Legendary Weapons

**Legendary Weapons** are powerful magic weapons wielded by the five Emissaries of Alan, created by Alan Xian himself roughly six hundred thousand years before *Autistic Adventures*, in order to combat the forces of the First Dark Lord and his army. The appearances and abilities of these weapons were designed based on the Emissaries' personal inputs.

After the First Dark Lord War, which resulted in the death of three of the Five Emissaries, Alan, Li Shimin, and Divya Veda migrated to the Wizard Realm, taking the Legendary Weapons with them. The three Weapons that lost their original users were scattered across the world, finding new wielders to serve, and were passed down from one user to the next since then.

## History

### Messianic Japamala

Since its creation, Divya Veda possessed the Messianic Japamala. The Legendary Weapon aided the Emissary through her battles for over six hundred thousand years, before ultimately evolving into the **Amulet of Sagacity** during the three years between *Autistic Adventures* and *Actually-Good Shippuden*. The evolved Weapon would continue to aid Divya, and house and heal Kurama, the Nine-Tailed Fox, until the end of the Second Dark Lord War, during which the First Emissary died and the Tailed Beast was set free. The Holy Tree containing the Amulet of Sagacity would eventually be moved into the Holy Library's garden and be publicly displayed.

### Bronze Baton

Since its creation, Li Shimin possessed the Bronze Baton. The Legendary Weapon aided the Emissary through his battles for over six hundred thousand years, before ultimately evolving into the **Silver Baton** during the Battle of the Holy Library. The evolved Weapon would continue to aid Li while he served the Nigaboos. Near the end of the Second Dark Lord War, Li's temporary death caused a Holy Tree to appear around the Silver Baton. Despite his resurrection, the Legendary Weapon deemed him unworthy to wield it, and refused to be called by him, causing Li to abandon the weapon. The Holy Tree containing the Silver Baton would eventually be moved into the Holy Library's garden and be publicly displayed.

### Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch was created for the Third Emissary, Charles Clerk, to aid him in battle during the First Dark Lord War. After his death, the Legendary Weapon was taken to the Wizard Realm, enchanted, and scattered across the world. It eventually ended up on the wasteland where Game-Land would be found, creating a Holy Tree and residing there for some time. Roughly five thousand years before *Autistic Adventures*, the land around the Nintendo Switch's Holy Tree experienced a catastrophic drought, endangering the human tribes colonizing the area. During this time, the Nintendo Switch deemed one of the tribe's leader worthy of its power, and revealed itself to them. With the Weapon's power and their own Game Magic Intrinsic, the tribe leader united the other tribes and formed the early periods of Game-Land. Using the Nintendo Switch as a template, many gaming consoles were invented and sold to the rest of the world, which stimulated the nation's economy. After the tribe leader's death, the Nintendo Switch once again became sealed in a Holy Tree; its legacy and usage would be forgotten over time, causing Game-Land citizens to credit the formation of their country and inventions to the early tribe leaders instead. Four years before *Autistic Adventures*, Christian Price discovered the Holy Tree after receiving a vision of it in his dream. Although the Nintendo Switch initially did not deem him worthy, the nineteen-year-old strived to obtain the Legendary Weapon by acting as a vigilante and bringing a criminal to justice every single day. Christian's efforts were finally rewarded three years later, when the Legendary Weapon acknowledged his efforts and chose to serve him. With this power, Christian was able to defeat Aiden Higora during the four-year election of Prime Minister, and obtain the position of Prime Minister, becoming the youngest person to assume the position at the age of twenty-two. The Nintendo Switch would aid Christian in protecting his own country from foreign threats, including several invasions from the Nigaboos during the the Second Dark Lord War. The Nintendo Switch eventually evolved into the Nintendo Labo during the Game-Land Civil War.

### Divine Spoon

The Divine Spoon was created for the Fourth Emissary, Ivan Rodríguez, to aid him in battle during the First Dark Lord War. After his death, the Legendary Weapon was taken to the Wizard Realm, enchanted, and scattered across the world. Not much is known about the Divine Spoon's history since then. Roughly six hundred thousand years later, it eventually ended up near the borders of Game-Land, where it was eventually discovered by Li Shimin, Peter Yan, and Nimrod Raven. Reacting to Nimrod's presence, the Divine Spoon revealed itself to its chosen user, but was immediately stolen by Andrei Krakowski. After a brief skirmish, Keyonne was able to retrieve the Legendary Weapon and his ally, though it was ultimately recovered by its original owner by the end of the Battle of the Holy Library. The Spoon would later be temporarily confiscated by the Fourth Reich of Deutschland following a failed infiltration by Nimrod Raven, Michael Hitler, and Aiden Higora, but later be reclaimed by Michael and returned to Nimrod. Nimrod eventually evolved the Divine Spoon into the Spork of Destruction during the Battle of Game-Land. The Holy Tree containing the Spork of Destruction would eventually be moved into the Holy Library's garden and be publicly displayed after Nimrod's death during the Battle of the Wizard Realm.

