a couple things i noticed:
1. the shortsword properties mention t'lingbet instead of akanni
2. the shortsword has a +3 to hit instead of a +5 for no reason i can discern
I seem to keep thinking on what it was and not keeping thought on what it is. I'm reading it and thinking, Adept is the new monk- ok, Exertion is the new Ki, ok, and so on. I probably just need to play with it more, but that is what seems to be happening to me when I read it.
