Blademaster’s Arsenal

Ready For War

In an effort to be more tactically flexible, Rhace has been pushed into developing a combat kit that allows him to respond to just about any situation that comes up. Enter the blademaster’s arsenal: a series of equipment that allows Rhace to not only make full use of his heirloom blade but also to enact combat tricks that he would not have otherwise been able to make use of without the assistance of magic. As a non-magical person, Rhace enjoys the fact that he can find ways to fight on equal footing with mages, and this series of combat tricks allows him to do exactly that.

A-Rank Techniques

Name: Requip - Granveil
Rank: A+ Refined
Requip Type: Weapon
Grade: Legendary+
Linked Equipment: Acquisition
Duration: 9
Description:

Granveil is a blade forged many centuries ago; a longsword crafted in a forge long forgotten whose blade was passed down through the Tarrin family. As an heirloom weapon, Rhace has wielded this blade since he came of age; this weapon has been entrusted to him to do with as he sees fit. Its original purpose was in the defence of its lord, to slay his enemies and crush them on the battlefield. This has been lost to time as the era of feudalism has long ended. As its current master, Rhace wields this weapon both as a one-handed and two-handed weapon, its black anodized steel blade adorned with silver and set with an aquamarine gemstone. While this is not in and of itself a magical weapon, its proximity to many magical events over the years and drinking plenty of magical blood has imbued it with magical qualities that now serve a family that has been traditionally non-magical.

Name: Channelled Strength
Rank: B+
Duration: Passive
Description: Granveil grants its bearer as much of its own energy as is feasibly possible in order to push them to their absolute limit. Granveil confers an advanced permanent bonus to strength to its wielder.

Name: Wind Form
Rank: A
Duration: 7
Description: Granveil, unleashing its charged energy, glows aqua before it imbues its wielder with the speed of the wind, with a blade so sharply keen it almost feels as if that it could slice through the particles of the air itself. Rhace is given a full-strength buff to his technique speed for the duration of the ability.

Name: Fire Form
Rank: A
Duration: 7
Description: Granveil, unleashing its charged energy, glows aqua before it imbues its wielder with the burning power of flame, with a blade so ferocious it incinerates all in its path. Rhace is given a full-strength buff to his strength for the duration of the ability.

Name: Blast Blade
Rank: A+
Duration: 9
Description: Raising his sword aloft and channelling its energy as well as his own, Rhace strikes out at multiple targets within the vicinity; all targets successfully hit are cursed with a burn and a [/b]health drain[/b]

Name: Pile Bunker
Rank: A+
Duration: 9
Description: Striking a single target, Rhace uses the blade itself to unleash a devastating pulse of energy on impact; this strike is piercing and, if successful, additionally hurts the target with a burn.

Name: Requip - Holo-Shield
Rank: A+ Refined
Requip Type: Armor
Grade: Legendary+
Linked Equipment: Acquisition
Duration: 9
Description:

The holo-shield is a device given to Rhace by Meliora Vitae to suit his defensive needs; Granven students eschew the use of armour, but it is not unheard of for them to make use of a buckler shield for defence. In this way, the holo-shield is the perfect nod to a number of things in his life: first, the lineage of his swordplay; second, a design inspired by his mentor Lethe, and third, his want to travel light into combat with a shield that can be activated and deactivated at will.

Name: Energy Field
Rank: B+
Duration: 8
Description: Rhace activates the energy buckler and can use it as a defensive tool. This also grants a buff to his technique durability.

Name: Reinforcement
Rank: A
Duration: Passive
Description: Rhace receives a passive buff to his technique durability.

Name: Reinforcement II
Rank: A
Duration: Passive
Description: Rhace receives a further passive buff to his technique durability.

Name: Reflection
Rank: A
Duration: 1
Description: By expending some of the shield’s energy, Rhace can redirect one enemy’s spell or technique back at them.

Name: Shield Charge
Rank: A
Duration: 7
Description: Taking the time before deploying the shield to charge it pays off; overcharging the shield’s capacitors allows Rhace to benefit from a buff to his technique durability.

Name: Requip - Utility Belt
Rank: A
Requip Type: Item
Grade: Legendary+
Linked Equipment: Acquisition
Duration: 7
Description:

When in doubt, lie your way to victory. Or in this case, create a device with sufficient nanotechnology to create everything you need instead of needing to carry it. Enter the utility belt: exactly what it says on the tin, using nanites to create everything that comes out of it, including small random non-organic devices that he might need at any particular time - communications earpieces, tracking beacons, you name it. Even actual items can be digitally reproduced, such as the sword and shield, almost as if it were a bag of holding.

Name: As Light As Air
Rank: B+
Duration: Passive
Description: Free of the fetters of storage and carrying capacity, Rhace receives a passive boost to his movement speed.

Name: Nanite Healing Field
Rank: A
Duration: 7
Description: The utility belt stores a field of nanites that can constantly work at Rhace’s wounds as he operates. This is a heal-over-time effect which adds a buff to his technique healing.

Name: Stun Dart
Rank: A
Duration: 1
Description: Rhace fires a stun dart from a wrist launcher. This dart, if used in combat, can immobilize an opponent; if used out of combat where higher dosages of the toxin used can be applied, it can put an opponent to sleep at a longer duration (with permission).

Name: Stealth Field
Rank: A
Duration: 7
Description: Using a stealth field generator inside the belt, Rhace can turn invisible to physical senses, and magical or technological senses for those of equal rank or less.

Name: Flash Bomb
Rank: A
Duration: 7
Description: Rhace fires a dart from a wrist launcher that explodes similarly to a flashbang on detonation. Those caught in the blast are blinded and hit with a movement speed debuff for the duration.
