Kal'hris

A Kal'hris (plural: kal'hrisni) is an Andorian axe-weapon, whose name translates to "beautiful weapon."

The kal'hris is can be used in many ways, either as a slicing axe, to jab using the spike on top, or alternately to help climb ice cliffs. Having so many edges on the weapon, it allows the user to attack with unusual angles.

Their design is loosely defined and can be almost any size (some being so long they are "technically pole arms.") The handle generally ranges from 75-180 cm, the blade 15-28 cm, and the spike 10-25 cm. They typically weigh between 1.8 and 4.9 kg. Many Andorians like to elaborately decorate their kal'hris, hence the translation. (LUG: "The Andorians: Among the Clans")


 * In the "Role playing game", a kal'hris has an accuracy of 8, block of +1, and damage of 4+2d6.
