Advantage

Assassin's Shortsword is an uncommon, lightly enchanted (+1) special variant of the Shortswords family of weapons. It is a simple melee weapon wielded in one hand. As a finesse weapon, it can benefit from the wielder's Dexterity and not just their Strength. It's a light weapon that anyone can dual-wield without special training.
