So I've got a player who has a Warforged Warblade in my campaign. He kinda liked the idea of using parts of body as weapons, but didn't want to go with unarmed. He's only played one session with this character so far, and he's been using a Falchion so far.
So, I was thinking, maybe soon he can find an "upgrade" to his body? If he installs it, it'll replace one of his existing body enhancements (he took the damage reduction feat many, many times) and it'll allow him to retract his hand and extend a blade of some sort as a move action (or as part of movement), or maybe he can just use a move action to warp his entire forearm into a blade. This built-in weaponry can be upgraded with the appropriate materials with costs as described in the Ancestral Relic feat. As a bonus, he can't be disarmed, but his arm can be sundered (which is why the upgrade will be made of Aurorum so he can reform the arm if needed).
The mental picture of a warforged walking towards an enemy while one of his arms warps and extends into a glowing, Brilliant Energy blade of some sort is just awesome. Or maybe the blade extends in the way the Halo 2 energy sword does. What do you guys think of this? Cool fluff for Ancestral Relic?
