A lance cultivated by Istryxian bio-adepts from a symbiont line kept since before Istryx made contact with the Federation. Each one is keyed to a single wielder over months of handling, and in another set of hands it is a poor spear. It needs feeding once a week. If it goes unfed past that, it goes dormant and deals 1d6 piercing damage until revived, which takes a day.
