I have started off with my grandfathered Aasimar Swashbuckler (with slashing grace on katana) and am womdering this: does cosmetic fluff, like short colored ribbons/tassels on the pommel, tinted blades, and eventually effects when the weapons are enchanted (subtle motion blur, Tesla coil like glowing traveling up and down the blade, etc) count as illegal under reskinning rules?

I stepped into this thread hoping to see some hints on using make-up as weapons, or in combat situations... you know, things like;
- throwing flasks of Tinted Moisturizers as splash weapons,
- face powder for locating invisible creatures,
- Mascara & Eyeshadow for a bonus to Perception,
- Eyeliners & Brow Pencils as improvised weapons (perhaps used with the trait "Rough and Ready")
- makeup brushes used as the weapon Iron Brush
- Lipstick & Lip Gloss as a Masterwork Tool for Diplomacy
- Nail Polish Blanches to get through DR when using claw attacks
you know, "Cosmetic Weapons" - that sort of thing.
sigh... life is just full of disappointments I guess.

No worries, so long as you're not trying to change anything mechanically or disguise it somehow. "But it has ribbons and tassles on the end, now I can use it as a thrown weapon without penalty because they stabilize it!"
How do you get the invisible ninja to hold still long enough to powder his face?Katisha |

That's a relief, now I can color code my weapons for party convenience and aesthetic perfection! ( "The red katana matches my formal attire for the Chelish banquet, but the blue one goes really well with my armor when it all hits the fan.") Swashbucklers need to care about their stylishness in all things, especially since the red ones (may or may not) go faster (needs more Waaagh)

Well, you'll find many references on these boards, to the 'sneak attacking rouge'.

Not for an Aasimar - you'd need to be half-orc. After all, the only reason the red ones go faster is because the orks believe that red ones go faster.
