Weapons
Weapons are item wielded by a character and used by many actions with the intent to cause harm.
To use a weapon, a character must wield it. Each weapon requires one or both hands to wield; to wield a weapon, a character must spend their fast action on their turn (doing so allows them to stash any other weapons they are wielding, and wield as many weapons as they can). Unless the narrator says otherwise, at the start of any danger, all characters may wield any weapons of their choice as a free action.
Weapons are used by the Attack (Weapon) action, and similar actions. Each weapon below has a profile describing how many hands are needed to wield it, how far a valid target can be from the character using the weapon, what check to make to determine if the weapon strike is successful, how much damage the weapon deals, and any additional effects or rules associated with that weapon.
