OFFHAND WEAPONS

[☆ F ☆]

Offhand weapons can be used as a main form of attack, but are usually worn on the user's offhand to improve the rest of the shinobi's attack repertoire. Sized just large enough to be threatening to the victim but small enough to not over encumber the user, offhand weapons are a great way to keep yourself on the attacking front should your other offensive mediums fail.

Wrist-Mounted Senbon Launcher
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offhand weapon. Ranged.
Special: --
Description: This device is used by the shinobi to launch senbon at their opponent in a group pattern. While not the most accurate shot, it is comprised of a five-part segmented device with barrels on top where the senbon are loaded and barrels when the strings are pulled, allowing it to shoot multiple projectiles at once. Wires on the back of these barrels facilitate the launching of the senbon by retracting it and then letting go, much like how one fires a bow. It is usually kept concealed underneath the user's sleeve on either arm, and is excellent for surprise attacks due to its spreading, shot-gun like effect.
Cost: 5,000 Ryo



Blowpipe
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offhand weapon. Ranged.
Special: --
Description: A blowpipe, or blowgun, is a simple ranged weapon consisting of a long hollow tube made of wood through which darts, senbon and other projectiles are inserted and then shot out with frightening accuracy. It operates by having the projectile placed inside the pipe and using the force created by forced exhalation to pneumatically propel the projectile.
Cost: 5,000 Ryo



Jōhyō (Rope Dart)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offhand weapon. Ranged.
Special: --
Description: The jōhyō consists of a long rope with a handle attached to one end, and a sharply bladed metal dart attached to other, acting as a weight which allows the user to throw the dart out at a long range target to bind them, then either reel them in or perform an attack on them.
Cost: 5,000 Ryo



Kusari Fūbō (Chain Wind Staff)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offhand weapon. Ranged.
Special: --
Description: The Chain Wind Staff (鎖風棒, Kusari Fūbō) is very similar to a short chigiriki, albeit it has a weighted chain attached to each end. It consists of a solid staff with an iron weight and chains on the ends. The quick rotation of the two chains is powerful enough to plow through basic armor, as it can be thrown like a boomerang towards the target.
Cost: 5,000 Ryo



Kama (Sickle)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offhand weapon. Melee and Ranged.
Special: --
Description: A kama is a sickle used as a weapon. It has a short handle and a pointed beak with a sharp cutting edge that inflicts damage. Unlike its traditional intended use, the kama has been most commonly observed being employed by shinobi as a throwing weapon rather than in close combat, where the entire weapon is tossed in such a manner that it rotates quickly end over end to increase the probability that the bladed edge will strike its intended target.
Cost: 5,000 Ryo



Kunai Blade
Rank: B
Type: Offhand weapon. Melee.
Special: --
Description: This kunai-like weapon is actually a blade. Its general appearance is that of a kunai, but the blade instead is curved, elongated, and single-edged, giving it a similar appearance and function to a sword. The weapon has a small hole right near its long, bandaged hilt, while at its edge, it sports a larger version of the standard ring all kunai have. While not in use, the user usually keeps the blade bandaged and strapped to their back.
Cost: 10,000 Ryo



Double-Bladed Bracer
Rank: B
Type: Offhand weapon. Melee.
Special: --
Description: The metal bracer consists of a metallic gauntlet with two sharp blades fixated on the top of the glove. The user wields it in hand-to-hand combat, trying to injure an opponent. In addition, while defending against attacks, the blades can also inflict injury.
Cost: 10,000 Ryo



Wrist Launcher
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offhand weapon. Ranged.
Special: --
Description: This multi barreled wrist launcher on can be worn on either arm, and is attached to their back, allowing the user to spray or shoot different types of smoke or light bombs at opponents. The barrels surround either forearm, and must be reloaded manually once shot.
Cost: 10,000 Ryo



Mechanical Drilling Arm
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m ~ 20m)
Type: Offhand weapon. Melee and Ranged.
Special: Powered by the user's chakra, this weapon's cost is sustained when the spinning effect is in use, and equal to an 'A' rank jutsu.
Description: This mechanical drilling arm device is, as its name implies, an arm-mounted weapon. Acting as a gauntlet, the hand of the device consists of a mildly conical-shaped palm with five long fingers. The hand section spins independently of the rest of the gauntlet and can be launched on a long cable before being retracted. It can also be used to dig multiple holes and create trenches large enough to change the terrain. Finally, this drilling device is powerful enough to seriously injure any opponent that remains unguarded.
Cost: 20,000 Ryo



Metal Gauntlets
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m ~ 20m)
Type: Offhand weapon. Melee and Ranged.
Special: --
Description: A pair of large, metal gauntlets which also houses a long, retractable shuriken chain running between the two, which is used to bind an enemy and then shred them to pieces. In the event that the shuriken chain is neutralized, the gauntlets also have a release mechanism to free the user for individual attacks with the sharp claws on the fingers, which can also be poisoned for further lethality.
Cost: 20,000 Ryo



Scissor Pincers
Rank: A
Type: Offhand weapon. Melee.
Special: --
Description: These scissor-like pincers have a spring that is connected to the arm and bicep by a black strip. Using a white cord tied to the base of each blade and held in the hand, it allows the user to effectively use the overly large pincers without much effort or using both hands. Easy to incorporate as a regular part of one's fighting style, it is used to chop or slice targets in battle. It's strong enough to break through strong defenses, up to rock, making it perfect for striking opponents with it too.
Cost: 20,000 Ryo
