You know, the inspiration behind the special electric blade I designed? Serrated blade on one side, normal blade on the other, blade literally splits down the middle, the two points clashing at the tips produce the sparks which shoot from the blade, that thing?
Well, this one has jewelry on it. I've encountered this one before, but not often, and I haven't really thought much of using it...until now. See, one of the main things which makes the electric blade such a powerful weapon is that, in a Quincy-like way, it can draw energy from its surroundings into the weapon, and then discharge it. (This is, of course, not at all an ability unique to the weapon in any setting I've had it in, with it being a virtual necessity in most stories, actually.) If the surrounding area has a correspondence to the blade, then there's bonus energy absorbed.
Well, today I had the thought that the white gem on there could be a focal point to draw even more energy in than normal...and also, to make it even better, maybe even turn a dual-elemental weapon into a triple-elemental weapon: darkness, light, and energy, for a rather painful, super-powerful bolt.
Which would make a fine second upgrade to Black Lightning's Storm Reign, and I know just the spot to give it to him!
Another thing I found was, yesterday, in randomly browsing...someone having made a drawing of Ruby. I had absolutely no knowledge of this. It was made six months ago, and I was pleasantly surprised to stumble across it, especially since I had no awareness of it prior to last night. If I get permission from the artist to show it off, then I'll put it on Red Hood Rider's main site's (that is, ComicFury) fanart page so you can see it. Was rather impressed at what they did especially given that at the time, there were basically no colored pictures of Ruby.
