Weapon: Skeleton Key Description: This is a fancy little device known as a skeleton key. It's this nice device that, according to rumor, can open any lock. A little like a Keyblade, that one. It's an unassuming rod with a hole at one end with a string tied to it. It looks a bit like an unassuming keychain. Specialties/Modifications: This is an actual skeleton key. Through a couple of hours of work, Soo-Hyun has engineered a key that gets him in and out of most locked areas with ease, provided they use mechanics, not electricity. Whatever it may be, standard keyhole, pinhole, it's all crackable with this nifty little thing. Unfortunately, it's not so simple that it can be used without knowing how and guessing. This is Soo-Hyun brand engineering, which means that without Manipulating Understanding, aka a knowledge of how the world works, you're out of luck if you want to use this. Unless someone tells you specifically and exactly how. This has many internal moving parts and attachments, things that lock into place, twist, slide out, protrude, and so on, which allow it to change shape to different sized keyholes. Therefore, this 'mundane' item is able to open most mundane locks. Character: Soo-Hyun Martin Edited by Yuki Aisu, May 8 2012, 03:48 PM.

I don't know. I think I'll leave this up to Zaulyl to decide. It seems a bit to "mystical." He specifically states that he doesn't want any lightsabers,vampires, witches, etc, etc. As Soo-Hyun's ability doesn't let him put his ability onto an item I find this kind of far fetched, and even with that, just... mystical XD It is a cool idea though. And once again, I'm leaving this for Zaulyl Just putting in my two cents, and actually saying something so he doesn't just leave this for me to take care of XD

Skeleton keys exist, just not usually to this point. Usually, they're just for one type of lock, but whatever. One thing though, you say it can get you in anywhere. Does the key change size, or is there a mechanical reason why it'll fit anywhere? |

Well, it's not him putting his ability into an item, more that you need the knowledge to manipulate it. I guess technically, Orimi's character could also use this, since she's a technopath and this is technology. It's engineering I tell ye. Btw, Skeleton Keys do exist IRL. It's not a 'mystical device', it's just an improvement on the classic design [or rather, another approach to it], since Skeleton Keys are 100% illegal and this can't be proven to be a skeleton key unless you know how it works in the first place. XD But yeasssss~ Thanks for the comment! EDIT: Zaulyl has good timing. It's designed to be able to adjust to any size by sliding certain parts of the 'key chassis' about. It's not as convenient as a regular skeleton key, but if you know how to pick locks and use this, it'll work. It'll be slower than say, 'auto unlock', but it's definitely a possibility.

Then that's acceptable. Can you include the mechanical description in the application, please? Otherwise, it DOES sound somewhat mystical. |
