Steng's Talons

Steng's talons were a melee weapon used by the Yuuzhan Vong. Made from sguaru bones and covered with Yorik Coral, the talons were inserted into the body of a Warrior who had proved himself in battle. They could be extended or contracted by a muscle movement. The placing of the talons was very dangerous, and few Warriors actually survived the process. Those that did recieved even greater honor. The talons were included as part of the arsenal of the elite Slayers.

Steng's talons take their name from Steng, the first Warmaster.
