I don't expect many people to want this (since it'd only help RP, and wouldn't help PK at all) but I always want to be like Inigo Montoya (character in The Princess Bride) and wield my weapon in my offhand, dramatically switching to my good hand in a fight.

If I hold something, then try to equip my weapon, it doesn't work. (unless I'm a swashy, I think)

Can we please make it work? Or is that too difficult to code?

I think that it would be awesome, if you could do that, but I don't think that it ever would happen.

You can have your lame animu sword fightan' style right after they add in trench coats and robes that cover up the other items you're wearing while it's closed and the ability to cast and hold Fly and Charm on your weapon so you can order it around like a flying, pointy pet.

Code:
You walk east.
An overacting male human is here.
A flying staff is here.
An overacting male human bellows, "Not so talented eh, Mr Ridley!"

If you were a merc, you could wield an unspecced weapon against someone, and then halfway through the fight be all like "There's something that I should tell you. This is not my specialty weapon."

Is that close? Not really? Meh.

I have a feeling it will be a lot less fun than you think.

The joke's on them. Most SK characters crave revenge against X because X killed their parents, where X is what will help them get into Y cabal the easiest.

Also, weapon gimmicks are stupid. Play a melee sorcerer.
