This Ryyk kerarthorr was made specifically to be able to withstand lightsaber, after Arthakk previous Ryyk kerarthorr was easily cut through by a Sith Assassin. He was given beskar by a Mandalorian as a material to help Arthakk construct the blade he needed. Arhtakk is highly proficient with melee weapons and prefer to engage in close combat, making the Ryyk kerarthorr the perfect weapon for his combat style as it is a native weapon for a Wookiee. After he constructed his new Ryyk kerarthorr, he went to Spear, to have it imbued with the force so it could detect force user to prevent him getting ambushed or caught of guard by force user like before. Once the weapon was completed, he named it Terentatek after a species of hulking bipeds found on the arboreal planet of Kashyyyk that craved the blood of Force-sensitives, the perfect name for a weapon to be used against Arthakk enemies especially hostile force user.
