Males possess both a smaller blade and sheath than females, allowing the male to enter the female but not vice-versa. Doublade is much the same, although only a single blade and sheath are used for reproductive purposes. In regards to Aegislash, no matings have been observed by those still living, although countless researchers have been slain in the attempt, causing many to speculate that Aegislash uses wanton slaughter to select a mate.
