Can I wield a weapon with a Prosthetic Arm for the purposes of a Feint in combat?
Specfically, I'm wondering if I can wield a Fighting Fan (a weightless weapon) for the purposes of it's "Distracting" weapon property (+2 bluff for feinting). Description at least implies that I can equip a shield with a prothetic arm, so I'm thinking I could at least be distracting with a Fighting Fan.
This would be for PFS, which as far as I can tell, still lists Posthetic limbs as legal options (rules are found in UE, adventurers armory, and in Pirates of the Inner Sea).
If wondering, planned character would also have a peg leg and worship Besmara.
For PFS purposes, you can't. The prosthetic hand entry does say that the hand can "hold" an item of negligible weight, but not much else. "Holding" is not the same as "wielding" a weapon, which is what is required to use a weapon's properties.
Also, for clarification, prosthetic arm and prosthetic hand are two different items.
For non PFS play, you might check out the 'Arm of Nyr'. A magical arm that replaces a lost one.
