Spear
Equipment, Weapon
A basic thrusting or throwing spear.
From the book
The spear weighs 4 lb., deals 1-8 damage, needs a Strength of 8, and costs 1 G.P. It is priced with the missile weapons because it can be thrown, with an effective range of 5 ft. per point of Strength and a long range of 10 ft. per point.
One dose of venom coats four spear or javelin heads, and forging a magical spear with orichalc takes 2 ingots per +1. Witchdoctors can bind a spirit into an object such as a spear, which then counts as a magic item.
