Flynn's Gears and Armory

Name: Ironwood Runebow
Type: Weapon
Rank: PC
Description: Appearances are deceiving, and this bow is proof of that. Seemingly nothing more then a simple long bow with a mixed Greco-Roman – Gaelic styling; the power of this weapon is in the simplicity. The only visible adornment is a simple cloth wrap at the point of center, where Flynn holds the shaft and line's his shots. For all appearances; a classical bow. Comes with a quiver of 12 Ironwood and steel-head arrows. Upon the quiver itself is a rune that allows for the creation of new arrows when needed.

Spoiler:

Abilities: The material, Ironwood, is an exceedingly rare wood in the contemporary era; out of place and unknown to the world. It is a living wood in that it "bonds" to anyone able to use it. Ironwood trees are nearly sentient; able to think and feel and function with a mental capacity similar to higher mammals (canines, felines, primates, porcine, dolphin/whales, etc); and as such is highly temperamental to work with. Only if the tree chooses the user may they create a weapon from it; and from that point on they become inseparable. The weapon will only work for the original creator, or an appropriate successor; usually a descendant or student of the creator.

Name: Runic Inscriptions
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Along the forward face of long arc exist a series of runes; each inscribed into the wood in such a manner that they are entirely invisible unless activated. These function as a sort of hot-key row; allowing for quick adjustments to his shots at any time.

Name: Rune: Multiply
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Placed on the quiver which contains his arrows; this rune does nothing more then allow Flynn to increase the number of arrows he has at his disposal anytime he sees fit. This allows him a near infinite supply of arrows; so long as at least one of the starting arrows remains in this quiver. He is only able to create copies of any arrow that was fletched naturally; IE, created outside of runes via normal means. Any arrow that is a copy cannot itself by copied. He can create a maximum of 1000 arrows per minute this way; unless used in conjunction with another Archery Skill; at which time the number of arrows created it stated then.

Name: Rune: Wind
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: A very useful rune, and one of Flynn's personal favorites. This rune transfers a copy of itself to the head of a fired arrow; which upon impact released a blast of air outward in all directions. The blast has the force of a small explosion; similar to detonating a stick of TNT. Causes compression and crush injuries, as well as knocking over and back anything not nailed down.

Name: Rune: Explosion
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Similar to Wind; Explosion is another personal favorite. Explosion is as it's name suggests; any arrow tagged with it becomes an armed bomb of significant power. This is more akin to the explosion caused by roughly 50 pounds of military grade plastic explosive of the C4 class.

Name: Rune: Implosion
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: The polar opposite of Explosion; Implosion acts as a miniature black hole: anything within it's AOE is sucked inward towards the rune. It is literally like fighting against a black hole; nothing escapes until the rune fades or is destroyed.

Name: Rune: Shield
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: This rune is somewhat different, and is most commonly used three different ways. When active on the bow, it projects a forward facing shield that Flynn can 'wrap' around himself like a sniper's camo blanket; and functions in a similar manner: suppressing his various energy signatures to the point that he blends into the background in all but the visible spectrum. If applied to an arrow, it functions in a similar way; from the point of impact raises a shield that cannot be broken by anything smaller then a megaton class nuclear explosion. This shield is roughly 6ft square. The third usage is in conjunction with the Implosion Rune. If four Shield Arrows are placed within the AOE of an Implosion Rune; the shield warps to wrap around the effect area in such a way that any explosion within the sphere is amplified by a magnitude of 10 due to the restrictive space condensing the force.

Name: Rune: Bolt
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: A simple enhancement, and the first ever added to the bow. Nothing more then granting the fired arrow an electrical charge. However, eons of practice and refinement have empowered this rune to the point that the charge of the arrows is on par with being struck by a dozen lightning bolts simultaneously.

Name: Rune: Storm
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: A different sort of rune; Storm functions not by effecting the target, but by changing the weather itself. A cluster of five shots is made to the sky itself; the combined power of which is enough to cause a near instant formation of a raging typhoon. Winds scream with the power to uproot small buildings; rains drench and flood the area in seconds; darkness punctuated by only the shatters of lightning dancing in the sky. In this storm, visibility is naught and movement is impossible for all but the strongest. However, the curse of the storm is a blessing for Flynn; in this world his active sonar is fed all the information his mind can handle, allowing him perfect, absolute clarity of the world within the storm.

Name: Rune: Flare
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: The active rune blazes like a small sun; the same light encasing the arrow it tags. A streak of light trails from the arrow in flight, a warning of what is to come. Upon impact, the arrow and the energy surrounding it explode in a maelstrom similar to the formation of a small sun. The instant flare of heat melts and warps anything within a 1 city block radius. The heat spreads almost like a liquid; creating lava trails from the melted debris and earth. These flows can cover an additional half mile before cooling and hardening back into solid rock.

Name: Obsidian Rune Blades
Type: Weapon
Rank: RM/MP/PC
Description: Crafted from shards of naturally formed volcanic obsidian glass; the blades are irregular in shape and jagged edged. Darker then a moonless midnight sky; they reflect back the ambient light in a way that makes them seem to glow softly. Because the shards where formed naturally; there are few expanses of flat planes, however every flat space is adorned with rune inscriptions of some sort. The grips of the blades are made of ironwood and elk leather; the bases of the blades embedded into the ironwood base which was then wrapped with thin wire and covered in leather for a solid grip. Comes in a set of two blades.

Spoiler:

Abilities: The weapon enhancements will only work for the original creator, or an appropriate successor; usually a descendant or student of the creator. If someone other then a proper owner attempts to use these blades; the runes will instantly be sealed and the blades will function as nothing more then basic obsidian weaponry.

Name: Runic Inscriptions
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Each carries a series of matched and individual runes carved into the faces of the blades. The runes can only be activated by a relative or student of the original inscriber; in this case Flynn.

