<!--Masamune is presumed to have supplied the Sentai Elite with their armor and weapons: | |||
Interlude 22.y said: | |||
The Sentai joined him, adding their ranged fire to his. They had a man who mass produced their armor and weapons, each with wrist-mounted laser guns, rifles at their hips. Sixteen or seventeen of them opened fire with both weapons at the same time | |||
Masamune helped create the Dragon's Teeth, combat engines and top of the line gear for Protectorate and Wards members: | |||
Sting 26.02 said: | |||
I could see Narwhal, standing off to one side, two of the Dragon’s Teeth flanking her. Masamune wasn’t present, but from what I knew of the guy, he wasn’t even close to being a front-lines combatant. They’d recruited him from the ruined area of Japan, a somewhat crazed hermit, and gave him work in figuring out how to mass produce their stuff without the maintenance issues snowballing out of control, like tinker tech tended to do in large quantities. | |||
Thanks to him, they had the Dragon’s Teeth, they had the combat engines and they had top of the line gear for various members of the Protectorate and Wards. | |||
Masamune staring down Black Kaze: | |||
Extinction 27.3 said: | |||
I watched as Masamune stepped away from Defiant and the Guild members to approach Black Kaze. | |||
They stood there for a moment, inside each other’s personal space, still but for the reflexive opening and closing of Black Kaze’s hand. | |||
Masamune returned to the cluster of Guild, and Black Kaze followed, directly behind him, head bowed a little. | |||
A tinker-tech knife that Masamune made spares of: | |||
Venom 29.3 said: | |||
I saw one of the switches, then took hold of the knife. | |||
“Keep it away from heat. If the growths start knuckling together, then it’s probably clogged at the air intake. You can unscrew the cap at the butt of the knife and access the air intake there. Bake it at roughly five hundred degrees to clear it, then thoroughly vacuum. Pay attention to how long it takes the growths to hit maximum length… you’ll know because the colors at the ends are a lighter gray. Three point seven seconds is the optimum time. If it takes shorter then you’ll know something’s wrong with-“ | |||
“The knife won’t degrade too much in the next day,” Dragon said. “And we have spares, thanks to Masamune.”https://www.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/6izab2/any_info_onfree_tinkers/djbc11r/--> | |||
