Weapons, Rings, Box Weapons, and Gears

[Voltage]

This section is dedicated to explaining each one of these items


First, lets start with the Hierarchy of how battles will normally flow

Weapons w/o Rings < Weapons w/ Rings
Weapons w/ Rings < Weapons + Normal Box Weapon
Weapons + Normal Box Weapon < Forma Box Weapon Fused with Weapon/Box of Carnage
Foma Box Weapon Fused with Weapon/Box of Carnage < Gear

Also remember, you need a certain level of flame purity in order to activate some of these

Box of Carnage/Forma Box - B Class or higher
Gear - S Class or higher

Remember, your gear was once your ring, so I’d get an S class ring before turning it into a gear

I think it is important for everyone to realize, Gear isn't coming for a loooooong time, so don't get your hopes up there kiddo : D

But this is generally how things work when an RPer's skill is taken out of the equation, if you can make it work, go ahead and try to win, it shouldn't be easy but you could!

So, lets go through the actual things one by one

Weapons

Weapons are the first items you shall receive, whatever they are you will get to choose. If you want something that isn't particularly easy to find, PM a mod and we will RP it out for you. A weapon can be anything at all! There have been people who have used Billiard Balls, Cards, Handcuffs, anything you can think have please indulge it! We want as much variety as possible that much is true.

Weapons we would suggest do not change UNLESS you have received a flame and your current weapon will not work and you have something else in mind that now works due to the fact you have a flame now!

There are some more common weapons than others, but remember you are not allowed to utilize a weapons flame powers without a ring. Now, also keep in mind that once you get flame powers for your weapon, you get 2 as in TWO free abilities that come with it. We suggest you make them broad so you have more freedom! Because even one "ability" can be split into many attacks.

Like Ryohei Sasagawa has INCREASED STRENGTH, and with it has learned MAXIMUM CANNON and MAXIMUM IMPACT. Keeping small details like this in mind will make your experience much easier for you.

So remember two free attacks with the flames, after that there is a price to pay, but don't worry, any "extra" purchases will transfer over to the next form you take.


Rings

Rings are what make everything for you, they are there until the end. You use them to manifest flames, and they are used to make gear. Remember everyone, these are not toys so don't treat them as such!

Rings have every element under the sun (not literally but you get the expression) so there is always a ring for you!

Here are the class of rings, meaning some will last longer and not break after one use, they also allow anyone to create flames of a certain size and concentration depending on the ring's class.

E, Weakest class
D, Second Weakest
C, Third weakest
B, Third strongest
A, Second Strongest
S, Strongest Class

These classes are able to tell you how pure your flames can be, if your flame is too pure for the ring, it'll only last a few uses, and you will be refunded a ring of a high class for half the price of the first ring. We suggest just waiting until you can have a ring that will work indefinitely with your purity until it rises past that point, then you can sell that ring for 75% of what you paid for it and use that money to go towards the next level of ring (it's better than having to pay half price for the next one under it)

These rings manifest flames when you have resolve, your resolve is just the thing that makes you want to fight. It could be to protect people, to get closer to someone, or just straight up that you wont accept being beat. The more pure your resolve is (meaning the more you are dedicated to it) the more pure the flame will become.

(Everyone one should know, we base purity off of the uniqueness of your character, meaning the more unique your character is, the higher purity it will have) Speaking of purity, lets go through that now

--E Class, you can handle E class and anything above indefinitely, even if your flames do suck
--D Class, you will break an E ring after three threads with it, and you wont have too great of flames
--C Class, the average class, you will last two threads with an E rings, three threads with D, and infinitely with any above, your flames are alright I guess
--B Class, the slightly above average class, you will break an E ring after one thread, two threads with D and three with C, your flames are better than most, be proud.
--A Class, your flames are rocken! You can handle two uses of an E ring (for putting flame on your weapon or box opening) one thread with a D ring, two threads with a C, three with a B and indefinitely after that
--S Class, your flames are superior, complete purity, E class rings will only last one usage, D class three usages, C class one thread, two thread with B and three with A. S class rings will allow you to use the single most powerful flames.

It is also good for everyone here to remember that using a ring of higher purity will make your flame purify faster. For example if you have an E class purity and are using an S class ring, you'll get to the D class 10 times quicker than if you used an E ring. Even going up one level makes it much easier on you.

