Witchblade

Broggna stared at the goblin, squinting her left eye fiercely. The goblin laughed, holding up his crossed fingers in warding, “Your evil eye does no harm to me, witch!”

But he swallowed hard when he saw the old woman casually pull a witchblade from her sleeve and gingerly test the sharp edge against her bony thumb. He decided to reconsider breaking his deal with Broggna the Witch.

Notes on Witchblades

Some blades take on aspects of their users. The witchblade is one.

Witchblades are spiteful weapons for spiteful people. They are small but wickedly sharp and carry a hex forged into the very metal. A person cut by this blade will suffer the effects of a Jinx spell (as per Pits & Perils rules) causing them to suffer a -1 to all actions and saves but for the next round only. Due to their small size, witchblades can only cause one point of damage maximum regardless of attack roll.
