Weapon Maintenance-Flex

Weapon Maintenance—Flex Martial Basic 60 hours Included for free with an appropriate weapon proficiency of level V or higher, this skill enables you to keep your weapons polished and deadly. Without good upkeep, edges dull, straps fray, and rust settles into metal. The Game Master may reduce bonuses or weapon features, and may even add penalties if care slips far enough. You know how to keep the ropes, chains, cords, leathers, and other flexible connectors well cared for and intact. Flex weapons also have swivels, D- or O-rings, and special knots that allow it to swing freely at an enemy. You also know what sort of flexible material to use, how thick, how long, and what would be a poor replacement.
