Silver Gauntlet

You possess an augmented or inhuman body.
Used by Ray, Created by Midnighzs.
(Your specific augmentation must be physically visible in some way, but it does not need to make you appear outwardly monstrous or socially unacceptable. )

Yeah, that’s right—I fire silver needles from my palm. Custom tech, not some off-the-shelf gadget. Designed it myself because, let’s face it, traditional weapons are predictable. Predictability gets you killed. These needles? Fast, silent, precise. Like me. Coated in a special alloy—silver core, hollow tips, adaptable for toxins if needed. They don’t just stop threats; they erase them.

Why silver? Because you never know what’s out there. People, sure—but sometimes it’s not just people. I’ve seen things that’d make you question reality. Silver works on more than flesh, trust me.

The mechanism’s built into a reinforced gauntlet under my sleeve—pressure-triggered, no external tells. Perfect for when things go south fast. No fumbling, no hesitation. One flick of the wrist, and the problem’s solved.

Paranoid? Maybe. Prepared? Absolutely. That’s the difference between walking away from a job and getting carried out in a bag.

The arm's circulatory system has been replaced with roots that extend into the blood vessels in the left shoulder and take the needed nutrients from the bloodstream. A side effect of this is the darkening of the blood in the rest of the body as tannins are added into it resulting in a dark reddish brown color. The nervous system has been replaced with a mycelium which fuses with the nervous system in the shoulder and allows the arm to be controlled as normal. The flesh and skin are no more having completely turned to wood and the bone has been replaced with oaken heartwood and covered in patches of green moss and white mushrooms.
