MACE (bludgeon) =============== Weight: ~2-5 kg Rank(s): 1st row The mace is a direct descendant of the basic club, being nothing more than a wooden club with a stone or iron head mounted on one end. The head design varies, with some being spiked, others flanged, and still others with pyramidical knobs. The mace has existed since man began working with metal. The first maces were made in order to give the club wielder more power in his swing. High-level priests, knights, and even paladins may have a personalized, decorated mace that serves primarily as a symbol of rank. Since the mace is a weapon that requires very little in the way of specialized training, it is a favored weapon among the goblinoid races. Some skill(s) usable with the weapon: Battlecry, bludgeons, lure, pound and pulverize. See also: Blackjack, staff, jo, ice pick, whip, club, hammer, pick, cudgel, warhammer, morningstar, war mattock, battle mace, flail and maul.
