It's a chain. You swing it, it hurts people. In some situations, it can double as a restraint. Very adaptable weapon. ( and it used to be able to kill things like shadows but he's gonna have to work on that one. get back to him in a few days. )

And yeah, I got that. I'm thinking out loud. ( drawing on past experiences to try and help them in their current predicament. ) Anymore wisdom you wanna drop on me?

( as he sees it, someone's going to have to face down these shadows and throw anything and everything at them to see what the hell works. )
