Weaponry


Here in OPBNW, every weapon that is used for any given character is categorized into a rank. Reason is to set a balance to prevent players from registering weapons of a high caliber for RPCs that are verily beginning their adventure at sea. For price information on weapon upgrades or weapon purchases of any given rank just read the Upgrading Information topic.

Weapon Rank
  • Ultimate: Ultimate ranked weapons are the strongest weapons in the One Piece World. Weapons on this level are either are deadly due to some unique ability or possess a devil fruit ability. Set the weapon below as an example:

Ultimate Weapon Example
 
Funk Freed

Being a sword that has "ate" the Zoan-class Devil Fruit, Zou Zou no Mi, Funk Freed can transform into a elephant-sword hybrid and a full elephant at Spandam's command. The Devil Fruit has also granted Funk Freed a life and mind of his own.

Funk Freed can transform into his various forms to adapt fighting the opponent. He can become as heavy as an elephant, all the while maintaining the malleability of a sword.

  • Dangerous: Dangerous ranked weapons are weapons that are much stronger than Strong weapons. Weapons on this level usually possess a unique ability or either reign in terms of power. Set the weapon below as an example:

Dangerous Weapon Example
 
Jakotsutou [Snake Bone]

The Jakotsutou is a snake-like sword that can tracts and retracts similar to that of a snake's movement when going for a strike. The Jakotsutou is made up of at least 15 chain linked blades held together by special pins which allows the sword to have snake-like movement. The sword can wipe out a unit of soldiers and has great precision.

  • Strong: Strong ranked weapons are weapons that are much stronger than Proficient weapons. Weapons on this level are enhanced in a unique particular way. Set the weapon below as an example:

Strong Weapon Example
 
Enshou [延焼, Spread of Fire]

The Enshou its self-sharpening serrated edge flaked away in a regular pattern as it was used and it had become soaked in the flesh and body fat of the victims in which previous owners had killed over the years. As a result the owner is able to execute fire-oriented techniques using the oils as fuel. However, due to its serrated edge, the blade does not cut very deeply, allowing the owner's opponent to feel the pain of both slashing and burning.

  • Proficient: Proficient ranked weapons are a step up from Regular. Weapons on this level don't have incredible abilities, but they're of good quality and powerful. See the weapon below as an example:

Proficient Weapon Example
 
Masters Blade [主人,Masutāburēdo]

This blade was made by a master blade smith using the finest steel. It possesses seven folds, making it a sturdy weapon. It has no special powers, for it is simply a sword above regular swords in quality.

  • Regular: Regular ranked weapons are regular weapons such as a katana, flintlock (rifle, handgun), tonfa, tessen, and basically any weapon that is not out of the ordinary.





Character Creation
All characters start with 10,000,000 beli which may either be saved or spent on equipment. Though, you may start with additional weapons or natural abilities depending on your race.

All PCs/NPCs that are not human should list the natural weapons they have under the weaponry template. This includes beasts and monsters NPCs.

Weapon and their durability tier
Every weapon ranks has a maximum durability tier.

Regular Rank can have a maximum durability of T5.

Proficient Rank can have a maximum durability of T4.

Strong Rank can have a maximum durability of T3.

Dangerous Rank can have a maximum durability of T2.

Ultimate Rank have a maximum durability of T1, but can be upgraded to either be pure Seastone or mimic Seastone durability for 25 points.

Ranged Weapons
  • Doesn’t need projectile perk = throwing weapons, slingshot etc.
  • Regular = normal gun/flintlock
  • Proficient = semi automatic
  • Strong = automatic
  • Dangerous = sniper

Looting Weapons

There are some rules about looting weapons. You can only loot weapons from NPCs, looting them from PCs should have the permission of the owner since it is their character losing a weapon. Also if you loot from an NPC, they can only be Regular rank weapons and are only temporary. Meaning the weapon can only be used in the current thread and cannot be carried to the next thread unless the character wanted to pay for it.

If you wish to pay for the weapon, then it can be any weapon rank as long as you already made a modification thread about the weapon in question.

Seastone
Seastone is a rare, naturally occurring element that is often used by the marines (though pirates and other factions can gain access to this material, just at greater difficulty). Seastone is known to be one of the hardest materials on the planet, stronger than that of diamond, making it ideal for thing that should not be broken, such as cuffs. The stone emanates the energy of the sea, and when placed upon the bottom of ships, can render them undetectable to the terrors of the ocean, such as the seakings that stalk the ocean. Note thought that this does not make your ship invisible to them. They’re just much less likely to attack you.

Seastone’s most notable ability though, is the ability to render a Devil Fruit user powerless, stripping them of their abilities and sapping their strength on contact. The amount of seastone determines its strength draining ability, with small amounts, such as cuffs, still allowing the person to walk around. Being completely covered in the stuff will render them weak. No matter the amount, direct contact with seastone will always cancel out a Devil Fruit user’s abilities, preventing them from using them until contact is broken.

In terms of clothing, if those clothes are in any way affected by a person’s Devil Fruit (such as a logia’s clothing turning into their element, or some other effect), they will provide no protection against seastone. However, if the clothing is unaffected by the fruit’s abilities, then direct skin contact would be required.


Perks & Pricing

Of course, each weapon has a perk. A perk can be anything that actually describes it: it can from sharpness to mystical powers. These perks, in short, are what makes your weapon unique and definitive, and they are... well, your entire weapon as a whole...

... but it is also those perks that define how much your weapon will truly cost. Fear not, however! We have a list of them just for that specific occasion! Feel free, if you ever need to, to head on over to the Upgrading / Pricing Information thread in the Modification section to give yourself a proper price for your weapon. Additionally, you can find examples of priced items in the Pricing Information (Set Prices) thread so you can have a more proper idea of the weapon or item you are creating.
