Diminisher of Hope is similar to other [[gravitic]]-based bludgeoning weapons developed by the [[Jiralhanae]], such as the [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|gravity hammer]] and [[gravity mace]]. It employs gravitic impellors within its central core to create the gravitic blast when striking a surface, and combines this effect with twin asymmetrical plasma blades similar to those found on [[Energy sword (fiction)|energy swords]] or [[Atriox]]'s personal mace, [[Chainbreaker]]. The twin red blades serve as both a tool of close-quarters combat, but also as an epitome of the weapon's name—reflective of Escharum's long experience in warfare both before and after the assimilation of the Jiralhanae race into the [[Covenant]] empire.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | Diminisher of Hope is similar to other [[gravitic]]-based bludgeoning weapons developed by the [[Jiralhanae]], such as the [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|gravity hammer]] and [[gravity mace]].
