1. See Damage Increases by Size to calculate the damage for a weapon larger than Medium or smaller than Small.
2. Weight figures are for Medium weapons. A Small weapon weighs half as much, and a Large weapon weighs twice as much.
3. When two types are given, the weapon is both types if the entry specifies "and", either type (player's choice at time of attack) if the entry specifies "or", or each end of the double weapon is a different type if the entry specifies "/".
4. The hp value given is for Medium armor, weapons, and shields. Divide by 2 for each size category of the item smaller than Medium, or multiply it by 2 for each size category larger than Medium.

Unlike its smaller counterpart, this wickedly edged wooden or metal fan is unmistakably a weapon and cannot be disguised as anything else. A war fan may be opened or closed by the wielder as a swift action. When opened, it deals slashing damage and the wider area grants the wielder a +1 bonus to their Armor Class. While closed, the fan's more fragile components are concealed by the hardened frame, making the fan deal bludgeoning damage. In addition, closing the fan allows for the concentration of the force of an attack into a smaller area, conferring a +1 bonus on damage rolls for attacks made with it.
