I mean, you decide which kind of generic weapon you use, but you get to describe it as you want, and you wouldn't be mechanically disadvantages for making a sub-optimal choice for a signature weapon.You could call your weapon a Fangblade, describe it as the ancestral weapon of your tribe, a long, flat, serrated blade with a crocodile-bone guard and have it behave mechanically the same as your buddy Björn's Viking Sword.AR</blockquote>
