Kyōken(First puppet)

[Dojima Niroboshi]

Unlike other puppets, I wish for mine to be integrated into my body. The character I intend to play, will have no right arm. (A tragic birth defect or something) I would like this puppet to be much like full metal, A fake arm strapped to my shoulder in place of my missing one.

How will this effect my handseals? Or will it even? 

also a question about puppetry in general. 

It is quoted here "As a puppeteer, one is entitled to their first puppet being free, fully loaded with a preset build of attachments that max out a puppet's slot-space amount. Ammunition must be bought separately. Strength of starting puppet varies by rank:"


does this mean when I create my character, I may have this puppet without paying any ryo?

anyway without further adieu

Kyōken
(The strong arm)

Rank: C
(wooden 2 meters)

Type
Puppet-Offensive-Defensive-Supplementary

Description
A large arm equipped with a harness to be strapped onto a body in place of a missing limb. The assembly is a bit bulkier and longer than a normal looking arm, but can still be Concealed under a long sleeved shirt. When uncovered, the joints and wooden plates make it obvious that it is a puppet.

But the kyoken takes on another use outside of battle, acting as a prosthetic limb for its owner and allowing for a somewhat normal life. The bond between the user and kyoken will be strong, as it has become like another arm for them. 

Cost
8000 (if my math is correct, or free, as this is my first puppet)

Armaments 

30/30 slots

• Piston

            (Located in palm)

Rank: C- 4 slots // 2 meter release 
Type: Puppet Attachment / Melee
Special: Consumes a certain amount of slots depending on attachment quality (rank). The piston's ability to deal and take damage is equivalent to it's rank.  
Description: A large metal bar that can be pointed or spiked at the users discretion. The piston moved in and out of the body when activated with tremendous speed and force. If one was struck with a fast moving piston it would deal incredible concussive force as well as possibly pierce into the target. The piston can also be inserted into joints causing limbs or weapons to act as the fast moving object rather than the piston itself.
Cost: C: 500 ryo

• Drill

        (retractable from the elbow joint)
Rank: D - 4 slots // 1 meter bore
Type: Puppet Attachment / Melee
Special: Consumes a certain amount of slots depending on attachment quality (rank). The drill's ability to deal and take damage is equivalent to it's rank
Description: A large metal drill that spins at a powerful rate. The drill spins with enough force to tear into most structures and eventually pierce completely through it. The drill can also be inserted into joints causing limbs or weapons to act as the fast spinning object rather than the drill itself.
Cost: D: 250 ryo

• Extendable limbs
  (throughout the entire puppet, extending my reach)

Rank: C- 4 slots // 6 meter stretch
Type: Puppet Part / Ranged
Special: Consumes a certain amount of slots depending on attachment quality (rank). An extendable limb can also be used on the puppets body allowing his torso or neck to stretch.
Description: A system of folding structures that allows a limb to stretch farther than it's normal reach. This works by adding in a flexible spacer every few inches or so in the limbs structure giving it the ability to reach farther and flexibly maneuver.
Cost: C: 500 Ryo

• Afterburners 

        (located throughout the arm entire assembly)

Rank: C- 4 slots // 2 shunshin bursts
Type: Puppet Gear / Self
Special: Consumes a certain amount of slots depending on attachment quality (rank). Shunshin burst can be up to ten meters in any direction. Complex movements cannot be made such as zig zags or curves, only linear in one direction. One is able to shoot straight up or down. Amount of bursts per thread depends on the quality (rank) of the equipment.
Description: A series of incredibly small pipes leading out all over the puppets body. The pipes themselves are connected to a small reservoir of oil contained within any part of the puppets body. Through the burning of high potency fuel, the puppet can make a near instant shunshin like movement. 
Cost: C: 500 Ryo

• Flash Pillar

        (hidden right under the forearm plate)

Rank: C- 4 slots // 10x10 meter flash [x2]
Type: Puppet Gear / Melee
Special: Consumes a certain amount of slots depending on attachment quality (rank). Produces a blinding flash, similar to that of a flash bomb. Amount of uses per turn before needing a charge depends on the quality (rank) of the device.
Description: A powerful light positioned anywhere in the body with it's cords leading to an internal battery in the puppet. By activating the battery the user can send out a powerful beam of light and temporarily blinding the target.
Cost: C: 500 Ryo 

• Integrated Melody Gauntlet
  (strapped to the forearm)

Rank: C- 8 slots 
Type: Puppet Attachment / Melee
Special: Takes up 4 slots per the rank of the weapon. Allows the puppet to integrate a weapon directly into their body such a sword, spear, dagger, etc. The weapon can be automatically sheathed, unsheathed and fired from the puppets body at kunai speed. This only works with a specific type of weapon per use. If one gets this for a sword it only works for that specific type of sword. One can use this attachment as many times as they have slots for it with as many different weapons as they like.
Description: One of many styles of internal sheathe systems made to sheathe, unsheathe, operate and fire a non thrown weapon. These include daggers, spears, hammers, swords, shields, bows, whips or any other non secondary weapon.
Cost: C: 500 Ryo

Melody arm

Rank: C

Type: Main (integrated) 

Special: This gauntlet gives the user access to the Kyoumeisen (Resonating Echo Drill) sound technique.

