perfect beasts for hauling heavy gear or awkward tools, or for pulling heavy objects in a harness. Donkeys make poor mounts for combat purposes and will always throw their rider and run away if confronted with hostile forces.
Blackbeak – Blackbeaks are stout, bipedal mounts with short vestigial wings and powerful legs, which they use to jump large distances and propel themselves furiously over land. They derive their name from their sharp beaks which are capable of easily rending flesh. Blackbeaks make poor beasts of burden, since their frame is not suited for much cargo, but make great mounts in combat thanks to their aggressive natures and the ease with which they are domesticated. For more information on these creatures, see the Blackbeak entry.
Bullhound – Bullhounds are the preferred mounts of Goblyn warriors. Bullhounds also make great guard dogs.

+* Aether Cell – A power source for devices, but second to Mana cells in terms of efficiency and potency.
+* Arc Collar – Packmasters attach these collars to the necks, or rarely wrists/ankles, of prisoners, laborers, slaves, or enemies.  The packmaster can remotely activate the collar, which sends a shock into the body of the host.  Arc collars are often used to "train" captives and are sometimes used in conjunction with Mana Inhibitor Collars (M.I.C.).
+* Bloodbook – Relics of the Old Ways, a set of bloodbooks were a way of communicating over long distances.  What was written in blood in one book could be read in either all the books or in a single master tome, depending on how the books were enchanted.  Since the advent of radio communications, bloodbooks have slightly decreased in value, but due to their easily-disguised nature, they are still utilized.
+* Cloudstuff
+* Combustion Collar – Barbaric devises still in use by ruthless cultures and slavers, these collars attach to their hosts and remain there until removed by a trained packmaster.  The packmaster may activate the collar, at which time it explodes, obviously killing the host and killing or wounding anyone nearby.  Any attempt to remove the collar through force results in immediate activation.
+* Focus Magnet – A Focus Magnet is a pucklike stone which can be used to push (diamagnetism) or pull (paramagnetism) metal objects through the expenditure of MP.
