Eisrand

Eisrand is a melee-class collapsible dust-infused baton used by Team STRM's tactical specialist, Tern Boreas.

Registration Form
As a registered weapon, Eisrand is classified primarily as a close-range bludgeoning weapon. In its sword form, it can be used as a slashing and piercing weapon with the capacity to use dust.

Design
Eisrand is stark black, made out of strong heat-resistant carbon fiber, ensuring it is both lightweight yet still carries enough force for debilitating bone-breaking strikes. In its collapsed form, it is ten inches long with a small ring at the bottom of the grip, attached to a small teal detachable cartridge which contains seven discs of crystallized dust. With a simple flick of his wrist through friction locking, Eisrand extends into its main combat form as a twenty-five-inch baton. This is how the weapon is primarily used, using forceful strikes and jabs to break bones and cause muscle spasms in both grimm and humanoid opponents to incapacitate. When used in conjunction with his semblance, Tern is capable of transforming the weapon once more. By pulling the ring on the dust cartridge, Tern releases water, coating the baton in a sharpened sword-like form before hardening it into durable ice to slice through flesh.

Trivia

 * I have given the weapon the nickname "Tern's murder stick".
 * The name is German and means "ice edge" in reference to the semi-germanic roots of his family and the usage of this weapon.
 * Eisrand is probably the least effective of Team STRM's weapons when it comes to defeating Grimm.
