I do not have a "hobby" of sorts as I am unable to enjoy things since my raising, yet this seems the right place to adress this. For me there is only my work, and with my work come my weapons. My rune weapon is a claidheamh mòr which The Master had claimed from a Scottish nobleman. During the centuries I have collected many weapons, and have learned to forge them myself. Unfortunately they have significantly lost use over the centuries, and everyone uses firearms now. Do any of you have knowledge about projectileless weapons, either their use or their forging? |

An artificial soul you say? Interesting. Studying it could bring up a lot of valuable insights. |

Well if you'd like dear, I can arrange for you to wake up strapped down, but it would be a to a bed rather than a doomsday device. And a few articles of clothing may be missing. |

People often tried to restrain me one way or another. It always resulted in their deaths. |

Not sure artificial is the word. It was never supposed to end up in a person to begin with... |

I would like to draw your attention to this particular piece:![]() This is not a good weapon. The handle is too large to hold the weapon close to you, the connection between the wooden handle and metal blade is too frail, and by holding it like a scythe does not allow you to put much force behind your swings. |

Well, yeah. I'm assuming most female humans don't like to enter battle dressed in nothing. My mele weapon of choice is 'me'- I can hit things pretty hard, am acidic, and can twist someone apart like it isn't a thang. That, and chainsaws. |

I know absolutely nothing about melee weapons, but even I can tell how silly and impractical something like that would be. It seems like it would be extremely unwieldy and difficult to properly swing, as the handle is too short to use it as a proper spear, but too long to use it as a sword. You couldn't use it as a war scythe either due to the shape of the blade, so you'd be left with trying to use it like a farming scythe, which don't make very good weapons at all. Or at least, I think that would be the case. Perhaps I'm wrong, as I have very little experience with such things. |
