I'm patching up Dolma (my first OC and entry in the Second OC contest, FYI) and this weapon needs a ranged mode since he's mostly a backline support fighter and some RWBYing. Any suggestions?

Name: Thyrsus

Wielder: Dolma Cabernet

Maker: Dolma Cabernet

Type: SWLV (Staff With Living Vines)

Short Description:A 5 foot pole intertwined by two, living vines used mostly to focus his semblance and add emergency ammunition for it in case there is nothing else available, but also can double as a quarter-staff in an melee engagement.

Form 1: A five foot pole with two living vines attached

Holstered/Sheathed Appearance: Form 1 strapped obliquely on his back

Usage: Uses mostly as a focus for his semblance; in an emergency, uses the vines on his staff for his semblance. If CQC is needed, he'll use the staff as a quarterstaff.

Planned/Possible Upgrades: A ranged mode of somekind, rifle mode didn't work out, so he wants to try out something else

Notes: Carries a sailor's knife to cut extra growth off vines if he needs to free himself from them. Can also use it for surprise stabs and emergency CQC. Thyrsus comes from the name of Dionysus's staff.
