3D Version

- Name: Teinord

- Wielder: Nathier Dearg

- Maker/Smith:Nathier Dearg

- Classification: Dust Flame Power Jack (DFPR)

- Weapon Derivation: Team Fortress 2’s Power Jack, Team Fortress 2’s Dragon’s Fury

- Form 1 Design: The weapon takes the form similar to TF2’s Power Jack with the first half of the hilt being square shaped with a more cylindrical hilt for the second half. The Actually head part of the weapon is larger than a usual powerjack and it also has added features such as telescoped handle and lever on the top and two telescoped cylinders on the bottom as well as the trigger that allows the user to apply dust to the head. The bottom of the Powerjack is also different with the end looking like a flamethrower.

- Form 1 Aesthetics: Due to the whole fire based weapon it uses different types of reds as well as black. The large sides of the weapon have a square which is slightly inspired by tartan patterns as well as a poppie in the middle - the poppie often represents war or paying tribute to the fallen which is fitting since the user is an Alesian Specialist. On the smaller side is a thistle which is the symbol of the user’s family. There are also circular and square patterns on the weapon.

- Form 2: The Form takes the form of a Flamethrower similar to Dragon’s Fury from Team Fortress 2. The hilt of the weapon gets slightly shorter as well as the head of the weapon decreasing in length and the cylinders at the bottom of the head extend allowing the user to place his hand there in order to stable it. This allows him to fire it as well as the two handles on the top. Allowing the user to place his second hand on the handle so he can pull the handle bellow upwards  in order to fire it.

- Form 2 Aesthetics: In terms of aesthetics not much changes expect for the handle portions of the weapon being extended. The bottom cylinders have their own pattern on them

- Dust Usage: This weapon exclusively uses Fire Dust which is stored in the head of the weapon which can open up allowing him to insert more dust into it. In the Power Jack Mode - with a press of a trigger he can apply fire dust to the head of the weapon giving it a fiery effect allowing the user to hit hard and burn anything that comes into contact with it. The Fire Dust is also used as the ammo for the Flamethrower so if it runs out then the user can’t use the flamethrower.

- Usage: 

Power Jack Mode - In Power Jack Mode it is generally used as a two handed weapon in order to allow it to swing effectively as it can be too heavily to hold with one hand. It is generally used as a bashing weapon - hitting foes with great force. As such the user relies more on power then speed while he is fighting. The Power Jack has also been designed so it can crack through armor so it is extremely useful for hitting armored grimm. The Power Jack Mode can also use fire dust to amplify the attacks used by the weapon - for example if he bashes the weapon on the ground it will create a line of fire heading towards an enemy. Though the one major downside in using Fire Dust is that it drains quickly so the user needs to be careful in order to make sure he doesn’t run out of fire dust since it is also used as flamethrower ammo.

Flamethrower Mode - This is the ranged attack of the weapon - like the Dragon’s Fury it does not fire out a stream of fire - rather it fires a short/mid ranged blast of fire that can set any Grimm on fire. Unlike most flamethrowers it is useful for both short and mid range but if you fire the weapon from a considerable distance - the fire will most likely go out before it has a chance to hit the enemy target. It also drains fire dust considerably so it needs to be used conservatively as running in and streaming fire is not the best idea.Overall these two forms compliment themselves well and allow the user to fight effectively at short/mid range but the user may find it difficult to fight in long range.  

- Planned/Possible Upgrades: The user wants to find out an effective method for storing more fire dust in the weapon.

- Notes: Nathier is the first half of the Scottish Gaelic Word for Dragon. Dearg is the Scottish Gaelic Word for Red. Tienord is the combination of the Scottish Gaelic words for Hammer and Fire.
