- Kwan Dao:
- Name: Kwan Dao
Rank: Strong
Type: Naginata
Description: A long (2 meters long; if split into a chain, it reaches 10 meters) kwan dao with a red staff, sturdy and with a 70 cm long blade attached to the edge. It’s also equipped with an iron dagger-like stone on the other edge, along with bandage around the middle of the staff. A few rings of gold are attached as well, between them a string with a fabric ball from his childhood as he made it to distinguish his from others. A special setting is that it can split up to five staffs, one wielding the blade and another wielding the metal dagger, all attached by a chain that makes it capable of being used like a chain weapon (such as a morning star, or a kusarigama).
Strengths:
1. It’s a long weapon, and it’s length can be favored in many situations.
2. It’s very good to cooperate with Shen’s magic as he can easily channel lightning power through the weapon.
Weaknesses:
1. The opponent can easily avoid the sharp blade by getting close to Shen; the weapon might be long, but it’s difficult to utilize at close quarters.
2. If affected by Shen’s magic, this weapon suffers more damage from Earth/Wind spells (50% more).
3. If not affected by Shen’s magic, the blade can easily be consumed by slayers that utilize metal magic.
Abilities:- B.U.R.S.T:
Name: B.U.R.S.T (Bladed Uitlization Realizing Strained Time)
Rank: Character’s Rank (caps at C)
Duration: 5 posts
Cooldown: 6 posts
Description: A setting within the weapon that utilizes a very special outcome that only the Dao family knows of. When the situation/user calls for it (or when the situation/time gets tensed, hence 'strained' in the name), the Kwan Dao evolves into a spiked, bigger and even more bloodthirsty version; the metal dagger turns into an iron club with spikes all over, along with three longer spikes on the end. The staff turns tougher than iron itself, and the main blade grows four times bigger and with even more details on. In this form, the weapon deals the user’s rank in damage, as well as boosting the user’s speed by a certain amount:
D-Rank: Speed boost by 25% --- B-Rank: Speed boost by 50%
Strengths:
1. It’s way more offensive in this form.
Weaknesses:
1. Although it makes the user faster, it’s also way easier to get hit by spells. As of that, it can actually break quicker in this form than in the original.
2. It receives double affection from opponent’s Earth/Wind spells, and if having lightning channeled through, it still receives 50% more damage from those kinds of spells.
- Dance of 1000 Slashes:
Name: Dance of 1000 Slashes
Rank: Character’s Rank (scales up to B)
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 3 posts
Description: Having the blade before him, Shen launches out a fierce volley of stabs with his Kwan Dao. It’s done with an unreal precision that can reach max 10 meters before him (increases by additional 10 meters in every rank-up, until reaching B-rank), due to the air itself getting pushed back by the force of his Kwan Dao dance.
Strengths:
1. It’s a swift and wild way to launch out quick attacks towards an opponent.
Weaknesses:
1. It can only be used if the opponent is in front of him; it’s not AoE, so it’s easy to make your dodge from this attack.
2. The user can have trouble using this if the opponent is at close quarters. If closer than the blade itself, the user might get hit and cancel his attack.
- Bâo-Lèi:
- Name: Bâo-Lèi (Treasure Ray)
Rank: Legendary
Type: Silver Sword
Description: It’s an ornamented sword with a 1 meter long blade (collapsible), along with a purple tassel at the edge of the hilt. It’s another of the Dao family’s countless products of weapons, along with the Kwan Dao and Bushing Yúchi.
Strengths:
1. It’s very swift and easier to parry, swing and overall use than the Kwan Dao.
2. Just like his other weapons, this is also very good at cooperating with his magic.
Weaknesses:
1. It’s not as long as a Kwan Dao, so distance is useful to avoid this sharp blade.
2. It’s fragile against Earth Magic, which deals 25% more damage to it due to its connection to the precious metal.
3. It’s not iron, but it’s definitely a metal; still edible for Metal slayers.
Abilities:- S.W.O.R.D:
Name: S. W. O. R. D (Summoning Wide Order of Raging Daggers)
Rank: Character’s Rank (scales up to A)
Duration: 4 posts
Cooldown: 5 posts
Description: A wide area around Shen is at risk as he launches the sword into the ground. In an instant, a burst of blades erupts from the ground and stabs anything nearby in a certain area. The weapons that are summoned may be wielded and used by the rules; they deal user-ranked damage, are max 1 meter long and require user-ranked damage (or duration time to be used) to be destroyed.
D-Rank: 10 meters radius --- C-Rank: 25 meters radius --- B-Rank: 50 meters radius
Strengths:
1. It's a very versatile technique that can easily offend/support people in a fight.
2. It's way faster to summon more of Shen's weapons this way, rather than wielding them all at once.
Weaknesses:
1. The blades can suffice as very delicious to the metal slayers; it’s practically spawning more food for them.
2. The duration can be cancelled if the attack is repelled by earth spells that reaches its rank in power.
3. The opponents (and allies as well) can also take use of the weapons that are spread in the area. It’s not just for the user.
- Treasure Ray Slash:
Name: Treasure Ray Slash
Rank: Character’s Rank (scales up to C)
Duration: 2 posts (two slashes, one per post)
Cooldown: 3 posts
Description: Shen’s magic is directly channeled through the blade, thus unlocking this skill; he cuts through the air, creating slashes of pure currents running through the thin air and striking whatever is targeted in a certain distance. Depending on rank, it increases in range and size, as well as speed:
D-Rank: Size = 5x5 meters max --- Range = 10 meters --- Speed: 10 m/s
C-Rank: Size = 15x15 meters max --- Range = 25 meters --- Speed: 20 m/s
Strengths:
1. It’s very quick and useful to launch out almost instantly during a tense battle.
Weaknesses:
1. It’s halved in power against Earth/Wind spells. I wonder why..?
2. The sizes of the spell has a secret; the actual area where the spell deals full damage is within a thickness of 2 meters (meaning that the full-damaging spell is 5x2 meters as D-Rank etc.). That means that if you manage to dodge a slash right before it hits you, and if you’re still in the ‘size’ area, then the spell’s power is only 75% as powerful against you. So you wouldn’t really have dodged it, you would just avoid some damage from it.
- Twin Leather Gloves:
Name: Twin Leather Gloves
Rank: Weak
Type: Gloves
Description: This pair of gloves are one of the lesser products of the Dao family's smith business in Ca-Elum. It's specially designed for Shen, but due to a personal wish from himself, they didn't focus on the sturdiness of this melee object.
Strengths:
1. It's a very fast way of dealing more damage, by using your own hands (as in, you don't have to unsheath anything).
2. It can also be very useful together with Shen's magic.
Weaknesses:
1. It's not very sturdy, and far from the other weapons, so it breaks easily.
2. It takes double damage from Fire Magic.
3. Due to being mostly of Leather, it doesn't hurt as much as his other weapons.
