Weapons and Equipment
"I'm not here for display pieces, Mr. Shopkeep. I'm here for weapons."

- Rainier unsatisfied with what a pawn broker is offering him

(Pictures coming soon...)

Lancelot
Lancelot is a heavy Leighly-Braun Manifold equipped Pistol that flash-fabricates a .44 Magnum round. Each magazine can provide enough dust to print an incredible 40 rounds, but fire is limited to semi-automatic only. The pistol has a left-offset laser sight, muzzle brake/compensator, and a 30cm bayonet underneath.

Its alternate form is a very unique weapon. Designed to capitalize on both Rainer's extensive archery training and the Aura conduit effect, Lancelot turns into a weapon that resembles a fairly small, 90-centimeter shortbow. The internal systems use input from the cable drum on the back to simulate the drawstring on an actual bow. From there, the weapon will launch the 3d-printed arrow based on the input. The same dust magazine for the pistol is used to print arrows. On a full load, the weapon can print 20 arrows.

In capitalizing on the Aura Conduit Effect, Rainer routes his semblance through the weapon to fire super-powered "Kinesis" arrows. These allow him to use his semblance at long range, but routing such a power through thee weapon takes its toll. Thus, the arms serve yet another purpose: venting waste heat away from the user.

Guinevere
Guinevere is a Manifold equipped sawed-off shotgun with a cleaver bayonet, no stock, and ammo drum. Deceptively small at only 40 cm long, Guinevere's manifold can print a variety of ammo types (slugs, buckshot, flechettes, frag, etc.). The dust drum provides enough material for the manifold to create 120 shells.

Jumpkit
Rainer uses a custom-built over-under jumpkit. This increases his ability to make rapid forward movements and extremely long distance jumps, but at the cost of lateral movements and stability. To compensate, he uses his semblance for lateral adjustments.

Semblance
"Have a nice trip"

- Rainier as he shows a boarbatusk how to fly Kinesis: Extremely versatile, Rainier can create up to 20 of these glyphs from his hands and feet or within 5 meters of his person. When activated, each glyph produces a blast of 3000 newtons that either radiates (on its own) or is concentrated forward (in a fist or kick). Each glyph requires 5 minutes to regenerate and multiple can be stacked together should the necessity arise.

Backstory
"The land is not to be taken lightly. It can protect you as much as it can harm you."

- Ancient Sahale Proverb Rainier is a native of the Sahale Federation and Menagerie. His people have lived on the harsh Sahale Plateue for centuries as nomads. Though this behavior is no longer as relevant in the modern era, the aboriginal people still hold thee land in very high regard. Especially considering how the extreme, Tibet-like winters could threaten Grimm and bandits. Otherwise, the aboriginal Sahali have been huntsman for as long as their history goes back. Many serve in the Federation Military or as Private Contractors. Thus, it is basically tradition for every Sahali child to enter into this field. After learning many things as a child, from archery, tracking, marksmanship, and all other skills needed to survive on the Plateue, Rainier needed to attend a Hunter Academy to acquire any missing skills and the certification documents. Due to a lack of funds and the general stigmas surrounding Menagerie, Rainer chose to avoid Beacon and instead attended the Flagg Institute. Now a graduate, he works mostly as one of the institute's elite Eliminators though he hasn't turned from taking care of Grimm when needed by his people.
