BogModWeapons/Anset
Anset was one of the souls of the Ta’akozoka, the Great Tentacled One. A great giant he strode amongst the northern glacies. When the Primordial War began he came down from the north and took to the field of battle with his fabled spear. At 60 feet long and forged of imperishable ice and blue jade a sweep of that spear could fell dozens at a time. Aset while a capable warrior was a mighty hunter, a master of the northern glaciers and tunder and his own giant size no obstacle to him moving unseen and unheard before falling upon the Exalted. Yet it was not the Lunars or Solars or even the Sidereals who eventually caught and slew him. His prey was the weaker Exalted, the Dragonblooded and he would avoid their leaders. Yet they were many and where there are many they are strong. A wing of them, suited in armor gifted to them from the Mountain Folk struck at him at his hidden lair while he rested and slew him with charms to ensure he would never reform.
The gaint demons great spear was carried away and gifted to the Twilight who they served as a Gens. For the rest of the war it simply languished. It was only after the war that their master turned his attention to the weapon. Rather then break it down or just keep it as a trophy he set to his abilities as a Twilight and improved some of the latent powers within it. That, combined with certain charms developed in the war by the Dawn Caste and during the 50th year of rule by Queen Merala, when he had accepted the offer to join her kingdom, he brought it out during an arena battle to shock and impress his peers.
Though nigh impossible to properly wield in combat for any being with the right size the weapon has changed since it changed owners. Some of its power was derived from Anset and with his destruction was diminished. New things have been worked into it by the Twilight who claimed it. The weapon has three main powers.
The first is that it can be thrown even by a regular sized Exalt. It has no special ability to be carried however so the the ones who have claimed it would store it in Elsewhere, only to summon it and hurl at their foes. Against any target smaller than a building the weapon subtracts 3 successes from the attack roll and counts as having a -3 Accuracy instead of its normal stats.
The second power is that with an expenditure of 10 motes the weapon can create a fog bank identical to the Frozen Fog of the north complete with the freezing and translocation effects. The attuned wielder is immune to the power and the translocation power counts as a Shaping Effect.
The final use also costs 10m on its users part. It draws in raw elemental Air essence and then the next thing it strikes will freeze. This affects any structure up to the size of a large palace. Anything so frozen is supernaturally brittle, reducing soaks to 1L/1B.
