The Zwittentang is a huge gnarled staff (usually 18 ft long or so) that weighs at least 250 lbs. It is
traditionaly made from iron wood trees, although on Rifts Earth they are commonly made from mega
damage alloys or ceramics, as well as the occasional bone of a large supernatural creature or piece
of a mega damage tree. In order to use it with three limbs, one must have a supernatural PS of at
least 20, with four limbs, a supernatural PS of at least 16. For non Ra-hu men with only two limbs,
one must have a supernatural PS of at least 30, and the user must be at least 10 ft tall. When used
with two limbs, only WP Staff applies. When used with 3 or more, WP Zwittentang comes into play, in
addition to the bonuses and abilities of WP Staff.
The only defensive move that works with the Zwittentang is the basic automatic parry, regardless of
what moves the wielder can execute due to martial arts knowledge. Using it quickly requires lots of
experience, and moves like a circular parry aren't easy to do.
The Zwittentang does 6D6 MDC + the damage for the users supernatural PS.
