Okay I've changed the design a bit to make it less like Nora's weapon but keeping plenty of the aspects I wanted in the weapon. Also changed the name because I liked Lola better as a name.

Weapon: Lola (the Party Club)

Wielder: Melanie Nochromo

Maker/Smith: Zaffre Corporation (custom made)

Type: Gas Grenade Launching Clubhammer (GGLC)

Weapon Derivation: Bat, club, gas grenade launcher, riot gun, Joker venom, sledgehammer, Kirkhammer

Design: The weapon is designed like a large bat-like club with a monochromatic color scheme. It is mostly white with black accents. The box-shaped rolling "suitcase" that it is strapped to has more the opposite coloration to the club. It has Melanie's symbol designed on the smaller octagonal-shaped sides of the suitcase and it has a round keyhole in the top, about the width of the bat.

Holstered/Inactive Form: A wide tube form attached to what appears to be a rolling suitcase that holds extra ammunition.

Form 1: A large bat-shaped club. The tube extends near the bottom forming a grip for the club. When hitting with it, a cloud of gas can be released on impact.

Form 2: A pump action grenade launcher that launches non-lethal gas grenades. These gas canisters unleash a stupefying gas similar to nitrous oxide AKA laughing gas. It puts those who breathe it in into drowsy, disorienting and euphoric laughing fits. This can make it very difficult to fight effectively. The bat ejects handles and the front opens into a barrel.

Form 3: A large headed sledgehammer. The club is slammed into the suitcase vertically and is locked in. The handle extends out further to form the shaft and the suitcase becomes the head of the hammer, retracting the wheels and handle into its base. Just like in club form, the hammer can release the gas when slammed down.

Dust Capacity: Burn dust when she wants to turn her gas grenades into deadly fireworks.

Usage: Used by Melanie to beat, smack and knock opponents out of the park, even from a distance while using her semblance. While hitting, she can even activate a grenade, releasing a puff of gas out of the impact. When launching her canisters around the field, she's disabling the other strong contenders with her stupefying gas. Specifically she's taking out the most threatening members to the team. The rest of Team BDSN all wear specialized and customized gas masks for this reason, except for herself since she seems to have built a tolerance to her concoction. Sometimes she'll fire the gas grenades as a blunt force shot to disorient enemies. For heavier, wider ranged attacks, Melanie will sheath her club and turn it into its large hammer form. If needed, she'll use burn dust to ignite her gas grenades into powerful fireworks.

Planned/Possible Upgrades: Wishes to add a motor to her suitcase some day so that she can ride it like a rocket car.

Notes: Faunus are more prone to the gas on account of their enhanced senses. Melanie treats her weapon like family, affectionately referring to it as "Lola."
