This short polearm features twin blades that cut like a geatsword but swung like a greataxe or can be set to receive a charge like a spear. It can also stab like a spear. Ursyn and Kaenyd rangers, especially those who use the Zweihander combat style, swear by the weapon.

Boarding Axe

Mar 1 2010|14:30

(2 votes, average 4.50 out of 5)

by Alex Harman

A boarding axe resembles a miniature halberd: an axe blade backed by a spike that hooks slightly downward when the weapon is held upright. The haft falls between that of a handaxe and a battleaxe in length, but the blade is closer in size and weight to that of a handaxe; however, with the spike and the extra length it qualifies as a one-handed rather than a light weapon. The spike can be used for piercing attacks or to aid in climbing.

Cutlass

Mar 1 2010|14:25

(3 votes, average 4.33 out of 5)

by Alex Harman

The cutlass is a variety of short sword favored by sailors, and sometimes used by duelists as an off-hand weapon. It has a heavy, slightly curved, single-edged blade suitable for slashing or piercing, and a basket guard around the hilt.

Hedge Knight

by Alex Harman

I'm laying the groundwork for adapting the Sovereign Press' 3.5 version of the original Dragonlance adventure path to run it under Pathfinder rules. Three of the core classes in the Tome of Magic struck me as particularly appropriate to the setting: the Swashbuckler, which, with some minor tweaking, can replace the Mariner core class from the Sovereign Press books; the Warlord, which can replace the rather useless Noble core class with no tweaking at all; and the Knight, which fits well with the key concepts behind the Knights of Solamnia.

However, some of the Knight's class features are implausible for the original Solamnic Knight PC, Sturm Brightblade, due to his background. I created this class to represent would-be Knights like Sturm, who try to live according the Knighthood's precepts despite their separation from the Orders of the Crown, Sword and Rose -- or, for that matter, the Legion of Steel, Knights of Takhisis, or any other knightly order that exists or has existed in Ansalon at some point in its history.
