Dwarven Braceblade

The dwarven braceblade was crafted by the enterprising gnomes that once lived alongside the Espian Dwarves. The gnomes created a falcata-like weapon, and the Dwarves saw the possibility, when looking at the gnomes weilding the awkward weapon designed for the dwarves that -just maybe- the oversized version would be... fun. A dwarven braceblade is effectively part greatsword, part greataxe. The haft of the Braceblade is connected to a greatsword-like blade in several places, leaving multiple handholds, and providing a sweeping profile. The profile makes it much easier to score critical hits, and the biting edge of the blade ensures that any such hit is a deep one.
