A flail-like mace or axe belonging to the foulest of ferromancers. The blade is held together by a magical thingymajig which gives it enough pull and force to be swung with some give. The blades have been sharpened through years of use to accomodate their loose nature, and the uniqueness of the craft makes it a memorable sign of danger. Old legends say the various shards are remnants of unlucky passersby.
I had a lot of fun trying to design a different type of weapon and immediately fell in love with the idea of a weapon conjured of several shattered parts. Animating this boy was a ton of fun and I am really happy with how "alive" I got it feeling in the end. Naturally, a magical weapon with floating shards should have some sway to it.

Downloads are on if anyone desires to do something fun with it! All I ask is that you show me what you make with it (because I'm nosy and curious like that) :)!
