Need a bit of help here with a character


Advice


I have a character who wields a scythe, hes got Marshal Dedication for Topple Foe. Im wondering if there is any way I can also somehow be able to Grapple. I dont think their are any weapons that have both the Trip trait and Grappe trait, so is their any way to be able to grapple while wielding a two handed scythe? A talisman, or a long term duration spell that could allow it or anything else?

If you're high enough level (7), the Constricting Whip Tail graft allows characters of any ancestry to do a hands-free Grapple. Alternatively, if you can get access to region-locked Uncommon equipment, the Zhuazhi Bang from the Tian Xia book has both grapple and trip.


I just realized I am a Lizardfolk, would I be able to take the ancestry feat Tail Whip to be able to grapple with my tail?

I don't see that feat. Iruxi Armaments doesn't give the tail the grapple trait, which is what it would need to do.

Kholo get a bite with grapple with the Crunch feat, if that's not too much of a change.

Inventor Dedication for Basic Modification to get Entangling Form would do it since that adds Grapple/Trip/Disarm traits to the weapon. That's obviously expensive in terms of feats (and needing the INT to get into it), but it works.

Inventor archetype was my first thought too.

I think there are a couple of archetypes with feats for allowing Trip while your hands are full with a 2-hand weapon. I'm not aware of any for Grapple though.

So you need to get Grapple trait onto the weapon itself.

For Talismans, there is the Binding Coil.
