Weaponized Carbon Pressurization Originally posted by Breezenees Name: Weaponized Carbon Pressurization Description: The actual design varies from it's various uses, but generally are based around a tank containing carbon, a compact pressurization chamber, and barrel with which to launch the resulting projectiles. Mounted inside weapons, machinery, and even prosthetic arms, the WCP is very versatile. Abilities: The WCP technology can be used to either launch solid crystal projectiles, coat objects in crystals, or simply create a stunning display of glitter. How each of these are used is up to the user. The crystals can from in 10 seconds each, with varying time to create shapes, taking longer to make larger objects. Said objects can disassembled, restoring the nanomachines to the storage. Conditional Abilities (Optional): You can make some jewelry really quickly with it, I guess? Limitations: EMPs can cause crystal structures to fall apart. Extreme heat can also cause said structures to shatter. After 3 hours, objects made of the crystals will automatically collapse. When an object collapses, the nanomachines can be recovered, but the carbon must be replaced. Protective gear must be worn when using one of the tools, as the belt press can risk burning the user. Conditional Limitations (Optional): N/A How does it work: Carbon is ejected from the storage unit, which coats specially-made nanomachines that respond to the user's thoughts. The coated nanomachines proceed to be pressurized inside a heated compact belt press in 5 GPa at 1500 °C. This creates microscopic synthetic diamonds, which then the nanomachines stick together to create objects. Said nanomachines are launched out of a barrel of varying types, forming their designated shape either inside the barrel or outside, depending on the user's wishes. Flavor text: Synthetic diamond technology has existed for ages, all the way back to 1879, Human dating. This particular version was perfected by Dr. Pentecost Rigadoon in 3129, in the form of a two-handed tool made for multi-purpose cutting using customizeable diamond blades. Later improvements through the next century would allow arm-mounted and even hand-integrated versions to be made. The primary use was for assistance in construction and other labour-intensive jobs, but the combat potential was soon found in it, being commissioned to create variants of the technology for combat.
