What is the penalty for wielding a two handed weapon in one hand? The best I can figure is -2 since a Two Handed Weapon is one size category larger then a typical one handed weapon.

"At 2nd level, a titan mauler may choose to wield a two-handed melee weapon in one hand with a –2 penalty on attack rolls while doing so. The weapon must be appropriately sized for her, and it is treated as one-handed when determining the effect of Power Attack, Strength bonus to damage, and the like. This ability replaces uncanny dodge" Titan Mauler is a Fighter/Barbarian archetype that allows the PC to wield two-handed weapons with one hand at 2nd level with the class feature "Jotun Grip"


I am GM for a Jade Regent campaign. We are in book 2, "Night Of Frozen Shadows", and are currently investigating a lead on the sword Suishen. One of my party is riding a horse that has taken significant damage, effectively reducing it's current HP from 19 to 1, and casts a spell called Scarify to convert the lethal damage the horse has taken into non lethat damage. The spell stated that it only works as a "healing" spell in the sense that it stops bleeding. My question is, would this knock the horse unconscious? The MAX HP of the horse is 19. The lethat damage taken is 18, leaving it with a current HP of 1. If the spell converts 14 points of lethal damage into non lethat damage it would have 1 current HP, 14 non lethat dmg, and 4 lethal dmg. Am I correct in stating that the horse would fall unconscious? The spell doesn't restore health, it only converts it, which logically means that the horse doesn't get 14 points of health back because that damage is already dealt but is being converted into non lethal damage (still damage by technicality because it can knock a character out if it exceeds it's current HP) which means that the horse's non lethal damage total is greater than it's current HP (14>1) please help me affirm my decision or point out very clearly why I am incorrect, thanks!
