A.R.C Blade

The Arc Raptor Combat (A.R.C) Blade is designed specifically for Kitsune Wilde. It features a machete structure and a inbuilt battery system that allows Kit to charge it for higher damaging strikes. Kit can find a more Volatile Battery in contracts to boost the effectiveness of the charge even more until the next map change. Upon pickup of the Raikiri, the A.R.C Blade is replaced for the duration of the campaign/mission.

Lore

'Arc Raptor Combat Blade'. Rather silly if you ask me but its sharper than an owls claws and it's got a little switch that turns on an internal battery that imbues the blade with electricity. Swinging it hard enough lets me throw out blades of lightning at whatever I like and having it turned on dampens the impact of anything I block, I have trouble blocking bullets with blades in general because of the force off setting my next movement but with the battery on it's absolutely no hassle. If I can find a volatile battery laying around out there, it won't last that long but it will imbue the blade with incredibly explosive power, launching slashes of red lightning at stuff is fun in and of itself. I think I'm growing to love this little thing."
