Without rage I don't have a health pool big enough to be a meatsheild, so I won't be dual wielding. If it's 1v1 I think I can wear him down through grapple and face punches.

[@Hekazu] could I possibly hold my kerambit in my shield hand? I'd like to think that the small dagger, with the ring hilt for extra grip, could be held in the same arm holding my shield. This way one hand can be used to grab the half-dragon and the they could be used to slash him up without sacrificing the protection of my shield.
