Intent: A new type of amphistaff, to provide an alternative to the hydrastaff
Development Thread: [Got a good plan for a dev thread]
Model: (Example: E-11 Blaster Rifle. For submissions where a model wouldn't be appropriate, such as a custom walking stick, put 'N/A' for 'Not Applicable'.)
Affiliation: (Example: The E-11 Blaster Rifle was produced for the Galactic Empire and used almost exclusively by Imperial Stormtroopers. Do not put the company unless the product is only for your company's use. Common choices include 'Open market' or the name of a specific faction.)
Modularity: (Can components of this submission be swapped out for other components? Is it especially easy to modify? For most submissions, put 'No'.)
Production: (The scale is Unique, Semi-Unique, Limited, Minor, Mass-Produced. More powerful submissions are more likely to be approved the fewer of them there are. There are no numbers associated with these.)
Material: (What is it made out of? Certain materials are more resistant, or vulnerable, to certain weapons. Example: 'Durasteel, blaster components.')
Classification: (Dagger, Sword, Whip, etc.)
Size: (One-handed, Two-handed, etc.)
Length: (Via Metric System)
Weight: (Via Metric System. Note that most swords are 2-4kg.)
Special Features: (Is it resistant to certain weapons? Is it telescopic? Even if you've discussed your features at length in the Description line of the Base Template, this is a good place to list them.)
Description:
Weaknesses and strengths are retained from a standard hydrastaff/amphistaff and can be found: http://starwarsrp.net/topic/33866-hydrastaff/
Potent Neurotoxin: The Arachnostaffhas a stinger loaded with a complex cocktail of neurotoxins. This broad spectrum of chemicals typically leads to repository failure for more humanoid species within seconds. Humans, Twi'lek, Rodians, Bothans are confirmed to be vulnerable. It has been confirmed non-lethal to Hutts, but still leads to severe pain and breathing difficulties for a few hours.
Sharp: The tip of the stinger is incredibly sharp. The tip of the stinger is just a few atoms across and incredibly strong. The Arachnostaff is much the same as an amphistaff in that it extends a field around itself. This makes the stinger as indestructible as the rest of the body. With enough force applied it can pierce all but the heaviest of armours.
From Wookiepedia: Fully grown amphistaffs were durable and cunning predators. Power glands in the serpent's body could emit electrical impulses that reorganized the creature's semicrystalline cell structure. This field extended a millimeter from the amphistaff's body and created razor-thin edges capable of slashing through prey...The amphistaff's edge—measured in atoms—slashed through flesh with no resistance.
Ornery: The Yuuzhan Vong shapers found that introducing the genetics from Arachnids interfered with the genetic manipulation and breeding that had bound Yuuzhan Vong and their amphistaffs for generations. The first dozen or so attempts
