A '''triple-headed flail''' is a type of [[weapon]] that appears in [[EvilHack]] and [[Hack'EM]]. It is a [[two-handed]] melee weapon that uses the [[flail]] [[skill]], and has a default [[Object materials (EvilHack)|object material]] of [[bone]].

The triple-headed flail is the [[base item]] for the [[artifact weapon]] [[Butcher]].

==Generation==
Triple-headed flails are not randomly generated, though they can be [[wish]]ed for.

If Butcher is left in a [[bones]] file, it will revert to a triple-headed flail since it is intended to always generate in the possession of [[Yeenoghu]].

==Encyclopedia entry==
{{encyclopedia|
When you are swinging a spiky ball on a chain, the only
realistic option is to keep moving. Standing still is an
interesting but brief demonstration of a spiral in action.
