Description


So Saru commissioned Phoenix for some throwing daggers.


T H O U G H T S

Reading Saru's history, I decided to go for a circus theme (hence the diamonds and the unusual shape because I often associate diamond patterns with the circus aha. Also with the fact that when used as a grapple, they can be similar to a trapeze swing (something that Saru also has experience with) when attached to the wrists. It comes into use seeing as Saru can no longer fly due to the absence of wings. I also decided to incorporate the idea of the daggers having two forms, because hybrid weapons are too interesting. (Also apparently Red is one of Saru's favourite colours so...red ribbon haha).
Being the second weapon I've drawn, I am still a bit doubtful---especially when I feel like it is aerodynamically incorrect xD (For those curious, this was Phoenix's first weapon commission).

(The ribbon is made from Paradise's silk thread from the Halloween event: Venom's Web as it is both resilient and light. He also soaked it in fire retardant so it won't catch fire. When the ribbon is pulled, the bracelet will tighten (making it possible to be worn many ways e.g as boot daggers if bracelet is worn around both dagger and shoe). The blade is also quite heavy to ensure that it makes contact first. )

There are two forms of the daggers:
  • Left form - grappling / climbing / hooking / medium range aoe attacks
    Similar to a Kyoketsu-shoge and/or a Rope Dart. Attached to a bracelet on either wrist that tightens once worn. When thrown at things such as branches, with momentum, the blade with wrap around making it a useful grappling hook or climbing rope (with two, it can act similarly to a trapeze swing). When used as a weapon in this form, the blade is able to to swung/thrown (whilst attached) in a 3 metres radius around the wielder.
  • Right form - long range attacks / close range attacks
    Works similar to a Kunai and Throwing Knife.
