Exotic Weaponry

Exotic Weaponry was a tome dedicated to warrior craft, various arms, and the best ways to defeat dire monsters of the Realms.

Contents
The book was a collection of guides and personal battle experiences of a legendary paladin hero Acarus. The paladin recounted numerous encounters with every creature he's battled in his life. Each encounter was described in detail, including the best weapon required for the slaying. Several encounters in the book were of note, including the battle at the Glade of Eternal Twilight, in which Acarus used a weapon forged of cold iron against malicious fey. Weapons made out of adamantine were used in a battle against an iron golem of Darkfall Pass. The paladin even recorded his planar travels where he learned that cold iron weapons blessed by a goodly power were deadly to demons. Devils, on the other hand, were slain by alchemical silver weapons that carried similar benevolent blessings.
