A hand crossbow is a very small crossbow, typically intended to be fired early in a combat and discarded, to be retrieved and loaded after the fight ends. They are favored by drow as a means of delivering poisons. You can draw back the action of a hand crossbow by hand. You can shoot, but not load, a hand crossbow with one hand at no penalty. You can shoot a hand crossbow with each hand, but you take a penalty on attack rolls as if attacking with two light weapons. Hand crossbows can be purchased in higher draw weights to match the Strength bonus of the wielder. This costs 25 gp per Strength mod plus added.

Load: Loading a hand crossbow can be performed with either a move action or an attack action. The reload time can be reduced by taking the Rapid Reload (Feat).

The hand crossbow belongs to the "Crossbows" weapon group.
