Hamatula Strike

System: Pathfinder | SRD

Types: Combat

You can catch your opponents on your weapon and hold them in place.

Whenever you damage an opponent with a piercing weapon, you can immediately make a grapple check; success means the opponent is impaled on your weapon and you both gain the grappled condition. While the opponent is impaled, as an attack action you may make a grapple check on your turn at a –4 penalty to damage the opponent with your weapon, even if your weapon cannot normally be used in a grapple.
