Daemos' Dual Kusarigama

[Matreya]

Intent: To craft a weapon more aimed for the sort of character Daemos is becoming.
Development Thread: http://starwarsrp.net/topic/22959-to-the-gods/
Manufacturer: JAC
Model: Dual Kusarigama
Affiliation: Daemos
Modularity: Yes (The weights may be removed so the chain endings meet, resulting in a Nunchaku like weapon.)
Production: Unique
Material: Beskar - Durasteel - Dantari Crystal
Description:
Range and close quarters combat were in mind during the creation of Daemos' chosen weapons. At the head of the weapon, where the main grip lies, is a miniature scythe crafted wholly of the best grade Beskar. It took months to perfect the dual blades and accompanying handles, then again grandeur has its price. After they were finished, Daemos paid top dollar to have droids finish the blades with an amazingly thin razor's edge.

With the combination of a hooked blade, comes the addition of a chain and weighted bearing. Both are crafted from thick links and an even thicker chunk of a Beskar-Durasteel combination. Through these, and the accompanying ability to attach both ends of chain together after removing the bearing, he is capable of reaching out and "tagging" his opponent as well as using it to touch multiple opponents all at once. They aren't as durable as the blades but they are capable of sustaining a few glancing plasma blows.

Then to even further enhance the amazing properties of such weapons, comes the inclusion of a Dantooine Crystal in each hilt. Both were chosen and obtained by Daemos himself, upon which time he placed them into the triune effect of creating Force Imbued weaponry. Thanks to these effects, whenever he becomes one with the blades, the amount of energy he can draw into himself at a set speed is altered; similar to a vacuum, he can draw upon the energy used from around himself while in battle. Strictly in battle itself. Lastly is the Force Imbuing itself. Made originally of Beskar, the blades edge would be capable of retaining itself quite well, but then now each blade and its form would glow with an enhancing black essence similar to the glow of a saber. This simply adds to the durability of each portion on its own.

Lambent crystals arent appropriate for a force imbued blade as the process destroys them and they are Vong biots. I cant approve beskar as I havent seen you do anything with or for the Mandos. An edge that thin will dull or chip instantly. This will need a very serious dev thread. Sorry to be blunf. On phone wantex to give quick feedback.

Darn...i really didnt wanna edit the crystal. I liked the idea of aiding finding others.. Oh well ill make the edits

I had the links in my 3rd post but edited them out afterward cosmetically

Edit:
-_- also been trying to get your aid with ember for months now that i think about it. Lol so in a way your also my proof. Also i made edits

@[member="Lord Daemos"] - You're linking me to a blank post, which I assume had a list of threads where you've contributed to the Mando faction. Having gone through your threads, I find one fight at the Dromund Kaas invasion and exactly five posts contributing to the faction in the last several months. This is marginal, token involvement, but I'll allow the beskar.

Some bits of your submission need a bit of an explanation, or need to be removed.

capable of glancing plasma blows.

Plasma wouldn't be appropriate for a weapon like this.

Thanks to these effects, whenever he becomes one with the blades, the amount of energy he can draw into himself at a set speed is enhanced. Similar to a vacuum, he can draw the energy around himself well.

You can't use Force imbuement to surround your body.

Also, Force-imbued weapons are very ancient. While the technique can be rediscovered, I need you to point to anywhere that you've RP'ed growing in metallurgical knowledge related to Force-imbued weapons, such as a training thread.

I was way more active with Daemos back when Voracitos was emperor. Then problems occurred and my muse fell. Zaiden was my only concern for a long time. I keep trying to bring my alts back, but fall short because of rl problems. Still working on it.

Being a Force Imbued weapon, wouldnt it be able to battle lightsabers?

The crystal as im understanding, was utilized to bring Force energies into oneself.

His first post not training with Voracitos was a thread learning how to do the process. He doesnt know the best routes though, only capable of the very basics.

@[member="Boolon Murr"] here is the newest thread with him using the process however

A Force-imbued weapon can battle lightsabres, yes, but not because -- ohhh, I see, you left out a verb there. If you mean capable of WITHSTANDING glancing plasma blows, beskar can do that anyway, and more.

