A traditional Aztec weapon popular in Aztlan, the maucauitl is a meter-long, wide-bladed ceremonial sword made of densiplast or oak. On opposite edges of the blade, sharpened slivers of obsidian provide the cutting edge. Though it looks jury-rigged and ineffective, the maucaitl is quite sharp and deadly. It can cut through flesh and clothing with relative ease; use the following rules for attacks against armored targets. Whenever the wielder strikes an armored opponent, roll 1d6. If the result is less than the target's Impact armor (or barrier) rating, the obsidian blades on one edge will break off, reducing the weapon's Power to (STR+1)M. If the blades on the remaining edge break off, the maucaitl then functions as a club, using that skill and damage.
