Originally posted by The One Named Olaf Name: Picatrixes, Grimouirs, Tomes. Description: Picatrixes are book type things, their faces metal and their spines heavy with Zero-Point manipulation modules. The inside of the book is much diffrent then a normal book, padded with several layers of small powerbanks, though they do store quite a bit. Inside aswell, there are several spheres, controlled by the Zero-Point and the wearer. There are four in total, one a regular metal ball, another a container/injector, and the other two electrical. These are mostly used for people looking for high damage, however very bulky. Grimouirs are slightly light weight versions of Picatrixes, and instead of globes or spheres, they have a collection of small metal marbles or blades. These can be controlled by several smaller modules, sending a hail at the target. These are used for more lightweights, or harassers. These can also be fitted with crossbow bolts. Can use the electrification from Tomes are the Medium variant, with a variety of blades and spheres. It is mostly used for inflicting poisons or disabling opponents. Abilities: Picatrixes hit hard with blunt or piercing damage. It may be able to overload certian electrical circuits with the electrical spheres, or stun. Tomes are good for seeking weak points in plate metal or sticking in armor to prohibit movement, and injecting poison. Tomes are good all around hitters. Can hit hard. Most editions are protected from EMP. Conditional Abilities (Optional): Batteries last longer in the cold. Works well in space. Limitations: Batteries don't last long. P's are 5 minutes of continued use, G's are 8, and Tomes range from 6-8 minutes. All get +2 in the cold. Shit armor piercing without windup, or proper blades. Electrical orbs draw power quickly, cutting time when charging by 3 minutes. Can't take hits unless further armored. Max range of 30 feet. Lighter Models are weaker to EMP. Conditional Limitations (Optional): None. How does it work: Through the zero-point modules in the spine and the batteries in the pages, it should be self evident. The spheres are quite hard to manipulate without the original "casting" point. Flavor text: Made by ancient Glitch casters, these books tend to deal heavy damage to robots, thus their creation. Attainability: Open. Tags: [Military] Category: Ranged Armaments
