Second ever original weapon Idea! Whooooooo!

Wielder- Lavender Iris

Maker/Smith- Lavender Iris

Name- Clematis

Type- Break-Action Rope Dart (BARD)

Weapon derivation- Rope Dart, Single-Shot Pistol

Description- a long steel spike attached to a long ribbon. The spike can transform into a Single-shot pistol that can be broken in half to be reloaded. The ribbon itself is about 10 feet long, and the pike is about 6 inches long.

Holstered/Inactive form- The Ribbon is looped around itself, forming a sash, which is worn from the user’s shoulder to their opposite waist. The Dart hangs by the user’s waist. The flags around the dart are retracted into the dart.

Form 1- A rope dart with a total of 10 and a half feet of reach.

Form 2- The outside of the base of the spike folds outward and locks into place, forming the muzzle of the gun. The ribbon can impend the user, as it stays out at full length, so it’s generally wrapped around the arm or the handle of the Pistol, which takes time to do.

Dust Capacity- any, but only one canister of Dust can be inserted at a time.

Ammunition- .50 Caliber

Usage- Lavender has practiced with Clematis since starting schooling, and has become an incredibly accomplished user. Lavender can attack from a variety of directions incredibly quickly. It’s not too powerful, as the spike doesn’t weigh too much. Clematis works best from mid-ranges, but Lavender can hold the Pike end for close-up combat, and uses the ribbon for distraction and entangling the opponent’s weapon.

Planned upgrades- Longer, heavier spike, spike transforms into shotgun (not a pistol), Longer ribbon

Transformation Process- Crescent-moon shaped piece of the base of the spike folds outwards on a hinge near the tip. The part that folds up houses the Muzzle, and looks like a crescent moon with the points pointed down.
