Ghollish Wide-axe
The Ghollish Wide-axe was a design of axe popular a few decades ago in the southern provinces of (insert kingdom), especially among peasants involved in the Sickle of Justice rebellion (though these favored sickles to axes).
Full Item Description
This axe {though identical in game stats to any other axe} resembles and especially wide double-headed axe with a stubby, curved handle wrapped in leather. The blade is sturdy, heavy-duty, and worked with a stylistic bear or other predator of some sort. The weapon is unusual in that it has some gold leaf inlayed on the haft; most makers of this type of axe were peasants of the Sickle of Justice and favored undecorated weapons which would set them apart from the ornately-bedecked nobility who they fought against.

I love the name, and the detail of the weapon itself was great, incorporating a little history and style into it as well. A little short though, and while I'm glad it wasn't the 'Ever-Devouring Axe of Doom and Hellfires That Kills Gods', I would have liked to have seen a little more elaboration on the history, with perhaps some variations on the central theme. Other than that, I'm glad we have some nice, realistic weapons in the citadel!
