Steppe Saber (Patreon)

Weapon (scimitar), rare (requires attunement)

Longer than an average sword, these blades are built to swing down from above as their wielders gallop past on horseback. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. This bonus is increased to +2 if you are riding a mount.

Mounted Superiority. While you are mounted, if your mount moves at least 20 feet in a straight line towards a creature before you hit the target with this weapon, the target must succeed on a DC 14 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If your mount moves at least 40 feet in a straight line, the DC increases to 16.

If the target is knocked prone, you can immediately have your mount make a melee attack against that creature using your bonus action.

Though the Mongol warrior is famed for the ability to win wars from afar, some are arrogant enough to think the result would differ in close quarters. As our blades swing down from above, such thoughts are torn asunder as easily as their ranks. Any soldiers unlucky enough to survive our charge are quickly crushed underfoot as our mounts trample them into the dirt.
