I'd like a spear with spikes at the end that leak toxic gas out in the victim that melts surrounding organs. Or a Naginata.

My weapon of choice is a banana. It confuses people. Then I run for my life.

So here's the story of my axe accident. Please bear with me, I didn't expect it to be so long.

Oh yeah, so as the story goes, a large tree fell in my yard during a storm, and my dad was away in Virginia, so it was my responsibility to take care of the thing. I don't know how to work a chainsaw yet, and I didn't want to take a big risk, so I grabbed the trusty old axe and headed out. It went mostly well; I was chopping off the big limbs so my brothers could take them to the burn pile in the back. After finishing most of it up, I found myself trapped by the rest of the tree around me, so I clambered up onto the trunk, axe in hand. I throw the axe out and into the yard, and begin walking down the trunk. About 2/3 down the way, there was a dead branch protruding from the main shoot. I used my gloved hand to rip the thing off of the trunk. My momentum, however, was against my success. It swept me off balance and I started to fall toward the jagged stump left by the branch. If I fell flat onto the thing I would have been completely gored and likely been killed. Luckily I had enough time to twist myself around enough to avoid certain doom.

On the descent, I felt a searing pain as the remnant of the branch tore into my torso, and I crashed through the rest of the branches before hitting the ground, gasping for breath. After a moment's recuperation, I was back on my feet and managed to clamber out of the thick of it and collapse painfully onto the hillside near my driveway. My mother saw the whole thing, and shouted to my brother to fetch a glass of ice water. I don't quite remember the next part, except that I stumbled into the house, turned the water on cold in the shower, and nearly passed out.

So now I have this long scar across my abdomen from when I almost died.

(sorry I was roleplaying and going to the store with friends)
but that story was scary but also freaking awesome the way you wrote it lol

@Mindful_Bison

Thanks. My friends always tell me that I should write an actual story, rather than Dungeons and Dragons. My only problem is not knowing what to write about.

@LudibrousLainey

Not to be a hater, but y'all midwesterners is crazy lmao

Very true, lol. I was there long enough to crack a grin whenever I see cows (or barns) along side of the highway.
@Mindful_Bison that would be absolutely terrifying! But that is a very cool story, I must say.

Just come up with the craziest plot you can think of and develop it.

@Mindful_Bison

I toyed with the idea of writing my Dungeons and Dragons campaign as a book with my players replaced with other characters. It's so far my best-developed world, with my best-developed characters. I think I'll do that now.

@Mindful_Bison

Thanks. The only thing I struggle with is the moments when nothing is happening. I like to think that I'm good at writing action scenes, but building bonds between characters and passing time by are a little foreign to me.
