Whips: Alternate weapons for Infernal Supernatural

rabenschwinge

For the time being, one cannot choose any weapon using the power set "Infernal Supernatural", you always get a chain as a weapon when you choose that power set. I would like if there were some more options, particularly whips, though spiked chains, barb wire and variations of the chains might be a possibility, too.

Note that this does not mean that the whip would have to behave any different than the chain does now, the animation, the length and the physics could remain exactly the same as it is, only the look would be slightly different. While the sound would ideally be a little different, that would be an optional enhancement. Better to have a whip that sounds like a chain than no whip at all.

Here is a example from popular media that illustrates the concept. The Balrog in The Lord of the Rings:

Unlike in the video it would have to be a physical, single ended bull whip. Given the option to colour it and the already existing option to colour the particle effect of the respective powers, it would not make much of a difference however.

I am sure that there are quite a few players who would be willing to spend zen on this. Not just for their characters, but for their Nemeses, too.

While I would probably never use it myself, I support this idea!
