			===Weapon Damage Properties===
			Every weapon has a base damage associated with it by type, but gets additional bonuses based on the following.

			====Quality====
			Weapons can come in four quality levels: Poor, Simple, Fine, and Very Fine. They receive additional points of damage as such:
			*Poor: -1
			*Simple: +0
			*Fine: +3
			*Very Fine: +5

			====Plus Values====
			If a weapon has a +# associated to it, it deals an additional amount of damage above the base, a +3 longsword deals 9 damage instead of base 6. By default, +damage is excluded from glancing blows, but characters who qualify for the Weapon Finesse facet can get this added in.

			====Extra Effects====
			Extra effects, such as enchantments, add additional damage. These can come from enchantments, rituals, or other special bonus augmentations.

			====Bonus Damage====
			Bonus damage, such as from activated or triggered abilities, is added on top of a successful attack whether or not it is a glancing blow. This includes Sneak Attack damage, effects from temporary enchantments, etc.

	===~~Effect Roll~~===		===Rolling for Damage===
	~~Each character assembles their own~~ "~~Effect Dice~~" ~~for use~~ on ~~attacks~~. ~~This is a six-sided~~ dice ~~where each side has been mapped to~~ an effect on a ~~table~~. ~~Some builds will be able to add additional effect dice for more damage~~.		Instead of rolling individual damage dice, you instead roll "effect dice" that determine how effective the attack was. Each weapon deals a set amount of damage with different tiers based on the effect. Players roll three effect dice, and if any two dice show matching numbers, they get an effect based on the table bellow:

			<table border="1" cellpadding="5">
			<tr><td>'''Side'''</td><td>'''Effect'''</td></tr>
			<tr><td>1</td><td>Glancing Blow</td></tr>
			<tr><td>2</td><td>Glancing Blow</td></tr>
			<tr><td>3</td><td>Glancing Blow</td></tr>
			<tr><td>4</td><td>Strike</td></tr>
			<tr><td>5</td><td>Full Hit</td></tr>
			<tr><td>6</td><td>Critical Hit</td></tr>
			</table>

			If no matches are rolled, the hit is treated as a glancing blow.

			A roll encompassing three 6s is a Vorpal hit and instantly kills most targets.

	====Base Effects====		====Base Effects====
	The basic effects are: Glancing Blow, Light Strike, Full Hit, and Critical Hit. How the player assembles their effect dice is up to them, but the different types have their own values. Players get 4 points to build their base effect dice with, and earn additional points from Facets and by leveling up.		The basic effects are:

	*Glancing Blow ~~- 0~~		*Glancing Blow
	**Base weapon damage only, no bonuses for quality or + values, or special effects		**Base weapon damage only, no bonuses for quality or + values, or special effects

			How about "Critical Multiplier" and "Critical Threshold"? In this system, the weapon has 2 effects on it: critical multiplier(how much the damage increases on a crit" and "critical threshold" how many dice have to match to get a crit. For most weapons this will be 2, but for some it may be 3 and for others it may just be 1(E.G. one 6 counts as a crit)

			Will also add some feature where you can roll extra dice or if all 3 dice match that makes it extra special.