Name: Rune: Strength
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Hidden beneath the ironwood and leather grips; this rune does nothing more then strengthen the blades and protect them from shattering like the glass they are. The rune gives the blades strength and durability equal to the high quality steel knives used by modern day military special forces. The rune also protects the edge of the blades; allowing them to cut without flaking and preserving the beyond razor sharp edge that obsidian blades are famous for.


Name: Rune: Heat
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: This rune causes the blades to super heat without softening; making them so hot that they cause instant second degree burns on contact. The heat of the blades also causes instant cauterization of the wounds which does reduce the bleeding effect. The point of the rune is to make slicing off entire limbs easier; as the heat burns through flesh and bone like it was warm butter. The cauterizing can be used on allies in a pinch while awaiting proper medical treatment; and the heat of the rune makes starting fires and removing obstacles in the terrain easier. (Can burn through rock instantly; is able to slice through most metal after 2nd post.)


Name: Rune: Glass Dust
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: This rune causes the blades to trail a haze of extremely fine, highly pulverized glass dust when moved. It can be difficult to see the cloud of dust; as it is nearly invisible unless a light source hits it just right; which causes the particles to shine and coruscate like tiny diamonds. The dust is an extremely potent irritant to the eyes, mucus membranes, and lungs. 1 post of contact causes eyes and noses to burn, water, and reduces visibility. 2 posts causes eyes and nose to bleed, as well as a hacking cough if the target had inhaled it. By 3 posts the effected's lungs are bleeding and eyes are blinded; rendering them basically helpless. The dust is an extreme irritant and acts like shards of razor sharp glass when in contact with any and everything. The blade wielder is immune via a built in protection of the rune itself.


Name: Rune: Frost
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: The only sign this rune has triggered is a sheen of frost appearing on the blades; and wisps of fog wafting from the blades as they move through the air. The blades have been super-chilled to the temperature of liquid nitrogen; the strength and durability of the blades maintained via the Strength rune. Anything that comes in contact with the blades is instantly frozen; as if dipped into liquid nitrogen; with all that implies. Anything susceptible to cold will be frozen solid; rendered brittle and easy to shatter. Any limb hit will be rendered useless for 3 posts before thawing; however the damage from the freeze can render a dead upon thawing; again dependant on the effected's cold resistance.


Name: Rune: Boomerang
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: A tricky little rune; this one coats the blade with a layer of energy that adjusts the aerodynamics of the weapon to act like an aboriginal hunting boomerang. When thrown; it is as good as a flying club; able to crush bones and shatter skulls upon impact. The weapon flies at a speed of roughly 44.704 meter/second (100 mph) in a wide arc determined by how it is thrown. The weapon does not arc in a way that would bring it back normally; as this is based off hunting boomerangs and not the child's toy.

Name: Rune: Return
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: A simple effect; this rune does nothing more but ensure that the item inscribed with it will ALWAYS return to it's owner/master. This can be via anything but levitating the item and causing it to float to the owner, all the way up to actually teleporting the item to them. The return of the item cannot be stopped by anything short of banishing the item to a dimension with no connection to the one it's owner exists in.

Name: Archer Vambraces
Type: Armor
Rank: RM
Description:

Spoiler:

Abilities: /

Name: Runic Chestplate And Pauldrons
Type: Armor
Rank: MP/PC
Description: Made of hardened leather and padded with soft fur to reduce noise; this armor is extremely light, and extremely durable. Rune enhancements allow this armor to resist heat, cold, and most elements; while also allowing it to move as if it was made of liquid; not hampering Flynn's movement ability in the least.

Spoiler:

Abilities: Non-blade based physical attacks to the armor cause no damage at all; while anything magic is dampened by 50% total effectiveness. Crush injuries are reduced by 75% due to the inner padding, Flynn's naturally dense and damage resistant body, and the runes. Blades, arrows, or other sharp objects find piercing the leather to be extremely difficult; slashing attacks are outright useless. A thin enough blade may be able to puncture the armor with enough power; but it would take strength on par with Demi-Gods to do so due to the leather's natural resistance to piercing and runic augmentations.

Name: Runic Inscriptions
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Hidden on the reverse (inside face) of the armor piece is a series of runes meant to enhance the agility, movement ability, and defensive properties of each individual armor piece.


Name: Rune: Fluid
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Allows any solid object inscribed with it to move and flow like a liquid; without loosing any of it's solid properties. Best used on armors when ease of movement is paramount over total physical defense. Cannot be paired with "Strength" or "Defend".

Name: Rune: Silence
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Dampens and stops all sound normally made by a weapon or piece of armor.

Name: Rune: Suppress
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: Actively hides nearly all energy signatures normally release by the body; with the exception of visual, sound (unless secondary augmentation is made), and telepathic. User's Heat signature is constantly adjusted to create a blend effect with the surrounding atmosphere.



Name: Runic Chausses
Type: Armor
Rank: MP/PC
Description: Basic armor meant to cover and protect his knees and legs; his chausses are simple in design and cover only what is needed; protecting his heels, knee joints, calves, and mid thighs. They do not provide protection for his feet; as he does not wear boots or foot armor of any kind, preferring to let his fur and paw pads do what they do best. His inner thighs and hip joints are left exposed to ensure complete movement range; as his need to contort his body into strange angles to fire shots requires that his hips, elbows, and shoulders be as unencumbered as possible.

Name: Rune: Dampen (Electric)
Type: Rune Enhancement
Description: This rune differentiates itself from 'Suppress" by only effecting outside influences; that is to say, energies or effects that come from outside the armor itself, or it's wearer. In this instance, it is used to prevent damage via electrocution; which given the armor it is place upon is steel, and therefore a conductor of electricity, can be a major problem.
