[QUOTE="MeiRen, post: 1987670, member: 27625"] Nothing too creative here. It always struck me that there needed to be magical weapons for those who fight unarmed. They're a major part of the game, and having to build them into character classes which fight unarmed is a pain. So, with no further ado: Smash Ring Smash Rings enhance a character's unarmed strikes. Only a character who knows how ot fight unarmed may use these Rings: that is, a character must have Improved Unarmed Strike, Brawling, or the equivalent ability. Smash Ring add momentum and power to a character's unarmed strikes. A character's unarmed strikes do 1d6 damage (1d4 if the wielder is small, 1d8 if large.), with a threat range of 20 and x3 damage on a critical hit. (punch rings may be designed that instead have a threat range of 19-20 and that deal x2 damage on a critical hit.) A Monk wielding a Smash Ring is considered to be using a "special monk weapon". He may use the Smash Ring with his Flurry of Blows ability, but not with Ki Strike, Stunnning Fist or Quivering Palm. A Monk equipped with a Smash Fist does not deal increased unarmed damage based on her class level. The Monk must physically remove the ring to regain the benefits of these abilities. A Smash Ring counts as a ring for the purpose of occupying a character's "body slots". It is in all other ways treated as a weapon. Weak transmutation, CL 1st, Craft Magic Arms and Armor, Magic Weapon. 500 gp. Smash Rings+ A Smash Ring may be further enchanted. The rules for doing so are the same as for creating any other magical weapon. Many Smash Rings add qualities such as Flaming, if so, the Ring's ability does not hurt the wielder. The price of enhanced Smash Rings is the normal price for a weapon of its type: The powers of the Smash Ring are built into the cost, much as the price of a masterwork weapon is built into the cost of a more ordinairy magical weapon.
