Equipment Crafting (Side-sorta)

While taking a break to craft and make preparations for the fights to come. Hōhei measured every last one of his monsters but, Éternelle, she t lived in his eye socket and is stretchy. After getting the measurements of his monsters noted down into a journal via MISAC, or well just Magic ISAC. He started his work in full as a transmutation artist for once instead of fighting as one. Kinda sad now that he thought about it he's rarely done any full on transmutation crafting work.

So he took this chance to really dive into the non-murderous side of his job. Which he quite enjoyed since the combined feeling of complete calmness, and interest from the act. It honestly eased him for now.

First up he made some rather dangerous claw weapons/armor for Medusa's feet. Before making some hallow yet strong armor for the more important parts on her body. She looked an imposing royal army monster, or from that one owl movie, from a different fantasy world. The armor and weapons he had made for her was a dark green in color with some wind like carvings along the armored bits. He with the help of Bemo programmed skills into the armor so she's got his wind type attacks. Her weapons were in the form of some claw weapons from Earth for war Hawks or other birds.

Medusa is now essentially Pidgeotto because she's got some of my skills in her stuff. Heh gotta catch them all.

While the claw weapons covered her feet and bits of her legs on the front and bottom thigh area of them. On the bottom and the back you could see some clips that held everything together. While the main claw like parts were covering her talons completely just a little longer by ten inches. The set up seemed to please the giant bird monster though as she could freely move still. Along attack with everything at her disposal and new loaned skills. Just Hōhei wished she didn't enjoy hearing the clinks of the claw weapons on the ground.

After Medusa he focused on Boric which wasn't hard as he is small and could potentially learn martial arts. Which Hōhei planned to drill into the little demonic monkey's brain once he resurfaced. Armor wise Boric had been made some dark green mini light, but very durable, armor. It was pretty bland and had no special features engraved besides a pair of dice on the chest. The weapons he was given though were some MMA styled protective gear and gauntlets. He got physical skills, magic skills, and Marksman programmed into his armor. MONKEY MONK WILL HAPPEN.

Afterwards he made one rather long and stretched out piece of tough armor for Silva. That protected the entire top part of her body and sides from attacks. Her armor wasn't engraved like Boric's so far only Medusa had engraved armor due her personality. Which she got physical and magic skills programmed into it along with stealth.

Moonlight well not much is needed said as the giant shadow cat got an assassin style setup. Hōhei deciding it was a must while muttering strangely something about "Khajiit sneaks and steals everything." Skill wise he got stealth, necromancy, physical skills, and magic related ones. Was this a good idea? No clue. Hōhei just wanted an annoying Khajiit style set up.

After he was put into the assassin like armor Moonlight dove into the shadows. The big cat embarrassed that because of his feminine attitude he got a more feminine styled armor. Chuckling at the big cat a bit Hōhei wondered what the world looks like through the shadows. Probably muted of colors. The patchwork like book at his side though shook seeming wanting to answer. However, he left it be as the answer wasn't that important to him, plus he still had work.

Focusing on Relic and what all she can do he thought of a few types to make. In the end he made Relic some armor that if you know War Hammer you'd likely stab him for it. The look on the wolfs face was one of confusion, because why this, and wonder as she sorta liked War Hammer 40k from his memories. Hōhei however paid her no mind and thought of something else to do immediately as a small break. He had no ideas till he got to work on some new clothes for the twins, and a few weapons for the Behemoth pair. They looked like crippled hobos.

Akuma: "So how the hell do you two want to fight? You look like a Demi-Human right now. So it'd be best to play like you are to some extent plus, you know a weapon can help out a lot."

Fafnir silently thought about it while his counter part Fenrir loudly groaned thinking. She hates thinking out of the pair. This is going to be a long day.... No a long life actually he corrected himself. Because he doubts it'd be the last of these kind of scenes probably. Fafnir eventually spoke up first as he scratched at his chin while still thinking a bit.

Fafnir: "It has been so long but I remember fighting some adventures that were a special party. One of them was in my current shape vision wise yet that damned Demon was an excellent assassin."

