Upon creation, all characters may start with one primary weapon and two secondary weapons. These weapons are considered standard and easily acquired throughout all the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. More primary weapons can be purchased later on as you continue to progress. These weapons can only be sold for half the price after you have had your character for more than a month. Please copy and paste the templates of these weapons into your character biography when creating a character.

Longsword
Level: Common
Range: Short-range (1m)
Description: Longswords are a very common form of sword found across all regions in Westeros. They are wielded with one hand while the other hand normally holds a shield. 

Greatsword
Level: Common
Range: Short-range (1.5m)
Description: Greatswords are two-handed swords found all over Westeros. It is impossible for an individual to wield a greatsword with one hand due to its relative length and weight.

Bastard Sword
Level: Common
Range: Short-range (1.2m)
Description: Bastard swords are intermediate size swords wielded both by one-handed and two-handed practitioners. 

Axe
Level: Common
Range: Short-range (0.7m)
Description: Axes are short-range weapons that are used to chop and dice through opponents. They are often wielded by smugglers and raiders, as well as the ironborn. Axes are one-handed.

Bow
Level: Common
Range: Long-range (25m-100m)
Description: Bows are long-range weapons used to fire arrows at opponents from afar. Bows are often tossed aside when considered for a primary weapon of choice among warriors in Westeros.

Crossbow
Level: Common
Range: Mid-range (1m-10m)
Description: Crossbows are the close-range alternative to bows for still picking off opponents from afar in close combat. Crossbow bolts also take time to reload and as such, are inferior to swords in close quarters.

Dagger
Level: Common
Range: Short-range (0.3m)
Description: Daggers are short sidearms that can be tucked away on an individual for quick and easy use in close-quarters. Daggers are not strong enough to pierce durable armour, but can easily kill an unsuspecting foe when stabbed in the right place.

Shield
Level: Common
Range: Short-range (0m)
Description: Shields are normally used in the off-hand of a knight as a means for defensive combat. Shields can absorb damage from swords and other weapons that are the same level and below, but often leave the user slower and less agile.

Armour
Level: Common
Range: -
Description: Common soldiers wear armour to signify their forces and allegiances. Armour at this level can only sustain a few blows from other basic weaponry before cracking under the strain and becoming useless to the wearer.
