Heavy aspergillum

A heavy aspergillum was a weapon that combined the features of an aspergillum and a heavy mace. It was only used by the Ilmaterans of the kingdom of Impiltur.

Description
Like the ordinary aspergillum, the heavy aspergillum took the form of a metal club or mace, with a reservoir inside that could contain up to three flask's worth of holy water. Pressing a button on the shaft opened up the perforations in the head, allowing holy water to leak out. In this way, the aspergillum could spray holy water over a short distance or on anything struck by it, using one flask's worth per shot.

Unlike the ordinary aspergillum, the heavy aspergillum was designed as a melee weapon, with the effectiveness of a heavy mace.

Uses
In addition to its ritual uses, the heavy aspergillum could be used as a weapon as well as a means of spraying monsters with holy water. It was used almost exclusively by the worshipers of Ilmater the Crying God in the kingdom of Impiltur circa 1372 DR.
