First depicted in Origins-Marionette, Eeshi's flail 'Three Principles of Faith' is a weapon all-but-unknown in the wastes.  Modeled off of the western threshing flail, 'TPF' can be understood as a light-weight ball-and-chain that relies upon speed rather than destructive force for its effectiveness.  Traditionally utilized as a non-lethal weapon by constabularies in the empire (though with longer chains), the version Eeshi carries has been modified to become a weapon of war by adding numerous spikes to the solid balls.  Additionally, each ball can be detached from the chain (via an ingenious mechanism created by Idhru) and thrown.  These balls, when projected by Eeshi's preternatural strength, can strike with the strength of a low-grade firearm.  The name, inherited from Idhru's devout past, is one that Eeshi has held onto despite the irony.  Though its effectiveness pales in comparison to most weapons of the wastes, its utter exoticism puts many opponents at a disadvantage in defending against it.
