Weapon Qualities: Non-Melee, Silent
Blowguns are generally used to deliver debilitating (but rarely fatal) poisons from a distance. They are nearly silent when fired. You can fire a blowgun with one hand, but reloading requires both hands. Since using a blowgun requires that the wielder blow the dart out with his mouth, it is not possible to dual-wield blowguns unless you have more than one mouth. Despite the appearance of being a projectile weapon, blowguns behave like thrown weapons, allowing only 5 range increments as a maximum range. The blowgun belongs to the "Thrown" weapon group.

Weapon Qualities: Expendable
Usable only with a blowgun, these darts are most obviously used to deliver poisons, or they can simply be an effective way to deliver extra damage from class features, such as a rogue's sneak attack, or a ranger's quarry dice.
