Change wording for multi-armed characters?


Round 1: Magus

Sovereign Court

I am about to make

Spoiler:
the four-armed goblin, Koruvus, from Burnt Offerings
into a magus.

To use this ability, the magus must have one hand free, while wielding a light or one-handed melee weapon in the other hand.

Could we add a clause or one more sentence just to say: "Magus' with more than two arms must wield at least one melee weapon in their other hands, this can be any type of melee weapon."

It just seems to make sense that a Witchwyrd or Marilith could use two-handed swords and/or shields in some of their hands.


To be fair, the character in question (from the Rise of the Runelords path - added so people know what it being spoiled) doesn't have the Intelligence to be a Magus.

But I agree. Perhaps it should simply say you need to be wielding a weapon, and have a hand free.
