SPECIAL FEATURES
- The Gravewire's cord is crafted through Sith alchemy, rendering it unnaturally strong and resilient. It resists most forms of damage, while remaining nearly invisible when held taut.
- The garrotte's ends are capped with butterfly blades, to slice cleanly through flesh and bone with ease if asphyxiation doesn't cut it. These tips remain perpetually sharp, ensuring deadly efficiency.
- The garrotte can snake and coil around its prey with fluid precision. It responds to Leven's subtle Force commands, moving on its own once thrown or wrapped around a target, allowing her to entrap her enemies with terrifying speed and efficiency.
- When tightened around limbs or the neck, the Gravewire can completely cut off blood circulation to those areas. This rapidly causes the limbs to go numb and become paralyzed, effectively disabling them. The complete loss of circulation can lead to permanent damage or death if maintained for too long.
Near Indestructibility: The alchemized cord is incredibly durable and highly resistant to damage, making it impervious to most forms of damage, including plasma weapons. This ensures the weapon remains functional in even the most brutal combat conditions.
Phase Shift Mechanism: The ability to phase through physical objects when influenced by the user's Force power gives the garrotte an edge, allowing Leven to strike vulnerable areas without being hindered by armor or barriers. This makes the weapon highly effective against well-protected enemies.
Psychological Torment: The Gravewire has a darkside Force imprint which when activated, will aim to cause victims to experience overwhelming fear, anxiety, and hopelessness while trapped by the garrotte. This mental affliction leaves them more susceptible to interrogation, manipulation, or incapacitation, complementing the weapon's physical lethality. This feature is at its strongest when near the head (neck).
Wraithlike Coiling: The garrotte's ability to move and coil on its own makes it an unpredictable and versatile weapon in Leven's hands, allowing her to snare or incapacitate targets without needing constant physical control.
Circulatory Constriction: The garrotte's ability to cut off blood circulation adds a brutal layer to its effectiveness. It may swiftly disable limbs, rendering opponents unable to fight back and hastening their demise through paralysis, permanent damage, or even death if use is prolonged.
WEAKNESSES
Limited Phase Shift Duration: The phase-shifting ability is extremely brief and requires precise timing to be effective. Overuse or mistiming the shift could leave the weapon temporarily unable to bypass objects, reducing its effectiveness or entrapping it within said objects.
Short Range: The garrotte is a close-quarters weapon by nature, making it ineffective against enemies who fight from a distance or use ranged attacks.
Risk of Self-Entanglement: The garrotte's wraithlike coiling, while powerful, is inherently risky. If not controlled properly, the cord could entangle Leven herself or interfere with her movements during combat.
Psychological Imprint Drawback: The Gravewire's Imprint affects all organic targets, meaning it could unintentionally disturb allies or neutral parties who come into contact with the garrotte, making it dangerous to use in situations with bystanders or companions.
Force Null Fields: Its force dependent properties are unavailable when in the presence of furce nullifiers.
DESCRIPTION
The Gravewire Garrotte is a dark and insidious weapon, crafted by Leven Jeyd through Sith alchemy. It is designed for close-quarters lethality, torture, and psychological domination. The garrotte consists of a sleek, alchemized cord that is nearly invisible when taut, yet nearly impossible to destroy. Its ends are capped with small, butterfly blades.
What makes the Gravewire truly terrifying is its collection of unique properties. Thanks to Sith alchemy, the cord is equipped with a Phase Shift Mechanism, allowing it to briefly pass through solid matter. This ability enables Leven to bypass the defenses of her enemies and strike directly at their most vulnerable points, making the garrotte a nightmare to block or parry.
When tightened around a victim's neck or limbs, the garrotte can completely cut off blood circulation, causing rapid paralysis and rendering entire limbs useless. If sustained for long periods, this lack of circulation can cause irreparable damage or even death, making the Gravewire an exceptionally deadly tool in both combat and torture scenarios. Leven's skill in controlling the Force allows her to imbue the garrotte with a Wraithlike Coiling feature, allowing the cord to move and tighten around her target with minimal physical effort. Once cast, it slithers like a serpent, trapping limbs or necks with precision and terrifying speed.
Once the garrotte wraps around a victim, it's imprint can be activated so it begins to take hold. This imprint, forged during the creation process, induces a crippling sense of fear and despair in those entangled by the weapon. The sensation aims to overwhelm the mind, weakening the target both mentally and physically, leaving them more susceptible to interrogation, manipulation, or submission. This psychological aspect complements the weapon's deadly physical properties, turning it into a tool of torture as much as death.
In Leven's eyes, the Gravewire is more than a weapon—it is a tool of domination and fear, capable of ending lives, breaking wills, and disabling bodies with unmatched efficiency.
