Dire flail

The dire flail is a two-handed, exotic melee weapon that can be used as a double weapon.

Description
A dire flail is essentially two flails mounted on either end of a stout haft shorter than a quarterstaff. The chains that attach the spiked metal balls are longer than that of a normal flail but shorter than on a heavy flail. An average dire flail costs 90gp and weighs 10lbs (4.5kg).

Weaponology
The dire flail is a double weapon that can be used for two-weapon fighting and must be wielded two-handed if so. The chains of this and other members of the flail family are particularly good for entangling enemy weapons and disarming them. The dire flail can also be used to make trip attacks.
