Dathomirian flail

The flail was a melee weapon used by the Nightsisters of Dathomir.

Description
A sinister looking weapon, the flail consisted of a cylindrical handle from which extended a flexible cord that ended with a razor-sharp, bladed bludgeon. About one quarter of the way up the the cord from the main handle, was a second grip for another hand, which allowed the wielder to swing the flail with accuracy and force. The last half of the cords leading to the bludgeon was studded with small spikes which could still inflict damage even if a target evaded the primary blades. The most lethal section of the weapon was a large scythe-shaped blade covering half of the bludgeon with multiple smaller blades protruding opposite the main blade.

History
After Count Dooku had betrayed her, and presumed her dead, Asajj Ventress returned to her Nightsister clan on Dathomir to seek a means of exacting vengeance against her former master. She traveled to the Nightbrother village to find a suitable warrior to be given to Dooku as her replacement, who would then turn on the Sith Lord and kill him. She chose a group of Zabrak Nightbrothers to be tested. The one who survived the trials would become her champion. During one of the trials, Ventress wielded a flail while using the Forceto conceal herself from sight and move at accelerated speeds. Using the weapon, she dispatched two Nightbrothers in a matter of seconds.
