@Garnelen7, here's my answer to your comment about the "Asdercoas", the weapon of the Asteras.
          
          let's see...
          
          the cane would have looked like an ordinary long piece of light brown stick -smoothened-, if it wasn't for the fact it has 3 white handles with carved swirling patterns, positioned on equal distances from each other. also because on the tips, there are holes in which the sharp steel heads are hiding and cause the cane to become in an instant a double spear.
          
          the handle in the middle of the cane is responsible for causing the spears to appear on its 2 ends, trigger the inside mechanism that causes them to come out. 50% it has to do with the right pressure that handle is clenched, 50% it has to do with WHO clenches. almost automatically, if the handle is clenched by its one and real owner, it will work perfectly fine. the reason as to why one and only person is meant to be able to handle this weapon lies to the type of wood the handles are made. i call the tree from which its wood is used to make the handles as 'Mnemosa', a magical tree that can 'remember' alive beings by their magic aura, but ESPECIALLY of whoever's blood it drinks (lore which i haven't written anywhere on this story yet and it's still on drafts, anyways) and can distinguish who's good or bad. if it likes the alive being it will be chill and come to a state trying to connect. but if it senses evil it becomes basically the whipping willow from harry potter.
          
          the Asteras who get to have their own weapon have to make a small blood sacrifice by slashing their palms and then rub them against the handles of the cane. once the handles feel and drink the blood of the monster, aside changing color and from light brown turn white, they solely get attached to their Astera and respond only to them. they almost read their thoughts and follow their silent command.

@ TheLonerWraiter  to hide the spear further
            I'll try to make some rough drafts the next 2-3 days to show how I think the canes may look (big emphasize on try)

painted black? why?
            
            as for inspiration, i mean, i guess i looked at many kinds of spears and fighting canes to make up my mind about how i imagine an asdercoa like
