You have studied extensively with the spiked chain and are able to fight with it and display more skill and finesse than most would believe. You gain the following benefits:
- You may use your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength modifier for attack and damage rolls you make with a spiked chain.
- When you take the Attack action and attack with a only a spiked chain, you can use a bonus action to make a melee attack with it against an opponent within 5 feet of you.
- When you draw a spiked chain, you can do so in such a way that the weapon's reach property is negated. By wrapping the chain around your arms and shoulders you gain a +1 bonus to AC but can only strike targets 5 feet away from you instead of the usual 10. Switching a spiked chain to or from this position while it is already drawn requires a bonus action.
