RWBY: When ROBs have had enough (AU)

It's both. And for the record, I would recommend not sending anything that bonds or interacts with the soul or the principle of we don't know how it would work with aura. It could go perfectly right, with nothing going wrong, or it could be as catastrophic as forcibly locking her aura and keeping it locked.
 
Thousand year daiklave, mirror shield, portal gun, winged sandals, the elemental gems from final fantasy ... 4 I think?
 
Daiklave is too heavy without essence, which violates magic rule. Mirror shield only really reflects magic, which besides cinder, Salem or Oz nobody uses. Portal gun is iffy due to the fact that it can only really be used on a clear white surface. Dunno where the Winged sandals come from, please elaborate? Elemental gems from what I can see are 10, and come perilously close to violating magic items rule, but if you can give a good argument I'll send them through next.
 
I think basic utility items would probably be best. Probably some form of ranged weapon to give Summer ranged fighting options more effective than Dust bullets, a sensor so Summer can learn more about the Grimm and other things, some form of healing item so she can heal herself, or others if needed. Something defensive to keep her safe, and probably something with a reliable communication ability. And all of them need to be relatively simple, not-reliant on universe specific physics and preferably non-magical.

So
[x] Tricorder from Star Trek
[x] Stimpack from Fallout
[x] Blaster from Star Wars
[x] Portal gun from Portal
[x] Assorted Instant Jusenkyo packets from Ranma 1/2


The Star Trek tricorder is one of the better, more robust and portable analysis machines in the multiverse. Stimpacks from Fallout will keep people on their feet in an emergency. Blasters are very old, very reliable tech from Star Wars, hopefully it'll have enough umph to at least stun a Grimm, and the often-forgotten stun function will help Summer deal with human opponents non-leathily (as I'm sure she'd prefer). The portal gun let's Summer think with portals, I'm sure she's envied Raven's semblance from time to time, well now she can have her own version (and given that she has aura, she doesn't even need the long-fall boots) (Besides, combining the blaster with the portal gun means you can shoot someone in the back while looking into their eyes!). And I may be reaching a bit with the magical items for the Instant Jusenkyo packets, but the ability to create a one-shot Jusenkyo curse is really useful, especially given that the Grimm are believed to leave animals alone.

Does daiklave violate Magic rule or soul rule? If magic rule what is the magic rule again?

As far as mirror shield, she just got dragged out of a fight where being able to reflect magical bullshit would have helped. It's a niche option I admit, but it's a niche that seems applicable.

Portal gun: Do grimm plates count?

Winged sandels originate in greek mythology, they're used to grant the wearer swift flight, they're associated with Hermes, but were lent to Perseus.

Elemental gems: Ok found the game, it's final fantasy 5, and they're elemental crystals, or the shards of such, basically the crystals give access to the ff5 job change system which allows characters to learn special abilities instead of just leveling up. Each gem can grant access to 4-6 classes, or a shard can grant a single class from their gem.

Water: Red Mage, Time mage, Summoner, Mystic Knight, Berserker, mime
Air: Knight, Monk, Thief, white mage, Black mage, blue mage
Fire: Beastmaster, Geomancer, Ninja, Ranger, Bard
Earth: Dragoon, Dancer, Samurai, Chemist

If the thing sent has multiple forms depending on an attachment like from say super sentai or magical girl shows does each "module" get sent one at a time or all at once?
 
Tricorder is approved. However, You will need to wait until next update to get some of the other stuff in, or convince someone else to send it in as a vote.

REVISED LIST:

1. Solid Eye (MGS)
2. Megalixir (FF)
3. Tricorder (ST)

w34v3r: Due to the supposed need of Essence, I believe that the Daiklave supposedly requires more strength then Summer can muster, even with Aura. Violates magic rule due to needing magic in order to wield it properly. (Magic rule is that if an object requires her to use a certain kind of internal energy that isn't aura, then it cannot be sent.) In terms of the Mirror Shield, that makes sense. Portal gun: Afraid not. they are far too small for the portal to properly open. Sandals are magic artifacts, which makes me leery, but like I have said if you can give a good argument as to why we need this (besides flying being the best thing ever) then I'll go with it. Same with the Gems.

Fools: They will be sent seperately, due to the fact they weren't there in the original version of the item. They were added on and changed, but not there from the beginning.

-Minecraft Command Block
-Nuclear Hand Grenades from Children of a Dead Earth (seriously, I've managed to get warheads lighter than 100 grams with boom equivalent to fifty tons of TNT)
-Lightsaber
-A box of Cauldron Formulas (Worm)
-BGF-9000 (Doom)
 
Command Block: You have no redstone. Also, the block really wouldn't do anything, due to the fact that it would only really work in the minecraft verse.
Nuclear hand grenade: Nope. Violates no WMDs rule.
Lightsaber: This is doable, but you would need to send in some kind of training manual so she doesn't cut her hand off when she uses it.
Cauldron Formulas: Already dealt with this, and it's a no.
BFG: Sendable, but not rechargeable. You would need to spend a slot every time to send in some ammo for it, which makes it rather expensive.
 
