Fan-Created Weapons
Weapons in this section go in alphabetical order by weapon.
Bola</b>
Accuracy -1 Damage +1B Defense Rate 2 Range 40
Resources <b>••</b>
This weapon is a simple number of weights bound together. If the user makes an attack with a plus 2 difficulty, they entangle the target's arms or legs (within reason). This is effectively a non-damaging clinch attack with a pool of successes (equal to the extra successes of the attack roll) that the target drains away till there are none, meaning they are free. Depending on the construction of the bola, it can also be broken with an appropriate feat of strength. -- haren
