Weapons
Note! This is Sebai legacy content for Dungeons and Dragons 5e and is no longer applicable to our Pathfinder 2e game. I simply keep it around in case I ever run 5e again. Refer to Archives of Nethys for relevant weapon stats.
Listed below are all the new and old weapons found in my game. They are separated into simple melee weapons, range melee weapons, martial melee weapons, and ranged melee weapons. (NOTE: The text bubble that appears when you hover over a weapon's group is its "Critical Specialization Effect". You can find more info about what that means here).

It must instead be carried by some other form of transportation such as a large creature, wagon, or bag of holding. Ammo cost: 1 round for 20 gp.

Spoon Gun
Price 80 gp; Damage 1d8 piercing; Weight 4 lbs.Hands 1; Range 30
Group Firearm; Traits Loading, Misfire (3), Reload (1), Scatter (5ft)
No one's entirely certain who developed the spoon gun, but all authorities agree that it was probably a goblin. Essentially a terrible idea in firearm form, the spoon gun is a spring-powered hand mortar with a modified grip that uses miscellaneous knives, forks, chopsticks, and spoons as ammunition. Users typically upend the entire contents of their cutlery drawer into the gun, aim it in the general direction of the foe, and hope it hits something. It has the scatter (5 feet) trait and uses cutlery or similar-sized objects as ammunition instead of bullets (enough cheap cutlery to fire ten shots costs 1 gp).
