Message: <blockquote data-quote="JConstantine" data-source="post: 9665131" data-attributes="member: 7052620">I've been thinking about how to model the Green Destiny from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (and it's sequel, Sword of Destiny) in RBRB. It's a jian, so that's the obvious place to start. However, at several points throughout the movie, it's described as fast, so I'm thinking it'd be appropriate to replace the jian's standard Muscle with Speed, like Liquid Swords.The Green Destiny is also shown to cut through just about anything, so I figured I take inspiration from <a href="https://thebedrockblog.blogspot.com/2025/03/the-qiwu-sword-rbrb.html" target="_blank">The Qiwu Sword</a>.Lastly, it's described as being "seven tenths of an inch thick and crafted 400 years ago using techniques lost to time". CT,HD is set during the Qing dynasty, which started in 1644, so that would put it's creation in the mid-1200s at the earliest, which would be the tail end of the Song dynasty. And it just so happens that RBRB is hinted to be set during that exact period.So what I've got so far is:The Green Destiny This exquisitely crafted jian has a blade that appears to be inlaid with jade and is decorated with a finely sculpted jade guard. The techniques used to make it are unknown. It does Speed + 1d10 damage, grants a +1d10 bonus to attacks and inflicts one extra wound on a Total Success. It is also capable of cutting through inanimate objects and structures with ease, including weapons. Should anyone attempt to parry the sword, there is a 5 in 10 chance that the Green Destiny will cut through the object and the attack resolved as normal.[USER=85555]@Bedrockgames[/USER] Thoughts?</blockquote>
