Peg leg

Properties

Description

A peg leg is a wooden stump with a socket built on one end to fit over an individual's knee. Pirates who lose legs at sea often wear peg legs. A peg leg reduces your base speed by 5 feet and imposes a –4 penalty on Acrobatics, Climb, and Swim checks. You take half damage from caltrops. Pirates often carve hidden compartments into their peg legs—these compartments can hold small items weighing up to 1 or 2 pounds (or a few swigs of grog). If you have two peg legs, your base speed is reduced to half and you take a –10 penalty on Acrobatics, Climb, and Swim checks. You are immune to damage from caltrops.

Peg legs presume that the knee joint is intact. If the knee joint is not intact, use the prosthesis statistics instead.
