A runner's blessing is in essence a sickle with an elongated handle. The blade is rounded on the inside of the curve and sharpened on the outside, so that a cross section of the blade resembles a raindrop. The handle is covered in leather straps or wire for added grip, and the blade is securely fastened onto the handle so that the hook can handle a large amount of stress without breaking. The Runner's Bliss is favored by characters who have a wish to reach high places, as it can be used to hook around a roofbeam, a treebranch, or a rope, allowing the weilder to get up higher than usual. If a person weilding a runner's blessing makes a [[SRD:Jump Skill|jump]] check with a running start, and has something to hook the weapon over when he makes the [[SRD:Jump Skill|jump]] check, then their ability to jump is unbounded by their height, for that jump.

A runner's blessing is in essence a sickle with an elongated handle. The blade is rounded on the inside of the curve and sharpened on the outside, so that a cross section of the blade resembles a raindrop. The handle is covered in leather straps or wire for added grip, and the blade is securely fastened onto the handle so that the hook can handle a large amount of stress without breaking. A runner's blessing is favored by characters who have a wish to reach high places, as it can be used to hook around a roofbeam, a treebranch, or a rope, allowing the weilder to get up higher than usual. If a person weilding a runner's blessing makes a jump check with a running start, and has something to hook the weapon over when he makes the jump check, then their ability to jump is unbounded by their height, for that jump.

A character wielding a runner's blessing gains a +2 bonus on jump and tumble checks.

You can make trip attacks with a runner's blessing. If you are tripped during your own trip attempt, you can drop the weapon to avoid being tripped.
