Kore (daughter of Zeus and Demeter) is the fluffy bunny teenager. Demeter was more motherly (and more of an agriculture/harvest goddess anyway). And let's not get into fertility goddesses who are also war goddesses (Ishtar, Freyja, that Aztec gal...).

You know what else this is great for? My current Dark*Matter conspiracy/Monster Hunters" game! Mwahahahaha!

Edit: Okay, the diabolical whips alone are worth the $5. A 7-foot long, barbed diabolical whip "cracked" by a Strong Demon does hellish damage (heh): 5d+10 cr. LOL.

I also kind of love the idea of a fine, quicksilver all-metal great axe: sw+4 cut base damage, +1 for fine, x1.5 for quicksilver = sw+7 cut. The ST 21 barbarian with such a weapon does 4d+6 cut. How fun is that??

Kali. Destroyer of evil forces, divine mother of the universe.

Sekhmet, the lioness. Warrior goddess, protector of women giving birth

Wait wait wait...

What's better than Fantasy-Tech giant swords and double-wide blades? ULTRA Tech giant swords and double-wide blades.

Let's see, ST 30 for the Wide Sword is really no problem for power armor. Let's make that a superfine vibrowire wide sword...

sw+8 cut base --> sw+2d+8(10) cut @ ST 30 = 7d+10(10) cut.

That'll get through DR 300...
