If you wield this and have 30 Strength, on a critical hit, the flail automatically casts the spell Atomic Fireball centered on the weapon.

Atomic Fireball.
10th-level evocation.
A bright flash explodes centered on a location with a radius of 500 feet and deals 100d8 fire damage, 100d8 radiant damage, and 100d8 thunder damage. Atomic Fireball deals 1d4 poison and 1d4 radiant damage each day to any creature that took initial damage for 30 days. Atomic Fireball also desecrates the ground, similar to the Hallow spell, causing any creature that enters to take 1d4 radiant damage each day and each creature must make a DC 18 Constitution saving throw when they take damage. On a fail the target is poisoned for 1 year and takes 1d4 poison damage each day. This desecration effect lasts 10 years and cannot be dispelled save for a Wish.

Demon's Flail. Sounds like a Dark Souls weapon.

This is "mutually assured destruction" at its most basic level

Does this double as a lime squeezer for after battle margaritas?

So, uh….

This one has a spacer bar on it… lowbie gear…

Demon core. Open it, you die from radiation. Close it, it goes critical and explode.

Can someone explain this to me?

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

To add to what rogue said…

The small ball in the center is plutonium. The outer shells both hemispheres are lead. The lead reflects neutrons back in.

Opened up radiation poors out. Fully closed… it goes critical and gives off a shot load more. When doing experiments/lab tests, they would occasionally cover it up with spacers… or a screwdriver blade….

The screwdriver was more common because it was “convenient”- but more than a few times the hemisphere slipped off and flashed the research with lethal radiation.

This, is why it’s nicknamed a “demon core”- it’s killed more than a few people working with it

It's a plutonium sphere, was used for testing shapes to determine criticality(sustained nuclear chain reaction) in the Manhattan project.

Witness my IMPLOSION technique. Prompt CRITICAL.

Best part is no need to light a fire to warm water for tea after the battle

This image tickles my pickle

[–] roguetrick@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

I think @ilovethebomb is getting more out of it

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

A tickle or tingle are the first symptoms.

I'll call it, the blue flash.
