School: illusion (glamer)

Level: Bard: 1; Skald: 1; Magus: 1; Sorcerer: 1; Wizard: 1; Arcanist: 1; Witch: 1
Casting Time: 1 round
Components: V, S
Range: touch
Target: manufactured weapon touched
Duration: 1 hour/level (D)
Source: Advanced Class Guide
Summary: Changes one weapon's appearance.
You make one manufactured weapon look like a different manufactured weapon of the same size and relative encumbrance (light, one-handed, or two-handed). For example, you could make a Small greatsword look like a Small quarterstaff, a Medium club, or a Large dagger. Even the appearance of an improvised weapon is possible. The extent of the apparent change is up to you. You could add or obscure a minor feature or make the item look like it is composed of different materials (stone, wood, adamantine, and so on). The spell does not provide any of the abilities of the chosen form, nor does it alter the perceived tactile or audible properties of the item or how it is wielded. A creature that interacts with the glamer may attempt a Will save to recognize it as an illusion.

My question here is pure fluff, not really anything to make things stronger but could I theoretically make a Medium Monk with Small Katana fists since his UAS is considered a manufactured weapon?

Hell yes. That is a really awesome use of that spell. :)


Woohoo! With this and the boar style line I can stylistically make a character I've been meaning to make.


No, it's really a spoiler (as in it will spoil your fun) - don't read this and don't show it to your GM if you like this idea:
I am so sorry, but I really, really dislike this concept on a personal level - for some reason I can't pin down it offends me, so I'm gonna go all rules lawyer-y

A monk's unarmed strike is treated as both a manufactured weapon and a natural weapon for the purpose of spells and effects that enhance or improve either manufactured weapons or natural weapons.

I really don't think that disguise weapon can truly be said to enhance or improve a manufactured weapon

sorry!


I dunno, I'd count my fists looking like swords an improvement.


Unarmed strike is not considered a manufactured weapon for the purposes of this spell.

Although it would look very amusing to have somebody's arms literally be greatswords.

you guys are just wrong on so many levels...

It's a visual improvement

Edit: I'm not playing PFS so I could probably make some sort of plea to my GM to allow this because they won't let me use Katana to flurry but as long as I can say "I use my katana fist to flurry" I'll be happy with the character.


Not by any definition of 'improvement' I'm familiar with...

:P

It's more aesthetically pleasing than a fist

Care to elaborate?

Levels 2, 4, and 5.

(And I'd let you do it. Except I prefer warhammerfists.)

I'm going for like a T-1000 Terminator feel. The liquid metal one.

6, 9 and 13 aren't pretty either... :)

And No! hammerfists are just as ugly.