Description: A porous metal gauntlet that is located on either of the user's arms. It is used to amplify or absorb sound waves caused by their arm's movements. The sound waves caused by the melody arm can then be manipulated, and directed with chakra causing more damage. They can also bring on blurred vision, dizziness, as well as paralyzing the target of jutsu that are dealt by this weapon. It can also act as a defense by blocking kunai and shuriken, and even full on sword strikes due to its thick, heavy composition (this is all part of Kyoumeisen, and not free-form control of the vibrations).

Cost: 3,000 ryo.

• Saw

        (retracts along the back side of the upper arm)

Rank: D- 2 slots // 1 meter blade 
Type: Puppet Attachment / Melee

Cost: D: 250 ryo

hope to hear from you soon.

well...... to begin with we dont have a system set up for implanted puppets. and you would never be able to weave seals unless you bought one-handed seals and even then you would lose control of your arm while doing them. because you required to use one chakra string per puppet to control them so you would be using a finger on your real arm to control the other which screws you for seals AND taijutsu

to answer your question though, yes your first puppet is free but a price must still be stated for value purposes.

I like where youre going with this, being the main puppetry authority at the moment, but this just isnt workable for our system at the moment.

[Dojima Niroboshi]

I should probably mention that this is not an implanted puppet, but rather harnessed onto my body and can be detached.

As for workability, I intend to fix this.

If I could direct your attention to this please and thank you

as for the signing, I may just have to plead with staff.. If my character was born with only one arm, it would be natural (with enough stubbornness and determination) for them to learn to seal with only one hand. Right?

[KEITH]

I see what you are going for here, Chew. But as Wolfy has stated, at the moment, we do not have a system for things like this—but that doesn’t mean we will never have a thing like this integrated into the site. You aren’t the first person here to have wanted a mechanical appendage or eye or whatever. At the current time, though for flavor, how about your character starts off with just a regular mechanical arm? You would still be able to perform seals on all, but specifically what you want to do is a bit more than what I current system is prepared for. Certainly, with an arm doing everything you want it to do with your equipment, you would have a large edge on others and ICly unsuspecting of a thing like it. So, I praise you for your cleverness. But in the meantime, we will work something out for one’s like yourself, who wish to be as creative and unique as you are. What you can create for your mechanical arm now, or implement into its design is two mechanisms. Pick any two that you wish to have incorporated into your arm and you can have them. I know it big lost on what you would get when having a full puppet, way less, but you have to remember you aren’t using a full puppet. And, ICly, it would be kind of over the top if a Genin were to have all of this stuff fresh out of the Academy (depending on where you start your characters story off) or whatever. If you are willing to settle with just that, then everything is great. You wouldn’t have to use one arm to control the other or whatever, it will be just like a completely new arm.

[Dojima Niroboshi]

Hmm..
I'm not trying to be uncooperative or anything, Just a few more questions, And I will most definitely comply with staff decisions. humor me please <3

I guess I'm not understanding the issue entirely. I still wish to be a puppeteer, it just so happens that my creation takes the form of an arm. If we stop thinking of it as an appendage, and more as a puppet. then it is fine right? I mean, I followed the system to the best of my knowledge. 

so lets just say I decided to keep both arms, and still make this. A puppet that I would have strapped around my waist like a third arm. Basically it would be a stationary puppet that is attached to me via harness. impractical as it sounds, it would still be legal yes?

I don't think the issue is with the puppet correct? but my intentions for the puppet right? I intend to rely on it as a right hand, which would prevent me from signing while using the puppet. 

If that is the case, I would like to go ahead and push for this, and just deal with the lack of signing. I want my character to struggle and I feel like that would definitely make it harder for him.

If we still have issues I may just scrap the one-armed idea and go for full two armed puppeteer XD

[Dojima Niroboshi]

Id also like to say that you are all being very kind about this situation. Ive had some very bad experiences with custom threads before. But you are all making this a very smooth process. Thank you <3

[Etherion]

well... I mean 'by the system system' this is fine to me, it fits as a puppet. and if you're sure you wanna do it like that I can grade it.

The main issue is as a whole, you'd be limited to taijutsu and sealless ninjutsu until you were able to control the arm. Hell if you want come to Kumogakure and I can have my puppeteer help you along till youve got control.

also I made the hand-free control if you want me to archive your own lemme know

[Dojima Niroboshi]

Yes, you may archive my other thread, thank you.

Alright so lets say I go through all this, and make it through character creation with 100exp to spare...

At that point, what is stopping me from purchasing your "heart of puppetry" technique as soon as it's created?

And lets go ahead and grade this, I'll work out the kinks later. Please and thank you

[KEITH]

You could do that, since you would only spend 375 at most after creation. Since you have to use 75% of your EXP on your first character.
