Prototype build of the gauntlet whips

- Name: Showstopper

- Wielder: Tyson Terrel Sr

- Maker/Smith: Tyson Terrel Sr

- Classification: Electroshock Cable Whip Gauntlets - Weapon Derivation: Iron Man 2 I guess?

- Form 1 Design: A pair of gauntlets each containing a 20’ braided steel whip ending in a spherical weight.

- Form 1 Aesthetics: Showstopper is visually unremarkable; steel gray throughout and worn over insulated elbow-length gloves. The whips are stored in a coil around the forearm to minimize their profile and avoid encumbering the user.

- Dust Usage: Lightning Dust; used for electrifying the whips.

- Usage: Showstopper was designed with two primary uses in mind; grappling and live take-downs. The whips themselves are used to ensnare limbs or disarm opponents; however the weighted ends combined with length make it effective in lethal combat as an impact weapon, akin to a meteor hammer. The addition of Lightning Dust further enhances Tyson’s combat ability; enabling him to shock living enemies unconscious, or momentarily paralyze Grimm for capture. - Planned/Possible Upgrades: TBD - Notes: Tyson Sr is the founder, leader, and ringmaster of the Terrel Traveling Circus; a troupe composed primarily of Huntsmene. Whips are a tool often associated with animal taming acts, and I have modified a set to match both his training as a Huntsmen and the peculiarities of his trade.
