Weapon Qualities:
The largest and most deadly of the one handed swords, the Saber is the long sword's meaner brother. A saber has a very small grip to reduce weight, with a light basket hilt instead of a heavy guard, so that the blade may be made as long and heavy as possible. Even though a saber is only a few inches longer over all than a long sword or bastard sword, the blade is as much as a foot longer than a long swords. To give the blade as much strength as possible it is curved and has only one edge, for lightness. The small grip and long, heavy curved blade makes it optimized for long sweeping cuts. A Saber usually inflicts large, messy wounds, thus the high damage, and the exotic heavy-bladed design allows for heavy cuts, so critical damage is not impacted. The size and unusual fighting style demanded by the curved shape makes it an Exotic Weapon. The Saber belongs to the "Blades, Heavy", weapon group.
