Paladin's Armaments
Magic Name: Paladin's Armaments
Magic Type: Requip (Solitary)
Description: The Paladins are the most renowned warriors of the Pergrande Kingdom and Vincent was born to such a pair. He went back many years after having left his home due to their views on those with magical power and trained in the ways of the Paladin. After being gifted weapons that previously belonged to his family, Vincent created a separate space in the pocket dimension in which his magical items are stored specifically designed for the new weapons. These weapons all have some kind of negative effect on magical beings due to their origins, making them fearsome in Fiore when wielded in skilled hands. These weapons represent the extent of Vincent's remaining control over elemental magic, a memoir of the magic upon which he once relied.
Strengths:
- Particularly powerful against magical entities
- Conventional weaponry makes attacking much more of a quick process as opposed to the comparatively long cast times of his primary magic
- Provides Vincent with a heightened battle senses as well as a stronger than average body
Weaknesses:
- All of the weapons he uses have no real range beyond the tip of their blade, making them ineffective towards flying or far targets
- To non-magical entities are unaffected by the properties of most of the weapons

Description: Most Paladins in Pergrande have three names associated with them. The first is their own name, obviously. The second is the name given to them by the lower ranked members of the military based on their known accomplishments. The third is the name of their preferred weapon. Vincent's mother was no different and passed on her famed blade, the Scarlet Laughter, to her son.

Description: These pair of black daggers are the weakest of the bunch when it comes to the weapons he took with him. Even in Pergrande these daggers are used when their swords break and they have no backups left. A dagger is better than being empty handed, but only just.

Weaknesses:- Especially short range

Description: This long spear is 2m long with 60cm consisting of the blade. It is by far Vincent's longest weapon and due to its size it doesn't suffer any damage penalty, but also doesn't gain any additional damage.

The bolt of lightning deals 60 damage. This ability gets empowered by spell damage rather than strength. The ability travels at 120m/s. The range of this ability is 2m.
