  Weapon Crafting Weapon crafting works in the same general manner as armor. For determining statistics, design the weapon as if it were to be used by a medium-sized character.

  Decide what the base damage is going to be. Once you have determined the ideal Damage Value (DV), the character must purchase the raw materials for the weapon. The character must purchase one pound of each material needed to make the weapon per DV. Example: A knife has a DV of 1 and requires steel and leather. The character must purchase one pound of steel and one pound of leather to make the knife.

  Next, the item’s weight is the DV multiplied by .8.

  Raw material costs for sizes other than medium are obtained using the following information: Weapons for tiny characters are the medium-sized cost divided by 4; weapons for small characters are the medium sized cost divided by 2; weapons for large characters are the medium sized cost times 2; and weapons for a huge characters are the medium sized cost times 4. As always, the extra raw materials not used is considered scrap in the crafting process.

  Damage for weapons other than medium size: The adjusted damage is determined using the following information: Weapons for tiny characters are the DV minus 10; weapons for small characters are the DV minus 5; weapons for a large characters are DV plus 5; and weapons for huge characters are the DV plus 10

  The Blunt Factor: Damage is reduced on blunt weapons to represent the dispersion of energy (damage). Huge blunt weapons are reduced by 15 points, large blunt weapons by 7 points, medium blunt weapons by 4 points, and small blunt weapons by 3 points. All damage is reduced to a minimum of 1, and is recorded on the damage value of the weapon. Materials required for crafting weapons.

  Fundamentally, all blades or other metal weapons are made out of steel and tanned leather (for the grip). Weapons where wood is used for a handle, such as axes, require hardwood and steel (for the weapon head). Weapons that use only wood, such as the staff and maul, use hardwood only. Below is a list of weapons and their components.

  Weapon: Material Needed

  Knife: Steel, tanned leather

  Hatchet: Hardwood, steel

  Hammer, Common: Hardwood, steel Short Sword: Steel, tanned leather Staff: Hardwood

  Light Flail: Steel, Tanned Leather Heavy Mace: Steel, Tanned Leather Broad Sword: Steel, Tanned Leather Battle Axe: Hardwood, Steel

  Scythe: Hardwood, Steel

  Heavy Flail: Steel, Tanned Leather Large Mace: Steel, tanned leather Great Scimitar: Steel, tanned leather Leather.

  Dagger: Steel, tanned leather

  Sickle: Steel, tanned leather

  Axe, throwing/hand: Hardwood, steel Spear: Hardwood, steel

  Scimitar (sword): Steel, tanned leather War Hammer: Hardwood, steel Morning star: Steel, Tanned Leather Long Sword: Steel, Tanned Leather Two Handed Axe: Hardwood, Steel Long Spear: Hardwood, Steel

  Halberd: hardwood, Steel

  Maul: hardwood

  Two-handed Sword: Steel, Tanned Bows and Crossbows: The cost of the bow is determined by the desired range of the bow. The amount of material needed is multiplied by one for every ten feet of desired distance. Bow damage is determined by the type of arrow and the type of bow string. Weight of the bow is determined by multiplying the desired range by .5. Bow and Crossbow range is determined by dividing the weapon’s maximum range by four. The first quarter is the weapon’s point-blank range, the second quarter is the weapons short range, the third quarter is the weapon’s medium range, and the last quarter is the weapon’s long range.

  Short Bow- Hardwood Long Bow – Hardwood Compound Bow – hardwood + 1 lbs of steel Hand Crossbow – Hardwood + 1 lbs of steel

  Crossbow – Hardwood + 1 lbs of steel

  Heavy Crossbow – Hardwood + 1 lbs of steel.

  Bow String: Unlike other weapons and material, the listed components represent the total needs to make the string. (necessary since bow string does not have an applicable weight) Bow Strings:

  Bow String, no bonuses- 1 lbs of wool

  Bow String, +1 to damage, 1 lbs of wool + 1 lbs of steel Bow String, +2 to damage, 2 lbs of wool and 1 lbs of steel Bow String, +3 to damage, 3 lbs wool and 1 lbs of steel Crossbow String, +3 to damage, 3 lbs wool + 2 lbs steel Crossbow String, +4 to damage, 3 lbs wool + 3 lbs steel Crossbow String, +5 to damage, 4 lbs wool + 3 lbs steel

  Arrows: 1 lbs of soft wood and ½ lbs of steel create 1 arrow. Base weight is .02 lbs Crossbow Bolt: 1 lbs of steel create 1 crossbow bolt. Base weight for a bolt is .02 lbs Crafting Materials:

  allows the character to perform the skill. The differences in kits range from quality of tools and equipment to the amount of material and supply. All kits are relational to the purpose. An appraisal kit is a small bag containing optical and equipment for the appraiser to value a gem. On the other hand, an armorer’s kit is an extensive work location with all the tools needed: a high quality forge, a high quality furnace, and other heavy equipment to do the job. For the purposes below, t
he kits will indicate if they are generally not portable (i.e. usually a shop or office). Kits that are not portable must be stored somewhere (at a rental price) for the character.
