The Pike
{{pike|size: medium; margin-right: 10px; float: left}}{{pike|size: large; margin-right: 10px; float: left}}The pike is a mystical weapon forged in eighteenth century France. The pike was crafted by the hunter [[Marie-Jeanne Valet]] and Henri Argent, a young man well versed in the supernatural, specifically to slay the most savage werewolf that ever lived. Sebastien Valet or [[la Bete du Gevaudan]].
 
Marie-Jeanne and Henri conducted a druidic blood ritual to forge the pike. The steel of the weapon was forged out of [[wolfsbane]], [[mountain ash]] and Marie-Jeanne's blood, under the light of a [[full moon]]. Once fully forged, the pike was preternaturally lethal to La Bete, due to his being Marie-Jeanne's blood relative, her own brother.
 
In 1767, Marie-Jeanne finally tracked down La Bete, then speared the super-powered werewolf through the chest with the pike eventually killing La Bete. The pike later came to be in the possession of [[the Surgeon|Marcel]], Sebastien's devoted comrade.
 
The pike was kept by Marcel in his guise as the Surgeon throughout the centuries, and by the series present had been reforged into a sword, disguised as a cane. In [[Season 5]], when [[the Dread Doctors]] began their experimentation, abducting and producing the [[chimeras]] the surgeon would usually use the pike to kill off the chimeras and they died instantly.
