Chainsword
The Chainsword is a devilish weapon created by Clan Garvug. The chainsword is essentially a sword with powered teeth that run along a double-edged blade like that of a chainsaw. The teeth are sharp enough to cause greivous wounds, and the saw's motor generates enough tourqe to rip through armor or bone.
Chainswords are not subtle weapons, and wielding one is a statement in its own right: they are horrific tools of war, designed to bite, tear and eviscerate where more traditional blades merely cut and slice.
The weapon makes an angry buzzing sound as the teeth spin around, intensifying into a high pitched scream as they grind into armour or bone.
