Off Hand Weapon Use

All characters are presumed to be better with one hand than the other - in real life, most people are rlght-handed, quite a few are left-handed, and only a very few are truly ambidextrous.

When a character is first created, the player should specify his handedness (right or left). If he does not specify one, the DM should assume the character Is rlght-handed.

If a character, for whatever reason, fights with his off-hand instead of his good hand, he suffers a -2 penalty to hit with all attacks. For example, should a character find himself with his right hand chained to a wall, and yet he needs to draw and throw a dagger and must use his off-hand, he'll then suffer the -2 penalty to hit.

If you wish a character to be ambidextrous, consult "Ambidexterity" under "Weapon ProficIency Slots."
