## God Eater
A traveling enforcer walks by a group of merchants traveling, ensnaring their attention. They see an average looking fellow with an above average sized weapon and donned with a mysterious piece of jewelry. It looks as though a giant should be holding the weapon instead of this individual. The merchants continue on with there journey still gossiping and guessing as to how he wields such a large weapon with ease. Once they arrive to their destination, they are stunned to see that it is being raided by thieves and mercenaries. As the merchants try to help they are quickly pinned and held down as a large brute walks towards them. The brute begins to swing his axe as a man drops from the sky and whirls a large blade in a circle and knocks them all away. He takes a single step and leaps a great distance and cleaves more men ransacking the city. In mere minutes the town is clear of all those stealing and pillaging.

### Adaptable Weapon
In the hills of a secluded valley, a hunter hides and watches as a women fights with blood-thirsty dire wolves. Going blow for blow with the great beasts,she slams one with extreme force knocking it to the ground. As she turns to face the remaining wolves, her weapon changes into a cannon and she takes aim. As the creatures lunge towards her she fires a shot which explodes on impact, injuring one of the wolves. Satisfied with the result, she begins firing again. Missing two shots she runs out of ammo as the last wolf circles her. Her cannon transforms again, this time into what can only be described as a dragon's head and within an instant it bites the wolf and rips a chunk out of it. Retreating into the weapon, the cannon glows and the woman fires a final shot and signals to the hunter that the area is safe.
```
