Second Shadow [CARD] (Patreon)

Weapon (shortsword), uncommon

The hidden blade cuts deepest. This ceremonial wakizashi features a beautiful floral tsuba with red and gold accents.

Shadow Strike. While wielding this dagger, the first time you hit a creature with another melee weapon on your turn, you can make an additional attack against the same target with this weapon as part of the same attack. You don’t add your ability modifier to the damage of the additional attack, unless that modifier is negative or you have the Two-Weapon Fighting fighting style.

A samurai never leaves themselves unprepared; to that end it behooves oneself to keep a second blade on hand in any situation. Short but deadly, a wakizashi complements its contemporary katana, and together can be used to deliver a flurry of lacerations to any would-be attackers.
