I’d like to see a new weapon implemented: the Katara.

A katara is a 1-3 foot dagger that has a horizontal grip, it’s a thrusting weapon, not a slashing weapon and is used primarily as a boxer uses their fists. For this incarnation I modeled the skills after the British version which has a clover blade (3 blades folded into 1 which spring open into 3 blades from the hilt, meant to eviscerate).

Skill 1: Thrust

Thrust your blade into your foe

Medium attack speed
High single target damage

Skill 1.a: Clove Blade

Open your blade inside the enemy, inflicting vulnerability

Medium attack speed
High single target damage
3 stacks of vulnerability for 5 seconds

Skill 1.b: Eviscerate

Twist you blade and pull it out of your foe, inflicting bleed

Medium attack speed
High single target damage
3 stacks of bleed for 5 seconds

Skill 2: Charge

Charge your foe, stabbing them with all your might

Charge distance: 900
Damage: high
Initiative Cost: 4
Attack ignores armor

Skill 3: Parry

Parry your foes next attack, disabling one random weapon ability of theirs and reflecting their damage.

Initiative Cost: 6

To be honest I haven’t though of dual wield skills for the Katara, was hoping you guys could help me fill in the blanks.
