Extending Chain[edit]

The weapon's chain can be extended or retracted at-will as a free action, allowing it to be used as a whip. This enhancement can only be placed on a chained weapon, such as a spiked chain or flail. The weapon's chain can be extended or retracted at-will as a free action. If you are proficient with whips, you can use the enhanced weapon with the range of a whip during your turn. You still threaten at your normal reach, but you may make attacks beyond at up to 15-ft., doing so provokes an attack of opportunity, much like doing so with a whip. The enhanced weapon counts as a whip for the purpose of feats such as Whip Mastery. A chain whip with this enhancement instead gain an extra 5-ft of reach in the hand of a proficient user during their turn.

The chains can otherwise be extended to up to 50-ft as a standard action, allowing you to perform mundane tasks such as using it as a rope or grappling hook. In this state it cannot be used as a weapon. Alternatively, the chain can be completely retracted as a standard action, turning the weapon into simply and hilt, in this case it cannot be used to attack, but counts as a light weapon for the purpose of storing. You can return the chain to a normal length as a move action, or as a free action if you have Quick Draw

This is a prestige enhancement. Equipment may have only a single prestige enhancement.
