A big wooden door (under 75 pounds) it appears to be a light shade of grey and contains the inscription "ᛞᛟᛟᚱ" (it means door) written on it
As proven by Rood, a door is a force to be reckoned with. Now this door comes with added bonuses, such as being able to throw the door and have it magically fly back to you, probably hitting a few people on the way.
The door also has the natural ability to hold people in place, seeing that it is, in fact, a massive door.
This massive door used to just be like any other door, but it was cared for and loved by rood so much and so much energy was put into it that it grew double the size and gained magical properties. Including returning to it's beloved owner.

When acting as rifles, the arms shift seamlessly; panels sliding open with a soft mechanical hiss to reveal weapon components, before unleashing precise blasts with a metallic report and the faint scent of ozone.