From Wookieepedia: "Once the blade was forged, an initiate would place an energy crystal into the hilt of the blade, and then would marry the lattices of the crystal and the blade together." In other words, a living crystal would certainly be killed by physical integration with the blade.

No, a Force-imbued blade doesn't bring lightsabre-resistant energies into the wielder.

There's a couple of good posts in the thread you linked me to, but I'm still not fully comfortable with approving a weapon that's both Force-imbued and made of beskar, especially not because Dantooine, or Dantari, crystals are a ) primarily game tech and b ) have enhancement effects. You need to spell out exactly what you expect from the Dantooine crystals, and for a weapon like this, the 'powerful, custom personal weapons' clause comes into effect: I'm going to ask for a dev thread.

Lol? I meant the crystal draws the Force into the blade then into Daemos in the same way the crystal does according to wookiepedia. The page says when utilized it allowed the user to recover energy quicker, even drawing on energy around them during battle. That was what i sought, disabling the strictly aiding to needing battle to aid recover the energies. Ill spell it out better.

However, would this still need a dev thread if i remove the added Force Imbued portion? Then im strictly using a defense ability that i will have to focus on to use, and Beskar.

[Ashin Varanin]

@[member="Lord Daemos"] - So, let me get this straight. You're looking for a beskar weapon with a crystal attached that will increase your Force regeneration rate if you focus on it? With Force imbuement that would require a dev thread. Without Force imbuement, well, show me what the sub looks like, make the edits, put in the work, and let's see.

 

[Matreya]

Sigh...fair enough. The thread i already posted will be used to complete this. It was going to be a seperate sub but i like this idea a lot. Ill let you know when its finished. @[member="Boolon Murr"]

Edit:
And im going to then keep the sub as is and just put in the work for all three.

 

[Ashin Varanin]

@[member="Lord Daemos"] - Tag me here when you've completed your thread, though I'd suggest making it to a high standard.

 

[Matreya]

@[member="Boolon Murr"] - Im suffering from inactive companions, theres already 20 some ok posts and ten ish lame posts, if i can pop out maybe a thousand odd word post would it be acceptable?

 

[Ashin Varanin]

@[member="Lord Daemos"] - Sounds fine to me.

 

[Matreya]

I am editing an a post that had 300 approximately in the beginning (my most recent that everyone keeps ignoring) so i will post im done.

Plus the other posts as promised.

@[member="Lord Daemos"] - Approved pending secondary. Abuse these and they WILL get revoked immediately.

 

[Lief]

Approved; keep in mind the warning of @[member="Boolon Murr"]

[member="Lord Daemos"] - You're currently using this portion-

Both were chosen and obtained by Daemos himself, upon which time he placed them into the triune effect of creating Force Imbued weaponry. Thanks to these effects, whenever he becomes one with the blades, the amount of energy he can draw into himself at a set speed is altered; similar to a vacuum, he can draw upon the energy used from around himself while in battle. Strictly in battle itself.

-which I'd understood to be referring to a Force-imbued weapon's ability to be a focus for its user's connection to the Force, to drain power from an event-level boss sufficient to give many Masters a seriously bad day, while mentally shielding yourself against it after it pulled a one-hit mind control on a high-level Master. Seeing how you're using this item, I'm absolutely requiring you to remove these lines:

[Matreya]

Wait, I explained that from the beginning and even got a warning about not over doing it. So i worked to get enough to accept it, so instead of warning me about simply editing my posts I have to get rid of the ability that I earned?

According to what you said, with the crystal alone I wouldnt need it but with both the crystal and Force Imbue, I would.

Also, Id like to note that while the boss level beast one hit a non mentalist master, the beast instantly drove Daemos to migraines and nausea, then Spencer was allowed to shrug it off as if it was nothing - so trying to play the adequate specialist is worse then playing the OP "chosen one".

Edit:
Hell, Daemos ended up on his knees and everything. I simply was guessing as Na'Varro himself had mentioned that not being a Mentalist made it harder - that mentalists would have a fighting chance.

Basically I guess the point of the thread in question for every person on the ship that wasnt the "chosen one" to fall unconscious instantly? Gotta love the creative freedom of that one.

Yeah sure, make a weapon. But if you attempt to use it to defend yourself - your done. Wanna play in an RP? Cool, but only if you do exactly as I plan.
