Wood may be scarce, bows rare and precious. Shafts can be bone or similar material. Obsidian and quartz are extraordinarily sharp yet fragile. Such a rock-glass blade can only reach the size of a hand at the most. See above for possible uses for weapons. If a stone weapon that slashes or pierces is made of fresh obsidian or quartz, increase the base damage die by one step up. For example, a Stone Edged Club used versatilely is base d8, thus steps up to d10 if the edge is fresh obsidian. For each, natural 1 fumble to the d20 attack, decrease the damage die by one step down: d12 → d10 → d8 → d6 → d5 → d4 → d3 → d2 → destroyed You can use an 8-hour long rest (!) to try repair a damaged obsidian or quartz blade, by chipping away at its edge to reveal a new sharper edge. This process reduces the amount of stone left. (Compare sharpening a pencil.) Do skill checks (ask DM, craft or knowledge). Each success increases the damage die by one step up, to a maximum of one above the base damage, thus refreshing it. Oppositely, each failure decreases the damage die by one step down, possibly destroying it. The stone fragments of a destroyed weapon can be recycled to make a different kind of weapon, with a smaller blade. [/QUOTE]