### Animal Morphing Sword

The Animal Morphing Sword was created for the Fifth Emissary, Umi Usagi, to aid her in battle during the First Dark Lord War. After her death, the Legendary Weapon was taken to the Wizard Realm, enchanted, and scattered across the world. It would eventually end up in the hands of Sydney Smith six hundred thousand years later through unorthodox methods, causing the Weapon to not display its true appearance while wielded by her. While having Umi Usagi's soul channeled through her via Li's Spirit Magic, Sydney was able to utilize the Sword in its real form, and subsequently evolve it during her time at the Kingdom of Beasts. The Holy Tree containing the Blade of Beasts would eventually be moved into the Holy Library's garden and be publicly displayed after Sydney's death during the Battle of the Wizard Realm.

## Abilities

Despite each Legendary Weapon possessing its own unique power, there are a few abilities they all share.

* **Nigh-Invulnerability**: Besides being made of durable materials to begin with, all the Legendary Weapons were permanently imbued with defensive enchantments from Alan's Abyss Magic after they were taken to the Wizard Realm, making them nigh-invulnerable. The only possible way to destroy a Legendary Weapon is to erase its enchantments with Void Magic Ore, then deliver severe damage to it until it is broken beyond repair.
* **Tree Generation**: When a wielder of a Legendary Weapon falls in battle, and the weapon is dropped onto the ground, a tree will immediately sprout from below and encase it, disregarding the requirements for plant growth. The tree is physically indestructible, being impervious to any form of damage, is inflammable, and incapable of rotting. When a person the Legendary Weapon deems "worthy" is within close proximity to the tree, commonly known as a "Holy Tree", the weapon sealed within it will eject itself out of said tree and approach its new wielder, and only then would the tree decay and wither away. Despite being invincible, the tree can still be uprooted and transported elsewhere.
* **Semi-Sentience**: All the Legendary Weapons possess some form of sentience, being able to choose their own wielders and even change their "minds" later on. A Legendary Weapon may even act "disobedient" when used by someone it deems "unworthy", displaying only portions of its full strength when used.
* **Weapon Calling**: The wielder of a Legendary Weapon can telekinetically call their weapon back into their hands in case it is ever separated from them. However, if the weapon is being wielded by another, it cannot be summoned until it is released from the false user's grasps.
* **Light Dowsing**: Legendary Weapons emit light when within close proximity to another Legendary Weapon, with the light's intensity increasing as the distance between the weapons decrease. This ability only activates if the wielder is consciously unaware of the presence of nearby Legendary Weapons, and would deactivate once the user of a Legendary Weapon acknowledges the existence of the other weapons. Having four Legendary Weapons near each other will cause them to gravitate towards each other and create a web-like compass out of light, which points in the general direction of the fifth Weapon while also causing it to shine, disregarding the distance between them.
* **Evolution**: All the Legendary Weapons are capable of evolving into a newer and stronger version of themselves given the right circumstances. Some of the evolved Legendary Weapons have completely changed their physical appearance compared to their devolved form, while some simply changed their color with some minor extra features. Aside from the change in appearance, evolved Legendary Weapons also significantly enhance pre-existing powers and grant new powers in addition. A notable example being the Bronze Baton and its evolution, the Silver Baton; while the Bronze Baton is capable of generating powerful shockwaves, shockwaves created by the Silver Baton are vastly more destructive, and it is also capable of changing its form into other weapons and bypassing magic-induced intangibility.

