Description

This is a custom-forged Gurj (traditional Indian mace), a heavy-duty blunt-force weapon designed for high-impact combat. It is the first of a celestial-themed pair, distinguished from its companion by its specific name and character. The Head: Features a robust, globular flanged head consisting of multiple steel fins. These flanges are engineered to concentrate the entire weight of the swing into narrow contact points, effectively defeating mail or plate armor. The head is topped with a tiered steel finial. The Shaft: Crafted from solid integrated steel, ensuring the handle can withstand the massive stresses of crushing strikes without bending or snapping. The Guard: A wide steel hand-guard disc separates the grip from the head, providing essential protection for the wielder's hand and ensuring a secure, locked-in hold. The Pommel: Terminates in a tapered pommel spike, allowing for defensive "jabbing" and increasing the weapon's utility in close-quarters grappling.
