It's haft is long enough to give a momentum in combat and the doubled-edged blade of the war mattock has been sharpened to cut through bone. It is difficult to deflect blows with such a weapon, but what it lacks in defense, it has many other qualities that compensate in ferocity. It is surrounded by a red glow.
It contains a tale
The famous war mattock that was wielded by Karul, the ogre king, during the early tribal wars.
