Segmented Blade

A sword with a blade made of segments. It can seamlessly assume 2 different weapon profiles, one slightly longer than the other.


A character wielding this sword can, once per turn, as an incidental, switch to the alternate profile.

Skill : Melee - Light
Dam : +2

Range : Engaged
Encum : 1 
Price : 3700

When closed, the weapon has a smooth and sharp edge with the following profile:


When extended, the weapon has a serrated edge with the following profile:


Name : Segmented Blade
Skill : Melee - Light
Dam : +4
Crit : 3
Range : Engaged
Encum : X

The first time the profiles are switched right before an attack is made catches an opponent off-guard, removing all SETBACK added to the pool due to the target’s defense. This effect only works once per target.