Fenrir: "You mean that party that had annoying blue haired child, some violent red head prick, someone radiating some annoying light, and that assassin that kept trying to shredded our body apart from the ass?"

Fafnir: "Mm yes I believe they called their party Rift Walk. Though it was glorious to see their faces when we popped that annoying fly into a mist of blood!"

The giant man laughed merrily remembering some distant event that happened before. Huh so they remembered something's from the past? His amusement got his female counterpart to finally really think before she looked at her hands then at Hōhei.

Fenrir: "Make me something to crush everything with my fist before I kick your ass."

This comment had earned Fenrir a jab in the side from a giant scorpion monsters pinchers. While her friend well he violently man handled her horn with a blank face. Chuckling Hōhei was about to say sure when some rather large spiders were plopped in front of him by Moonlight. He looked at Hōhei and expected something seemingly. Petting wasn't it though neither was encouraging words or food..... Hōhei figured it out after an hour and sighed exasperated.

Wondering why such a monster was a little weird about this all as Moonlight silently watched him. Currently training the random spiders he was given to weave their thread into string and such. After they could at least make him thread from their webbing. Hōhei was then made to make something from the spider silk while a monster showed his teeth. Needless to say the damn cat had wanted a veil like one of the strange maids it once saw. Wasn't a maid that was a belly dancer.

After the feminine male monster was pleased Hōhei had the spiders, which totaled six rather unique looking ones. Climb along his prosthetic arm and cling to it as he took them to a impromptu stone table that suddenly appeared. Letting them off onto the stone table he sat down a chair transmuting into existence as he sat. Looking at the spider's he asked them to do something's for the clothing side of things.

Akuma: "Okay then first up Flame, Bright, and Grim please can you make me some of your webbing in a large quantity?"

A spider that looked like a giant fiery wolf spider responded with a spritely dance. A lazy giant white gold Australian Peacock spider look a like bounced up and down. Finally a giant dark spider that looked like a huntsman spider, with a literal skull on its back abdomen, saluted. Starting to make thread till Hōhei said stop after six minutes of them slowly, and carefully producing their different colored threads.

Once that was done he fished out a large piece of ore from his bag for one task. Taking Bright's white golden thread he carefully moved it along the ore while transmuting the two. Once he finished the task he made the tough thread into something a little tougher. After all clothes with kevlar like strength would be useful.

From there he made it into a cloth mask for the upper half the face. Setting that aside for now once he finished it, Hōhei looked into his memories he chuckled a little looking at some of Castra's memories. The armor style that fit Fafnir's request was themed after, a character named Souie, from an old anime Castra watched once. Fafnir's weapons though were two serated daggers, two tantos, and a great sword. All of which were well received by the giant of a man. He had every physical buffing and attacking skill like limit break added to his stuff. Along with prosthetics for him.

Fenrir well Hōhei just stared at her blankly before going to work on her stuff. She looked at him offened for the blank stare. He used thread from Flame, Bright, Drizzle, a large aquamarine tarantula, Space, a dark stary purple spider, a very big goliath spider look a like, and Dust, an earthen looking spider that resembles a black widow. Using their threads he made some Japanese style clothing and wrappings for combat/lining. Using the wrappings he lined a part of some very bulky looking gauntlets innards with the lining to make them comfortable. Sandwiching the fabric between a Taur Stone and Stall Ore alloy he transmuted while collecting materials. Fenrir received the items and looked at him weirdly, getting hit for it by Hōhei. Skill wise she got everything physical.

Akuma: "Thats for threatening me and for the weird look, we're all good now but next time run away."

After all of that he went to lay on Paran who stayed still. The monster seemingly curious it made some clicking sounds. Hōhei just chuckled softly and pat Paran's exoskeleton a bit.

Akuma: "Sorry big guy that your not getting anything your pretty armored, and got some great weapons already. But if you get cold I could do something if you cold? Can you even get cold Paran?"

The scorpion just shook it's body unsure.
