Concealing Unarmed 'Weapons'


Rules Questions


So, how would one mechancically conceal an unarmed weapon? Since slieght of hand hides light weapons, and I could see someone hiding a clenched fist behind they're back, I'd say it works... but then it also says you hide such a weapon on your body, so I'm inclined to say it doesn't. Or would you say since the body is the item needing concealing, that I would have to have concealment on the character through invisibility/darkness?

The reason I ask, is that after deciding on a Ninja Cat Burgler in an advice thread, I also decided to take the Underhanded talent, but to my dismay it requires an attack with a concealed weapon for it work when I also decided that an unarmed attack would best fit my flavor.

So can you conceal unarmed attacks?

Edited for Clarity: Been up too long...


Thats the beauty of unarmed strike. do some orc you are just a guy in a bathrobe not a killing machine that can flip out at any moment.

Which is why I just decided to stuff a dagger in a spring-loaded wrist sheath to use with this feat.

So they're always "concealed" weapons until seen being used? If so I can live with it, just seems a like a pretty powerful boon to unarmed striking ninja, given all the rougue talents involving concealed weapons then.
