Fang Weapon: A Fang weapon is a metal shell (in a spider fang shape) with protruding blades that Drow often purchase to help their "pets" (monstrous Spiders) cause more harm with their bite attacks. They are purchased as a pair, and are generally strapped to the fangs of a monstrous spider (usually one that serves as a guardian) and fastened on with straps. The fang weapon has a hole at its point where the fangs protrude, and so bite attacks from spiders with fang weapons still deal poison damage. A spider is automatically proficient with fang weapons.

In order to attach a fang weapon to a spider's fangs, you must pass a nature skill check to handle animal (DC 20), or else the spider will attack. If you are a spider rider, attaching fang weapons to you spider mount does not require a skill check. The check must be retaken to remove fang weapons, and the check is automatically passed when removing fang weapons from a dead spider. Fang weapons can be enchanted in the same way that a normal weapon can.

Handcrossbow, Repeating: A rectangular magazine attaches to the top of this hand crossbow. A lever drops a bolt in place as a free action and then a trigger fires the bolt as a standard action. A repeating hand crossbow does not have to be reloaded as long as it has ammunition in its magazine. A magazine costs 1gp and holds 5 bolts. It takes a standard action to remove an empty magazine and load a new one. For all intents and purposes, a repeating hand crossbow is a hand crossbow.

Lance: A lance is a weapon favored by mounted warriors. It consists of a long shaft with a sharp point on the end, and is designed to make devastating charges. A lance is a one-handed weapon when you use it mounted, but is a two-handed weapon when you use it on foot.

Charging: A charging weapon gains the high crit property and a bonus to damage rolls equal to the charging value given when the wielder charges.

Mister: A mister deals no damage, but it can be used to transfer a poison to an enemy with an attack (as if the mister was a poison vector).
