Ghoulish Pike

Description
"Ghouls, man called them, eaters of human flesh, spawn of darkness, children of unholy matings of a lost and forgotten race with the demons of the underworld. Somewhere in these primitive forests were the ruins of an ancient, accursed city, men whispered, and among its tombs slunk gray, anthropomorphic shadows-Conan shuddered strongly."

- The Hour of the Dragon

When the people of the northern Argos bury their dead, they bury them deep. This is because the forests near their homes are haunted by the savage demons known as Ghouls. Ghouls will dig up the dead to eat them and, if desperate, seek to prey upon the living.

This pike carries the taint of the ghoulish race upon it, poisoning the flesh it damages.

With superior reach the pike is a common weapon on the battlefields of Hyboria. The most effective use of the pike is from behind the lines of battle, thrusting into the gaps in a shield wall.

The thick haft and weighted end mean that the pike must be wielded in two hands.
