An ancient weapon design featuring a narrow, sharp edged head perpendicular to a handle
capable of delivering deep, devastating wounds. Plus a power field.
Melee: Attacks with this trait can be used during close combat without penalty.
Power: The weapon is surrounded by a crackling power field. Attacks made by Power weapons cannot be parried except by weapons that have both the Power and Parry traits, energy based shields, or via the Parry Master skill. In addition, if the hit roll for a Power weapon is a 6, that hit automatically wounds.
Rending: If the roll to wound with a Rending weapon is a natural 6, the attack's Damage is increased by 1 and its Armor Penetration is increased by 1.
