''"CLONG!"''
[[Image:WarChime.png|A war chime|right]]
A war chime is unwieldy to use in one hand without special training. A character can use a war chime two-handed as a martial weapon.

The weapon itself is a hollow cylinder, much like a wind chime or a pipe organ's pipe, reinforced for combat. A long handle extends from one end, while the other end is open. All war chimes are masterwork weapons. The price given above reflects this.

When this weapon deals a successful critical hit or an attack with a "natural 20", it deals an additional 1d8 [[SRD:Sonic Effect|sonic]] damage. 

The chime itself can be rung as a [[SRD:Standard Actions|standard action]] to make noise or sound a warning.

Traditionally, the war chime is used in ceremonies rather than combat. Some guard outposts carry war chimes to signal warnings simply by hitting it on something hard (such as an enemy troop).

These statistics could also represent a war tuning fork.
