Price1700 gp
UsageHeld in two hands

This rusted shovel functions as a +2 striking decaying glaive when wielded as a weapon, but it more closely resembles a neglected tool. Its haft was carved from the trunk of a long-dead tree that once grew among the broken stones of an abandoned cemetery, and its blade was forged from shattered remnants of the armor that failed to protect those buried there. When you carry or wield a gravedigger's call, you gain a +1 item bonus to Perception checks to Seek haunts and to skill checks to determine the reasons for a haunt or spirit's existence.

Critical Specialisation Effects

Certain effects can grant you benefits when you make a Strike with certain weapons and get a critical success. This is called a critical specialisation effect. The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialisation effect of your weapon.

Polearm: Move the target 5 feet in a direction of your choice. This is forced movement.
