Two Heavens As One

 the Lesser Forms

A fechtbuch found while adventuring in Babilar.

This book is a study on a fighting style involving two bladed weapons, one long the other short. It describes several exercises, strikes, blocks, and the footwork involved, all of which culminates in a pair of maneuvers. One who spends four downtimes studying and practicing the various activities described herein may learn one of the two maneuvers. The other can be learned with a further 4 downtimes. However, until the ability is used 3 times in real battle it is not set……..

Heavenly Surge

Bringing both weapons to bear, moving rapidly as you strike at your opponent. If you hit with your attack you may choose to reduce your damage by 1d3 but grant yourself advantage on your next strike.

Heavenly Strike

This must be declared before rolling initiative. Two heavens as one, two blades as one, you strike, forcing your opponent to choose which to block. You roll this attack at disadvantage (canceled if you have advantage). If you hit you roll damage for both weapons. If you miss (but don’t roll a 1) you open yourself to attack resulting in a +2 to attacks against you until the end of the next round and then roll 1d6, 1-2 you still deal the damage of your primary weapon, 3-4 you deal the damage of your offhand, 5-6 you fully missed.
