Nature
Forged ere the eleventh Chaos Wars, Susan was originally intended to be weight-training to quicken the use of a lighter sword. However, her beguiling weight and speed enraptured her unfortunate bearer, and the aforementioned lighter sword has scarcely been used since. Her striking surface is longer than some clubs, allowing for fewer haft hits on opponents. The core of Susan is a PVC pipe, the handle portion of which has been left unpadded. This aspect of the weapon wards away the interest of other fighters.
When other fighters do wield Susan, in either moments of curiosity or emergency, they experience a form of betrayal. The weapon will don a very One-Ringish attribute by slipping from the hand, yielding to an opponent's strike, failing to connect in a shot that would otherwise do so, or any number of troubling outcomes. "She will betray you," Sare has admonished.
Susan, of her own wicked volition, will aim for an opponent's face is she is displeased with them. Sare has testified heartily that he is not responsible for these blows, and that the opponent must have done something to offend the club in some way. Victims are cited to have committed several offenses to the club, including being rhinohiding noobstars, or maybe saying something to insult the weapon (for example, her unpadded haft), having the fight name "Juicer," or just looking at her the wrong way. Ekam has received two bloody noses for the latter offense.
She bears the inscription, "Susan the Bashful" upon her haft, followed by the sickle symbol.
