Adarga: A weapon designed for parrying as it comes equipped with a small spiked shield attached to a short spear. This is functionally a double weapon, allowing the wielder to fight with it as if fighting with two weapons. If done so, you incur all the normal penalties when fighting with two weapons, as if you were wielding a one-handed weapon and a light weapon (See SRD). If wielded in one hand, it may not be used as a double weapon. This weapon, when not used as a double weapon, confers the same bonuses as a buckler.
