Warriors in Thylea typically use spears, shields, and swords. There are exceptions, of course, but the armies of Mytros and Aresia train thousands of soldiers in the use of these simple armaments. Heavier weapons, such as halberds and greataxes, are thought to be barbaric. Ranged weapons are typically limited to javelins, slings, longbows, and shortbows, although there are some who have adopted the use of complex recent inventions, such as crossbows. These weapons are engineered in small quantities by the Academy and are not widely available. Thylea boasts a handful of unique cultural weapons, which can be found at just about any blacksmith or adventuring shop.

Chakram#

This bladed circular disc is an unusual thrown weapon. Warriors who specialize in the chakram can learn to throw it in such a way that it returns to them after cutting the enemy.

Dorata#

Dorata (singular dory) are spears carved from the wood of the ash tree.

Honorblade#

A massive sword once forged for one-handed use by gygans. Now wielded with both hands by only the strongest humans, it delivers crushing blows due to its weighted tip.

Kopis#

This forward-curving shortsword is heavier along the end of the blade. This gives it significantly more cutting power than a typical shortsword, allowing it to be used like an axe.

Makhaira#

This longsword has a single curved blade with a flat edge along the top.
