This long, dark metal, chain-link whip functions as a whip with a few different statistics. The whip has the heavy and two handed weapon properties, which replace the finesse property. Additionally, the weapons damage die is 1d10. When making an attack role against a target you can choose to attempt to grapple the target as part of the attack (making a contested role), as long as they are large or smaller. Once a creature is grappled by the chain whip you can use an attack to attempt to restrain the creature with another contested grapple check (Athletics versus the targets athletics or acrobatics). If the check is successful the target is restrained until they are able to break the grapple with an action. While a target is restrained in this way attacks made against them with the whip automatically hit and attacks cannot be made with the whip against any other targets if one is grappled or restrained within it.
Proficiency with a Glaive allows you to add your proficiency bonus to the attack roll for any attack you make with it.
This weapon has the following mastery property. To use this property, you must have a feature that lets you use it.
Graze. If your attack roll with this weapon misses a creature, you can deal damage to that creature equal to the ability modifier you used to make the attack roll. This damage is the same type dealt by the weapon, and the damage can be increased only by increasing the ability modifier.
Notes: Grappled, Restrained, Damage, Combat, Heavy, Reach, Two-Handed, Graze
