Intent: A retractable cortosis Vibroblade for Ardgal Raxis
Development Thread: Here
Manufacturer: Ardgal Raxis
Model: N/A
Affiliation: Personal
Modularity: Vibroblade components may be changed out.
Production: Unique
Material: Cortosis
Classification: Vibroblade Bastard Sword
Size: One and a half hands
Length: 101 cm
Weight: 3.5 kg
Special Features:
--Cortosis: This blade is laced with Cortosis, and as such, posesses the ability to short out a lightsaber upon contact
--Overload capacitors: To prevent the vibroblade portion of the blade from being damaged by electricity there are a few special overload capacitors to keep this blade from shorting out or having damage to its vibrator components.
-- Mark IV Vibration cell
--Mark IV Energy Cell
--Tremor Cell
--Faraday Cage--for reasons
--Energizer batteries
--Retractable; when retracted this blade goes down to a third of its prior size, which is still heavy.
Strengths:
++Bastard Sword: The choice weapon among knights and warriors of old, this design speaks for itself with "punching power" and capacity to wreck havoc.
++Upgraded: This blade has some of the strongest vibroblade tech in it.
Weaknesses:
--Big, heavy: That about sums it up. Using this thing in battle is like waving a pair of 4x4s around. You can do a lot of damage but that wears the arms and shoulders out fast if you don't have TONS of stamina.
--Not for Amatuers: Bastard swords are some of the most dangerous weapons in blade history. These things require lots of training to even be decent at, and even more to be good at it.
--Still just a blade: This is not a cannon. This is not a sniper rifle or a missile able to wipe out a city block. Its a blade.
Description:
Ardgal Raxis, a general in his own right, knew that a warrior and commander are only as good as their blades. As such, when the chance for Cortosis presented itself, he jumped on it and went about making his own sword to his desires and specifications. He started with the design of the Bastard Sword, the blade he had been trained to use by his father from the moment he was old enough to know what a blade was. From there he added the needed technology to bring his blade into the next century, and wasted no small amount of time and money finding the needed vibro technology to do so. The result was the Ardgal'kal, a cortosis vibroblade unlike any other.
