Arslan's Weapons are a pair of unique tools. She uses a chained dagger whip and a Fire Dust hand wrapping that is tied to a rope. Arslan Altan is first seen wielding the weapon in "Round One".[2]
Description[]
The first of Arslan's weapons is a metallic dagger with a detachable blade that is trailed by a chain, commonly known as a rope dart or a rope javelin. It features an ornate steel lion head carving on its handle.[3]
Arslan also uses a hand wrapping on her sleeved arm which contains a Fire Dust crystal on her palm. This allows her to "punch" fire, as seen in "Heroes and Monsters." The wrapping is also able to fire a rope, which is capable of tripping opponents, demonstrated when Arslan tied the string around Yang Xiao Long's foot, causing the latter to lose her balance.
Arslan can also fasten the rope to terrain to use it as a sort of grappling hook or swing rope, which is particularly useful in the slippery ice environment of Team ABRN's match with Team RWBY.
She is also seen doing this with the chain whip in "Battle of Beacon" when she attaches the blade to a Nevermore in order to lift Yatsuhashi Daichi and throw him in the air. This also indicates that the rope attached to the dart is very strong, being able to carry the combined mass of Arslan and Yatsuhashi without breaking or releasing its dart from the opponent.
