The Ankeric Spear is an Oceanykan polearm measuring anywhere from 2 to 3 metres, designed to be used One-Handed alongside the Ankeric Shield, and used extensively by the Second Ankeric Empire of the Murray-Darling Basin. While the original version featured a tin bronze spearpoint, later reproductions almost universally possess a wrought iron or steel spearpoint. Imperial spears are an evolution of traditional Aboriginal spears optimised for fighting in close formation, lacking the flexibility of being able to throw them as a spear.
