I don’t know I’m bored. Unlike my previous 2 suggestions, almost no yapping in this one. Yeah I just wanna make an idea for a sunken weapon really, that’s basically it. I could go the lazier route and just go “oh yeah this suggestion is just the Sunken Champion set” but no, I’d prefer to make something original. I’m sure Vetex plans on adding Champion at some point in the future regardless. Anyway.
I’m gonna call this the Sunken Oni set. It’d be, design-wise, based on onis from Japanese mythology. I like to think that according to lore, there was simply a group of cult-like people (similar to Greenwish, or perhaps a branch, but I don’t want to mess with Vetex’s lore) who, at some point, died out alongside whatever they worshipped, and all that’s left is their arcanium attire which had sunk to the sea.
Instead of a normal helmet, there’d be a mask, alongside what would be described as robes layered with arcanium chainmail. This way, it still serves defensive properties while also looking robe-like, because personally I wouldn’t want to do any form of daily routine nor ritual in a regular suit or armor.
As for the weapon, I was thinking of either a dagger (likely daggers often used during sacrifical rituals to gods) or a club (generally the weapon used by Oni) I’ll just make ideas for both because I’m bored.
The dagger would be red in design, with an orange blood-groove and what look like flames extending off the hilt. It would, of course, apply soaked (maybe make it purple so people don’t think of burning when they see it, but still technically applying the red.)
As for the club, it would probably be spiked, with arcanium chips coming out, making it look similar to a kanabo. This would also obviously apply soaked, and the chips would likely be red/purple in color.
Might as well make their moves as well since Sunken Weapons always replace one.
For the dagger, I’m gonna replace Dagger Throw, and give it Wave Expel. Doing this would swing the weapon, creating a fast moving, large projectile, similar to Flying Slash, alongside two smaller ones alongside it (similar to Mountain Gale). These slashes would be red/purple in color, like how Maria and Kai’s weapons have their own associated colors as well.
For the club/kanabo, I’m going to get rid of Brutal Rush, and replace it with Ocean’s Grasp. In this grab move, you dash up to your opponent, grab them by the throat before bashing them in the head with your club multiple times. You then toss them into the ground and throw your club after them, causing major knockback and probably always sending them straight down. Basically Rushdown with a Sledgehammer finisher I suppose.
sorry i yapped more than i inticipated okay bye qol/scenery suggestions some more at some point i like making those and people like them too k bye
