Anyone else get a mental image of a bizarre centaur-variation-thing when they saw this thread?

That would be as deadly to the wielder as to anyone else!  You'd sever your own arm at the first swing!  It's perfect!

He might have been HolistDective style. EG. He picked one up to use as a weapon in addition to his normal leggings.

I was kinda disappointed when the second half of the notification popped up, to be honest. 

I was thinking more along the lines of this legendary champion, all clad in dented and dinged up steel plate, his blood-drenched axe slung over his back, a notch in the handle for every enemy that saw the swing of that blade as the last sight they ever saw, a battered shield strapped over his arm... and a fluffy, pink stuffed hippo hidden discretely in his breastplate.

... yeah I thought he was making mashed potatoes out of his enemies with a hippo he was holding.

Yeah I just had this mental image of a dwarf in steel armor thundering down a giant hippo on his enemies, the hippo just making some kind of happy face ^-^ and the dwarf with an awesome expression <o>_<o>

Frankyl, I saw a grizzled dwarf, covered in scar patting a montrous hippo with some poor goblin stuck on it's teeth. The best kind of hippo.

I imagined conjoined hippo-dorf twins. But that would be just silly because multi-tile creatures haven't been implemented yet.