## Legendary Weapons

* **Messianic Japamala**: The Legendary Weapon of Divya Veda, the First Emissary. It appears as a string of translucent prayer beads that wraps around the user's wrist. Its primary power is the ability to stockpile raw power over time, tremendously enhancing the user's physical abilities when used until all the accumulated energy is expended. While used, the user is enveloped with an aura of yellow electricity. Its secondary power is automatically generating a durable forcefield around the user when detecting an incoming assaults, protecting them from surprise attacks, though it could shatter with sufficient force.
	+ **Amulet of Sagacity**: The evolved form of the Messianic Japamala. It appears as a golden amulet attached to a necklace. The appearance of the amulet changes depending on the entity residing within it. Aside from being able to accumulate more power at a faster rate and being able to generate a far more durable forcefield to protect its user, the Amulet of Sagacity possesses the ability to seal living beings into its user. Upon coming in contact with the being the user wishes to seal into themselves, the Weapon forcibly seals the being into the user's body while changing its appearance to resemble the sealed entity. The seal is nigh-unbreakable, as the Amulet was capable of sealing even the Greatbug, an extraterrestrial creature capable of manipulating the magic-nullifying energy Void Magic. However, the seal can be easily broken and release the sealed being from the user's body if the Legendary Weapon is ever physically separated from the user.
* **Bronze Baton**: The Legendary Weapon of Li Shimin, the Second Emissary. It appears as a bronze water bottle. It possesses an incredibly durable outer shell made out of bronze, and is capable of generating shockwaves through contact with any medium, even air itself, with the power of the shockwaves being proportional to the user's strength when using it. This weapon could be telekinetically controlled by its user's magic to fly at high speeds. Due to its resemblance with a water bottle, this weapon could also store water within it, which slowly gains healing properties after a given amount of time, and could be used by pouring it onto an injured being.
	+ **Silver Baton**: The evolved form of the Bronze Baton. Its default form appears as a silver water bottle, though it can change forms at the user's will, allowing it to deal various forms of damage by morphing into different weapons. Another power the Silver Baton gained was the ability to become selectively intangible, allowing the user to manipulate where it damages as well as bypass the intangibility induced by others. In addition, the ratio between shockwave output and strength input for the Silver Baton is much greater than the Bronze Baton, allowing the user to use less strength to create stronger shockwaves.
* **Nintendo Switch**: The Legendary Weapon once wielded by Charles Clerk, the Third Emissary. Currently wielded by Christian Price. It appears as a mobile video game console, consisting of a rectangular tablet-like monitor and a red and a blue controller attached to its sides via rails. Using the Nintendo Switch requires an initial charging process, where the user charges the Weapon with their own magic by powering it on and gripping the two controllers, known as joycons, with both hands. While charging, the user cannot take their hands off the joycons, or else the process will be halted and consequently return the Switch's power to zero, leaving them defenseless. After the Switch charges up, the user becomes absolutely invincible, but the amount of time they can remain so is determined by the Switch's power. In addition, they must constantly remain in contact with the Nintendo Switch or else they will lose their invincibility.
	+ **Nintendo Labo**: The evolved form of the Nintendo Switch. It appears as a cardboard box in the shape of a briefcase when inactive. When deployed, the Legendary Weapon resembles a suit of armor made out of cardboard, with large blue fists and feet. Repulsors are positioned underneath the armor's soles and around the upper back, allowing sustainable and stable flight as long as magic is supplied. Compared to its pre-evolution, the Nintendo Labo allows the user to be considerably more mobile, with the suit passively absorbing the user's magic to retain invincibility instead of requiring a charging process. The Nintendo Labo also enhances the user's strength, and its gauntlets can form various tools to aid for many purposes.
* **Divine Spoon**: The Legendary Weapon once wielded by Ivan Rodríguez, the Fourth Emissary. Currently wielded by Nimrod Raven. It appears as a small silver spoon, though its size can be increased. The bowl part of the Spoon's head is able to reflect any magic attack back in numerous attacks with an equal fraction of power of the original attack. The amount of magic that can be reflected is limited by the spoon size, which can be overcome by expanding the spoon's size, at the cost of it becoming heavier and harder to wield.
	+ **Spork of Destruction**: The evolved form of the Divine Spoon. It appears as a dark-coloured spork. Uniquely, the pre-evolution's ability to change size and reflect magic attacks is removed upon evolution. The new power gained by the Spork of Destruction is the ability to render any magic attack that comes in contact with head of the spork to dissolve into pure magic that becomes "edible", allowing the user to consume it and absorb it into themselves. By stabbing the Spork of Destruction into an organism containing magic, the user can extract magic out of them to replenish their own as well.
* **Animal Morphing Sword**: The Legendary Weapon once wielded by Umi Usagi, the Fifth Emissary. Currently wielded by Sydney Smith. A full power, it appears as a double-edged straight sword around ten feet long, with twelve animals faintly carved into the blade's fuller. While used by Sydney, it appeared like an ordinary broadsword. While wielding the blade, the user gains the ability to talk to and understand non-human animals, who also are able to understand the user's native language while under influence of the Legendary Weapon. With the sword, the user can also summon any living animal life form to them without the requirement of a preexisting contract. Furthermore, by seemingly absorbing the Animal Morphing Sword into themselves, the user can freely transform into any animal, no matter if they exist or not, although they will not be able to use any of the sword's other abilities while transformed.
	+ **Blade of Beasts**: The evolved form of the Animal Morphing Sword. It appears as a two-handed curved sabre with the black skull of a draconic creature as its guard. The blade is giant compared to the hilt, with its flat sides having a dark purple hue and carvings of various animals on them, and its edges retaining the same metal used in its devolved form. In addition to abilities from its pre-evolution, the Blade of Beasts allows the user to dominate an animal's will by stabbing it into them once, effectively giving the user complete control over the affected animal's actions.
