Baneklaives are the Black Spiral Dancers’ answer to the Grand Klaive. These are Level 5, Gnosis 7 Fetishes.
Overview[]
These carefully tooled sword-length klaives are typically engraved with twisting runes and gleams with pale green balefire when activated. Although not as skillfully tempered, they count both as silver and as Wyrm emanation for purposes of inflicting damage. Normally, the Black Spiral Dancers bind various Banes into their weapons in order to enhance their deadliness.
The Dancers have also developed a crude imitation of the art of klaive dueling.
