Commission made for  Xanatien

Crafted by the Phaerakh of the relatively young, and nigh insignificant Ahasret Dynasty, the Halberd of Obliteration, held by Akat'Suphet the Vagrant, is a powerful relic showing her long history amongst the Necrons, kept intact since the time of biotransferrence. The staff itself bears many of the hallmarks of Necron noblesse and their artifacts, recounting her deeds, achievements, and marking points of distinction where she agreed less than civilly with many other Necron dynasties and their lords.

One of the chief reasons for her survival is held within the staff itself. At the head of the staff, between the halberd's blades, sits a curious micro-gravity well that is in truth, a shard of a long forgotten C'tan, Alke'itenve, the Knowledge Eater. In many of Akat'Suphet's dealings, she has provided assistance to other dynasties, sometimes at the expense of others, due to the knowledge provided by the shard. How much of that information has been true, and how much of it was a blatant lie, only the Shard itself knows, but it has earned her both a begrudging respect, and a vicious distaste when dynasties entertain her for visitations, typically only when she can provide assistance that no other would be suitable for.

It is also likely that the presence of a Shard held so close is among the reasons she has endured the distaste of so many for so long.

The Halberd bears in many ways the same fractal edged blades, along with phase shifting capabilities of its peers, yet when needed, can project the energy the staff generates in a similar manner to a Gauss flayer, distintegrating armor, scale, flesh and bone into constituent atoms and rending through the vehicles put between her and her objectives. When used against organic targets, even those bearing mighty Terminator or Wraithbone armor, it is the most likely case that the target within will be reduced to a cloud of flaming ash before the armor is even breached.
