Description

An Claidheamh Soluis, the evil bane that Spica wield in fiction. ACS was concepted back in 1999 and its name was "Emerald Solaice". This weapon's concept is nearly as old as the story itself. And has undergone several revampment:
Version 1 (Emerald Solaice) ~ 1999
Version 2 (Emerald Solaice) ~ 2005
Version 3 (An Claidheamh Soluis) ~ 2006

Emerald Solaice is a hybrid between a cannon and a zweihander. Since the rename, the cannon was removed, but ACS retains cannon-like ability to shoot projectiles. Wielder of ACS can generate a pseudo-magic orb from the sword and plunge it so it shoots straight to the target. Previously this attack was called "Emerald Cannon", but now "Tír na nÓg".

The central crystal formation keeps rotating in any axis. These crystals are ethereal and not affected by solid things.

Along with this evil bane sword, there's another 3 devil arms that was forged from the mystical ore Runicanite: An Luisne, An Coire Ansic, and An Lia Fail. Four of them are referred as the "Four Treasures". Spica can utilize all 4 of them to gain her devil form.

Entry for *junkauge's Master of Weapon contest.

The ACS was the first weapon that can represent myself beside the Fiction (another weapon name, which concept come much much later):
- Asymmetrical design means "no to genericity". I dislike genericity, except for making funny events :XD:
- Segmented design means "no fixed style". I will keep evolving my style.
- Time crystal means "timeless". I don't believe that fictions are bound by age. Fictions are timeless, thus anyone can read it.


Phew! Quite a long explaination here ^_^
Final note: Although ACS resembles Siegfried's Soul Calibur in Soul Calibur III much, it is not based or inspired by it. I played Soul Calibur III in 2007 and ACS's form concept was finalized in 2006.
