Giant Catch PoleEquipment 3
Price 50 gp
Weight 2 bulk
This sturdy pole has a rope attached to one end in a loop with the other end extending to the handle. You can pull the handle side of the rope to tighten the loop. Using this loop, you can Grapple without having a free hand. A creature grabbed this way receives a –2 circumstance penalty to attack rolls when Striking with an unarmed attack. Due to limitations in the size of the loop, a catch pole can only be used on creatures sized Medium or smaller.
A giant catch pole is made from thicker steel and heavier rope. It functions the same as a catch pole but can be used to Grapple creatures up to your normal size limit. However, the implement is so ungainly that you are Clumsy 1 while wielding it.
