Some of the power of their captive is still retained in the black iron of their coils. When swung, the chains hit with tremendous force, but their primary power is that anyone surviving the force of the blow runs the risk of having his soul enslaved to the wielder of the chains.

It is now empowered with two sets of runes. The first amplifies the potency of the tooth's venom and enhances the poison resistance of its wielder. The second rune will grant the wielder extreme patience and enhanced awareness of his surroundings, which can make an assassin extremely efficient. There is no handle as such, but the base of the tooth is wrapped in angel skin to nullify the otherwise baneful effect on the wielder.
