Weapon for the third character on Team BSDN. Not sure which name I should use.

Weapon: Rhythmic Thunder or Rhythmic Storm

Name Meaning: Thunder/Storm for the lower tone of the bass guitar (and the lightning dust tuning keys) and rhythmic referencing the musical function.

Maker/Smith: A band of Faunus nomads (Wielded by Hunter Dartmouth)

Type: Vibratory Crossbow Shield Bass (VCSB)

Weapon Derivation: Bass, lyre guitar (something like this but in electric bass form: http://www.harpguitars.net/history/org/org-lyres.htm), shield, crossbow

Design: A large lyre-shaped green bass guitar with aquamarine accents that has casing around the strings on the neck. The neck can bend into three segments to form a handle when going into shield form. When transforming into crossbow form, the portion with the strings rotates, the body opens up into the limbs and a bow string pulls back on the neck. The neck forms into the grip and stock of the crossbow. Spokes that tune the strings hold lightning dust when needed.

Holstered/Inactive Form: An electric bass guitar powered through lightning dust

Form 1: Medium sized shield

Form 2: Crossbow that shoots bolts enhanced by the vibration going off the strings

Dust Capacity: Lightning dust

Usage: Hunter uses his weapon fluently in all its forms and I'd able to change it fluidly as well. For its bass use, it allows him to spread his semblance and it allows him to detect his surroundings. (more on that later) Hunter can also use the lightning dust to strum lightning waves at an opponent. With the shield form, he can tank attacks while using less aura and he can shield push enemies back. And of course with the crossbow form, Hunter can nail targets from a distance, send stunning vibrations through them and sometimes shattering defenses. Outside of battle, he carries her around and plays tunes from his past.

Notes: Hunter carries his bass everywhere through a harness around his torso.
