Alright, I have Aurum's weapons ready. The first two are pretty boring, really, but the third one came out alright. Please give suggestions and opinions, especially on the third.


 * Name: Faithkeeper
 * Wielder: Aurum Segen
 * Maker/Smith: Aurum Segen
 * Type: Bastard Sword
 * Weapon Derivation: It’s a plain bastard sword.
 * Form 1: A plain blade a bit shorter than a longsword with a cruciform crossguard and slightly longer hilt for possible two-handed use.  The hilt is wrapped in black leather, and the crossguard inlaid with gold spirals.
 * Holstered/Sheathed Appearance: Hangs in a sheath on his right hip.
 * Features/Capabilities: Can be used for parrying, Aura channeling, poking things, and cutting things – and not much else.
 * Usage: Mainly parry-and-riposte.  Wielded in Aurum’s left hand.
 * Planned/Possible Upgrades: Script may eventually be chiseled or forged into the blade’s sides, but that’s about all.  It’s a plain sword.
 * Notes: Faithkeeper got its name from Aurum’s determination to keep others’ faith in him alive, and after the Faith he follows.


 * Name: Fatebreaker (Mk I)
 * Wielder: Aurum Segen
 * Maker/Smith: Smith and Wesson, until we know some major canon weapon making companies.
 * Type: Hand-Canon
 * Weapon Derivation: S&W Model 500, a .500 magnum revolver.
 * Form 1: Large revolver with 6-round magazine, with gold spirals inlaid on the handgrip, receiver, and barrel.
 * Holstered/Sheathed Appearance: Holstered at the small of Aurum’s back on a belt that holds spare rounds.
 * Usage: Mainly used to parry attacks, finish enemies, or to draw enemy attention (read: agro/hate).  Wielded in Aurum’s right hand.
 * Features/Capabilities: Useful at any range but very long.  Capable of using Dust-augmented rounds.
 * Planned/Possible Upgrades: Added a compensator on Ash’s advice.
 * Notes: Name based off of Aurum’s belief that Fate does not exist.


 * Name: Fatebreaker Mk II
 * Wielder: Aurum Segen
 * Maker/Smith: Ash Westwind and Ruby Rose
 * Type: Revolving-Ballistics Heater Shield, or RBHS.  Alternately, Ballistic Buckler.
 * Weapon Derivation: The arm-shield thingies worn by several characters in Fire Emblem: Awakening, plus “It’s also a gun!”
 * Form 1: Guard-Enforced Revolver.  That is, a hand-cannon with a disc guarding the outer right side, to protect the hand holding it.  Steel with gold designs; especially Aurum’s symbol on the disc.
 * Form 2: Ballistic Heater Shield.  Upon applying pressure to a certain button, metal plates expand out from the disc to form a heater shield with the point at Aurum’s elbow, with bands that slide out to hold it in place.  The tip of the revolver’s barrel barely shows beyond the top of the shield.  Aurum’s symbol is visible in the shield’s center.
 * Holstered/Sheathed Appearance: Rests at the small of Aurum’s back, the disk hanging protruding outside the holster.
 * Features/Capabilities: Useful at any range shorter than long.  Capable of using dust rounds, and of withstanding blows of great strength, including high-power rifle shots.
 * Usage: Mainly used to parry/block attacks, finish enemies at range, or to draw enemy attention (read: agro/hate generator).  Wielded in Aurum’s right hand.
 * Planned/Possible Upgrades: Adjustments to fit better; eventual changes to increase magazine size (up to 7) and range.
 * Notes: (Slight spoilers for my plot?) Forged as a joint project for a get-well gift by Ruby Rose and Ash Westwind after Aurum’s Fatebreaker (Mk I) had its barrel shattered.
