Axe

An axe may take several forms, from a humble wood cutting implement to the mighty great axe. Typically, an axe takes the form of a shaft or handle with either one or two sharpened heads at one end. Commonly, the shaft is wood and the head will be steel or some other hardened material. Axes come in all shapes and sizes, depending on their intended use. Axes are often considered as melee bladed weapons although smaller ones may be thrown and count as ranged weapons. Battles axes would class as a medium weapon while Great Axes class as a heavy weapon. Some people use advanced materials to construct axes which deal more damage, are more durable, or are lighter than their common counterparts. Exotic add-ons may add esoteric damage types such as energy discharges, gravity waves, temperature extremes, etc.
