 Weapons are separated into several categories, which dictate how they're typically used as well as what kind of training a character may need to use the weapon in question. In addition to these categories, all weapons possess **[[equipment:weapons:weapontraits|Weapon Traits]]**, which determine aspects that make a given weapon unique. See the Weapon Traits page for a breakdown of these abilities in greater detail. Weapons are separated into several categories, which dictate how they're typically used as well as what kind of training a character may need to use the weapon in question.

 +  * **Light Weapons** add half of your Strength modifier to your weapon damage rolls
 +  * **One-Handed Weapons** add your full Strength modifier to weapon damage rolls
 +  * **Two-Handed Weapons** add your Strength modifier x1.5 to weapon damage rolls
 +
 +With the above example, a character with 20 Strength (and thus a modifier of +5) would inflict +2 damage with a Light weapon, +5 damage with a One-Handed weapon, and +7 damage with a Two-Handed Weapon, as this modifier rounds down.
 +
 +<WRAP round info 60%>
 +By default, a melee weapon uses your Strength modifier for the attack **and** damage rolls. Optionally, Light weapons may use Dexterity for the attack rolls instead. In order to use Dexterity for damage as well, the weapon must have the Agile trait. See the [[equipment:weapons:weapontraits|Weapon Traits]] page for more information.

 +===== Improvised Weapons ===== 
 + 
 +If you attack with something that wasn’t built to be a weapon, such as a chair or a vase, you’re making an attack with an improvised weapon. Improvised weapons are Simple Weapons. You take a –2 penalty to attack rolls with an improvised weapon. The GM determines the amount and type of damage the attack deals, if any, as well as any weapon traits that the improvised weapon should have, due to their widely varied nature. Due to this, Improvised Weapons may be light, one-handed, or two-handed, depending upon what the item is.