Strange Black Rings - These rings are sold often on the market, they have all the same classes, but people say these are all made from the same materials that the vindice uses for special rings they have. They say the effects work differently for "humans". Vindice is furious they are being sold but if you look hard enough, you can find one. Anyone can wield and utilize this ring if they buy the ability to have a second ring flame. Though this is not a flame, it has effects on flames, box weapons, forma's and gear that alter everything for the user.


Box Weapons

Box weapons are little boxes that fit in the palm of your hand, but each one releases something different. These boxes require flame to be put into them that then release the creature, creatures, or objects inside. There are many different kinds and you actually get to design your own when you make one! There are three different kinds of them though

Equipment Boxes - These are used when you want to utilize some large equipment that is too heavy to carry. This allows the person in question to keep powerful equipment inside the box. This is not uncommon but many people do not particularly prefer to use it.

Object Boxes - These are boxes that are used to seal items that one would use not in battle, but for other purposes. Maybe a sun flame object that can heal someone, Mammon Chain's are popular to be held in these. Also large objects are good to hold in here as well as access flame you want to save for another day. (these cannot be used to absorb flame)

Biological Boxes - The most common ones, these are animals that the user can use as a sidekick. They have their own powers, what these powers are is unknown until you open the box but they will always have to do with the flame in question. When you make one you have to make an ability that makes sense, otherwise it will not be accepted.

S-Class Boxes - Forma's/Carnage
This is a special part where the S-Class Box Weapons shall be explained, they require a lot of attention, because the process is very different

There are two kinds of boxes that fall under S Class

Carnage Boxes - These are boxes implanted into a person's body that release a form that gives them a lot of power. They are normally implanted where the heart should be but it doesn't matter really. These are fused with animals, any animal at all, even extinct ones. This allows the individuals to fuse with an animal and become a chimera. This chimera form allows them a lot more power and they can use their physical bodies to manifest flames. When combined with Vindice Flames, they become more like berserkers as well. This allows the person not to fuse with their weapon and possible still fight with it, but also remember that you might lose control of your humanity and go into primal instincts. Everyone must be careful because it is easy to lose control quickly when your just starting or in times of serious injury.

Forma Boxes - A Forma allows your weapon to fuse with your box weapons, so basically your box weapon(s) will just jump into another box, and you will fuse them into one new weapon. This is as powerful as a box of carnage and can do just as much damage. Remember a forma is very powerful, even bosses have trouble controlling a forma for awhile so it will take a lot of practice to even gain control over your forma and be able to use it in synch with the souls of your box weapons.


Gears

This is the part about gears. For those who only watch the anime you have no idea what I’m talking about, for everyone else... good job! You know what these are and how awesome these are, so good luck trying to get them... they're really damn expensive.

Gears are items that come in simple accessories. They could come in a bracelet, bangle, hairpin, ring, anything really, but the important part is that they need to be worn, and not like a weapon of any kind. These are the most powerful and work perfectly with their respective characters. The man who makes them will only use S Class Rings to make them, anything less would be a waste of time so start saving now (though you have to go through all the other stages before you can get to use Gear)

Gears turn into your perfect weapon, it will make something that you can utilize in battle and also will use up a lot of your flames in order to keep it in top performance. These are very hard to use and only someone with S class purity could use them, so without it you will not be allowed to get one.

SOMETHING TO CONSIDER - Your gear in RoV is different than the ones in the anime in the fact that you didn't lose your Forma Box or Box of Carnage when you got it. Therefore! These rules are being implemented in order for you to work with them

Forma Box's are combind with your gear upon activation of the gear, so you'll have to give it up in order to use your gear. Your gear is instantly known as a LEVEL 2 GEAR. These are stronger than level 1... obviously.

Box's of Carnage are seperated from the Gear. So, if you activate the gear without activating the box of carnage first, you only have a LEVEL 1 Gear, this is weaker than level 2, but if you activate thebox of carnage, you become stronger bringing up your old gear's level to 2. You are also able to use the abilities of your Box of Carnage at regular box of carnage level, whereas the Forma Box is completely absorbed and no old powers can be retrieved.
