Special Features

Strengths
  • Enchanted Tempering: Made from alchemized metals, these weapons are tough and will more likely shrug off attempts at kinetic damage and are able to withstand blaster bolts or lightsaber hits. They have been described as having a fortitude similar to that of beskar.
  • Conduits of Power: The javelins were force imbued to respond to their wielder, Lesaj Ophrys, and to act as conduits of the Green Witch's power. Lesaj can pour the Force into her weapons to a variety of effects. Most notably, the Javelins can home in on a determined target that they will seek out, travel vast distances at incredibly high speeds, and impale through most materials with deadly ease, even piercing through obstacles and continuing their way towards their final target. These qualities are directly tied to how much power the Sylphe passes on to the javelins before a throw.
  • The Witch's Wrath: Their second imbuement attuned them to their wielder's power, to serve her preference for long ranged combat. They are able to drench themselves in her powers and carry them vast distances - well outside of the area Lesaj would be able to influence herself without assistance. Upon first impaling a target, usually the ground itself when this feature is being used, the javelins will release the force energy stored. They will then affect the area around them (normally around 10m radius, can be reduced or expanded depending on the expended energy), their effect varying depending on how they were imbued. A powerful elementalist, her javelins will usually unleash fiery explosions, icy hales, crushing winds, or small earthquakes. However, they have also been known to create healing bubbles meant to aid allies. In theory, it is believed that the javelins could be conduits of any altering ability that the Green Witch can employ.
  • The Master's Call: The final imbuement of the javelins, through an application of Art of the Small and permanently tying part of her essence to them, Lesaj is able to vanish her javelins into nothingness and conjure them back into their complete physical form. Most commonly, she will use this power to retrieve her javelin's back to her side after having thrown them.

Weaknesses
  • Gateways: When using her javelins to affect distant areas, these act as the connector between Lesaj's influence and the area they have affected. Upon piercing the place where they were aimed, the javelins will embed themselves in their place and become attached to it - but if someone manages to remove them or if the Sylphe de-conjures them (to retrieve them, for example), the connection will be lost and their influence will be stopped immediately.
  • The Price of Power: In the end, the javelin's are nothing other than a tool that enables Lesaj to apply her own power over vast distances. Each time she pours her power into the javelins, she is expending her own energy - just as she would if she were making use of the Force in a more conventional way. The javelins will only be as strong as the amount of power she passes on to them before putting them to use, and they will only continue to affect a target area as long as Lesaj has the energy to maintain that effect. If the Sylphe were to run out of energy, she wouldn't even be able to summon the javelins back to her. Because of this, their powers, specially those affecting an area, must be used carefully and consciously - lest Lesaj render herself exhausted and defenseless.
  • Scourge of the Force: A majority of the weapons' power is dependent on their connection to the Force and Lesaj's own. Should the Green Witch be rendered unable to use her powers through any means, or if the javelins were thrown into a force-null area, all their force imbued faculties would be rendered useless. The only feature that would remain is their alchemized resilience. If the javelins were vanished through Art of the Small, and Lesaj's use of the force was impeded, she would not be able to conjure them to use as regular weapons until her powers are available once more.
  • Bound to the Soul: Creating extensions of her own power was not done easily. In order to achieve the desired results, Lesaj had to relinquish part of her very essence to the javelins - bounding them to her and her pull on the Force. If the weapons were to be destroyed, the Sylphe-Rattataki would take immense damage as well. This has never happened before, and therefore Lesaj herself is unsure of what fate would await her should it come to pass. She assumes the worst.

Description

Born on Gargolyn IV, Lesaj Ophrys was raised by sect of force users native to and secluded in the garden planet. From them she learned the ways of the Force, and she saw her power grow throughout the years - her ambition blossoming alongside it and birthing her thirst for adventure. As was customary for all those of her people who decided to leave their realm behind, Lesaj would have to go through the Trials that would earn her her freedom. The last one of them was the creation of her personal weapons.

A hunter and a warrior at heart, the Sylphe-Rattaki designed the weapons that would allow her to rain down her curse upon her enemies or fell mighty beasts from a distance - a conduit of her power forever bound to herself. It would take her weeks to finish the alchemical preparation of her materials. Months to finish the spells and weave the Force into the javelins. And years to pour the most pure form of her power into them until they were tied to her very presence as an extension of her being. These were her sacred tools for war.

Quite the unconventional use of the Ranged Weapon Template you've got here, but not in a bad way. The Ammunition Capacity should technically be "Extremely Small", as per the template, but there's nothing else wrong with the submission and None's more intuitive, so I won't raise a fuss about it.

Approved.

P.S. Please do keep making lovely, flavourful submissions. They're always a treat to read.