-1-up Mushroom?
-Gru's Freeze Ray (Despicable Me)
-Alloy Cannon (XCOM)
-Dingbot Prime (Girl Genius)
 
Portal Gun: What about the bigger Grim, or the ones with large armor plates? Like Death stalkers, the white half of a king taijitu, or a ... What are the elephant ones called again?

Winged Sandals: Well it's a magical artifact yes, and it grants fight, ... I mean what more exactly do you want? Would you prefer the hover board from back to the future? When did magic items get banned? I thought that was just ease of on the soul stuff and nothing from a DnD book. What about a Cthulhutech hover cycle? Ok sure we'd have to spend a slot to get it a new D-battery every couple of days, but it'd be awesome... just ignore the tentacles in the edge of your vision.

Elemental Crystals: Well the big thing is that the jobs from the crystals/shards, are powers that can be re-used, shared with the party, and if you master the abilities of the classes you get you can even use some of them without actively being that class. Not all forms are going to be straight power boosts, especially the mage forms since the physical nerfs will HURT anyone whose been hunter trained, but it's incredibly useful. Although I don't know how big those crystals are, might only be able to do a single shard at a time.

-A box of Cauldron Formulas (Worm)

Already tried that approach. Summer is apparently unwilling to take a little invasive brain surgery from the clarketech components of a dead alien world eater in exchange for super powers... the pansy.

A self repairing sword(eith the help of blood)! Who doesn't want that?

Someone with a better performance weapon from a society with a decent tech base, who predominantly fights enemies who don't really bleed blood.
 
Revisiting Portal Gun: The elephants are called Goliaths, and when you put it like that it sounds reasonable. I'll put it in as a niche weapon next update.

Sandals: It might not be able to handle Summer's weight with the heavier weapons that she has.

'Hey! Are you calling me fat?'
Nope. Just saying that your stuff is heavy. As for artifacts in general, the fact that they can be used without needing magic to do magic type stuff makes me leery. I never said that all artifacts were banned, but I wanted some kind of reasoning to be there.

Also, the gems are skirting the edge of 'granting her a special energy' territory. the more physical classes would most likely be perfectly fine, but the mages would be put under much higher scrutiny.


1-up shrooms: If it is an actual mushroom then it violates the no organic objects rule.
 
...Sure. Technically not organic, unless it uses the DNA of the person in question to generate lives.

REVISED LIST:

1. Solid Eye (MGS)
2. Megalixir (FF)
3. Tricorder (ST)
4. 1-up box (Sonic)
5.

Be sure to cast your votes! And Summer has consented to non sensitive questions if you have any.
 
Well Most white magery can be replicated via aura-transfer, look at Jaune.

The dia-holy spell chain however is hard to justify that way.

Also I'm concerned about the tri-corder, I mean assuming it's batteries can last for a few weeks of heavy use, does anyone here actually know how to use them? or read the displays?

Speaking of things she probably can't use, but would be awesome, Iron man or mr. twister armor.
 
...Sure. Technically not organic, unless it uses the DNA of the person in question to generate lives.
I'm pretty sure the way they work is never actually explained, aside from shrugging and saying 'video game logic'.

Anyway, one bit of advice for Summer, before I go to bed.

Dear Summer: Even if we can send you extra lives, please don't start taking them for granted; they're a finite resource that's difficult to get.
 
As for artifacts in general, the fact that they can be used without needing magic to do magic type stuff makes me leery. I never said that all artifacts were banned, but I wanted some kind of reasoning to be there.

Reasoning regarding what? How Summer can use them? How they function away from their universe's local physics?

A last bit of responses before I go to bed.

Gems: I'll put it under a bit more scrutiny, but some basic buffs might not be too bad.

Tricorder: It will not only have an instruction guide, but also be set to Basic Remnantean.

Iron Man Armor:...:evil:

'Believe me; I happen to like my life. While having some insurance about it is nice, I don't really want to have to use it in the first place.'

Artifact Reasoning: I just want a way it can be used outside (or inside if it's a supportive item) of combat. Plus some items are very situational, and not very useful at all. I mean, who would need a ring of summoning cabbage? Summer will usually have a code phrase to speak for the artifact to activate. The magic charge will stay in the artifact until it is used up, and will not be affected by the universal transfer. However, if it runs out you will need to either find a way to recharge it, or let it sit in the Hub.

I can think of at least three uses for a ring of summoning cabbage.

Also, Summer, sorry I got the guyver unit nixed. Those things are awesome. Hmmmmmm can't get you a frozen flame, those are technically alive. You probably don't want a Bob in your house, they're terrible influences on children. A core drill is useable without a lagann, but far more limited. A 26th century portable hologram emitter would be useful if you could program the thing... are gold or carbon diamonds valuable on Remnant?

Considering we have like 3 healing things i'm gonna hold off with my idea and instead suggest other stuff

[X] Biometal X (megaman zx advent)
[X] Electromagnetic deflector (metal gear solid 2)
[X] Storage capsule (dbz) Ideally one that holds a house. (Power is no excuse for a lack of comfort)
