First off, a few clarifications. Morning stars are usually not usually attached to a chain or rope. a morning star usually resembles a spiked mace. your Form 2 more closely resembles a Flail.

a few questions. When the weapon goes into form 1, does it look like a mace attached to the gauntlet, or do the parts of the mace move up to reinforce the fists? why does a heay gauntlet need a mace attachment at all, as strong as it is? How long are these cables?

First impressions, pretty good, but I have a couple of misgivings, especially about ranged weaponry, Griffons, and Nevermores. This is a strictly close- to mid-range weapon, and with as heavy as the weapons are, even with Polar Bear genes, the weapons are going to slow him down.

Overall, this is a definite tank weapon, suited for the character as you've described him. The weapon seems to fit the character, which is good, but what bothers me is balancing the character. Make him too strong, he's OP with these weapons. make him too weak to compensate and he can't use the gauntlets at all.

It's tricky to balance, but it looks ok to me overall. Great close-ranged weapon! First, that was a misunderstanding on my part I'll replace morningstar with flail.

It essentially becomes a pair of giant gauntlets with mace heads covering the fists for maximimum brutality. His fist are only lightly armored, by which I mean the kind of coverage provided by medieval gauntlets.

I'd say the cables are at most (the length might be adustable) as long as Gambol Shroud's ribbon.

Eventually the user might become good at firing ice projectiles, but for now Merciless Storm is for smashing, slicing, and stabbing.

I'm concerned about balancing the user, once I make him, but at the start, he won't realize its full potential. I've also limited him to just ice-related Dust types.

I'm glad you like it.
