Magic weapon property to make a weapon count as a one handed or light weapon


Advice


Is there a property that can make a two handed weapon count as one handed and a one handed weapon as a light weapon? Or maybe a special weapon material like mithrial does to armor?

Your looking for something alone the lines of the Sunblades? The Sunbalde is a bastard sword that csan be wielded like a short sword.

Not sure if there is anything other then the Sunblade along the lines you want.

No.Not exactly.

What are you trying to do?


One of my players is a two weapon fighter who uses two identical katanas. I would like to reward him if the group completes an adventure with two katanas that can be used with weapon finesse and with only a -2 in each hand. Can I will just use sun blades, but make them katanas.

Why not just give him two Sawtooth Sabres, that count as Katanas for the purposes of feats and abilities?


Conversely, you could give him wakizashi's that count as short swords for weapon finesse, but put Impact on them so they deal damage like kitanas.

As the GM you can make any special items you want.


Katanas, in 3.5, were Bastard swords so using Sunblade and styling as a katana is definately fair and shouldn't hit any balance snags


Reskinning a sunblade is pretty effortless actually.


My player's concept utilizes the high critical threat range. Yes a gm I can create whatever I like, but like to know if something already exists for it.

I like the sawtooth sabre except it doesnt have 18-20. He actually likes the look of the sabre because of its jagged look in the core rulebook of the female two weapon fighter red mantis and her two sawtooth sabres.


Was even conidering giving him two sawtooth katanas

No there isn't anything official. Choose your flavor of homebrew.
