 - Name: Crimson Thistle



 - Wielder: Dearg O’Neill

 - Maker/Smith: Dearg O’Neill

 - Classification: Spiked Dust Brogit Staff (SDBS)

 - Weapon Derivation: Brogit Staff, Oobleck’s Club

 - Form 1 Design: This weapon takes the form of a traditional Brogit Staff which is a spied Polearm weapon which was used in Scotland (what it looks like is shown on the Weapon Derivation with a few difference. The main difference is the rotating dust carousel which is used to amplify the weapon. The second is that the handle is a little bit shorter than a typical Brogit Staff though the user has thought of making the handle longer. The third are the two triggers on the side of the handle.

 - Form 1 Aesthetics: In terms of colours - it’s main colour scheme is crimson with some greys and light reds. There are small patterns in the middle of the handle.

 - Dust Usage: This weapon utilizes a dust carousel with four different types of dust - fire,ice,wind and electricity. He can rotate the dust carousel in order to pick which one he wants to use. He can utilize this dust in two main weapons. The first is applying dust to the weapon like Weiss’s weapon - this allows the user to amplify his hits with fire,ice,wind and electricity with fire creating a fiery blast when the weapon is hit against the foe, ice freezing the area  that the brogit staff touches and so on. He can also use dust in another way - with a press of a trigger the spike dislodges itself from thr weapon and goes upwards and a blast of fire,ice,wind of electricity will fire out of the we

 apon’s hole depending on what dust is used - this is his main ranged attack.

 - Usage: In terms of using the Brogit staff in combat - the user focuses on it’s good range as well as significant power to his advantage. Often while fighting in combat the user will keep a mid range distance from the enemy and utilize his momentum as well as large swings to bash an enemy grimm or foe into the ground. However, the weapon lacks speed meaning he has to make swings count. He can also utilize dust to amplify his attacks to make them more effective against certain foes. When he is at a mid distance - he will likely fire a blast of fire,ice,wind of electric dust - this is a pretty effective ranged attack but is not the fastest meaning fast enough enemie

 s will be able to dodge the attack and counter attack. Overall this is a pretty effective weapon when it comes to power but lacks in the speed department.

 - Planned/Possible Upgrades: The user wants to extend the handle as well as find a way to deal with faster foes which is this the main weakness of this weapon.

 - Notes: Thistle is a famous Scottish Plant.
