Item: Scourge
A scourge—also known as a cat-o'-nine-tails—is a set of several knotted cords made from cotton or leather and attached to a handle. While most scourges are more suitable for torture than combat, when fashioned into a weapon, a scourge can have metal barbs woven into the cords to pierce clothing and armor.
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.
Flail: The target is knocked prone unless they succeed at a Reflex save against your class DC.
