| Description = Among polearms, the fauchard (also known as 'the devil's fork') is the hardest one to use well. In the hands of a user without an exotic weapons proficiency, a fauchard will be next to useless. But once you learn how to wield it, it is deadly. A fauchard is similar to a glaive in that it grants 10 feet of reach. In addition, the back-hook has been turned into a forward facing prong, creating a 'fork' effect on the back of the weapon. To a skilled user, that fork enables both disarming attempts and trip maneuvers. A fauchard is better made than most pole arms, with good steel and selected wooden parts so it can be swung faster and harder than most pole arms. A fauchard does good damage and is much more maneuverable than you would expect, since a twist of the wrists can present either of the two tips for an attack. As a result it is much easier to score a dangerous strike with a fauchard than you might expect. The fauchard belongs to the "Polearms" weapon group. | |||
