Weapons

Weapons
These are the six broad categories of weapons used by heros to vanquish their foes.

Slashing
Slashing weapons are weapons like swords, that deal damage in a slash. They are moderate at everything, and an adventurer's favorite choice.

Smashing
Smashing weapons do incredible damage, usually at the expense of other penalties, like decreased speed or accuracy. They are remarkably easy to use.

Poking
Poking weapons have more range than any of the other melee types, and do decent damage as well, but they take a large amount of skill to manuever properly, and function horribly at a very close range

Shooting
Ranged weapons are a broad category encompassing any type of weapon that travels further than the reach of a spear. Ranged weapons are thrown or shot, and typically have ammunition.

Operating
Hiding weapons are typically concealed on your body in some way. They are small and discreet.

Casting
Blasting involves using your body as a conduit to the Aether, and drawing magic from that plane to attack your enemies. It can be physically, spiritually, and mentally draining, but it can reap great rewards.
