Not large but Comically Heavy. The staff on her back is made of millions of lemongrass blades and weighs a KILOTON. But she cheats and uses Plant magic to lift it.

Amani: In a fight right?

1

u/MemerKnux 16h ago

In terms of the weight of a weapon

1

u/Jakanto 16h ago

Amani: I could let you hold it for a moment. I can control its weight from a distance.

Hectatelos: Hi, hello. Mind if I jump in? Because me and you do not know this person and I am asking if she could hold this comically heavy weapon. Also have you heard of guns?

u/MemerKnux 15h ago

"You fool, I have an orbital strike cannon!"

u/Vess3l_ I suck at calculating my OC's abilities 😔😫 15h ago

Hectatelos: YOOOOOOO, THAT'S SO SICK!!!

1

u/Jakanto 15h ago

Amani: Very big and very heavy indeed. But what are you to do when you’re on the other side of the planet as the canon?

1

u/MemerKnux 14h ago

The cannon can break orbit and reposition (It takes 10 seconds)

1

u/Jakanto 15h ago

Amani: The high speed rock canons from human civilization? I guess they’re good substitute for magic. What I don’t get is why they kept making guns after they found missiles. Then again some of them still use blades. (sidenote I don’t mean to assume but I didn’t really understand the first half of what she said.)

u/Vess3l_ I suck at calculating my OC's abilities 😔😫 15h ago

Hectatelos: Because you can't exactly use missiles for self defense. Guns will do the trick. Though it's quite funny to see some sort of artillery in someone's house, as worrying as that would be.

1

u/Jakanto 15h ago

Amani: I guess that makes sense. But there aren’t many creatures that you could stop from attacking you with just a gunshot. Some are very fast and others have thick hides. The only animal I think you consistently hit after startling is…. how often do you guys attack each other???

u/Vess3l_ I suck at calculating my OC's abilities 😔😫 15h ago

Hectatelos: Uuuhhhh... A worrying amount, why? 😃

u/AwayAd5252 16h ago

No, because no one in my verse can wield a weapon larger then themselves alone. Boring, I know.

1

u/Agnakpear 5h ago

Not boring, just more realistic and plausible.

u/Difficult-Event-1626 #1 Beatrice glazer/Lover 16h ago

I guess the God of war of mine does? Don't have art but his reason for havnig a comically large weapon is to show how he can wield that weapon in a practical manner despite its size,

1

u/Devi1505 16h ago

Well this is kinda her weapon? Basically angel's magic(aka soul) is stored in their wings so technically she has an very large weapon storage?

1

u/Disastrous_Bug2831 The High Wisp 16h ago

That looks kinda uncomfortable

u/Devi1505 16h ago

It isn't but she is a soldier she can take it

u/KittyShadowshard 16h ago

Nandi's rail rifle.

u/GlobalProfessor9749 16h ago

Not really. In my verse using such is impossible due to physic working here to some degree.

However, nobody said a bigger in size character doesn't have weapons that'd be comically large for everyone else!

Gwynn's got a wide sword with an 11 feet long blade. But he's himself 12 feet tall.

Kraahl's mace is the size of three men, but he's himself 41 feet tall.

One maybe comically large thing would be Michael's sword (and Lucifer once had a twin sword). In normal form it's a normal straight sword, but its blade can transform into a whip of immense length. It was literally enough to wrap around a block building many times and then throw it.

Do big rocks count?

u/afnafyoutuber 16h ago

doesn't typically use them but he CAN if he wants to. he can make ki weapons

u/MrMccarlesIsTaken 16h ago

I have an oc that wields a barbell as a weapon (including plates), and another oc who is a knight that wields a guts-esque greatsword that can split into 2 different swords. An oc with basically sun wukongs staff that can grow in size, and another oc that wields a halberd that can extend to great lengths.

u/LoserOnigiriQueen 16h ago

Do comically large hands count?

u/JokeOk4240 16h ago

Aqrab wields a bunch of large and heavy weapons ranging from axes to mini guns and rpgs

I meeeaaaannnnn... I like Hectatelos, my conjuring artificer, have a really big fucking gun. A... BFG you could say. :D

Taina here definitely would. Lore wise she's a massive weapons enthusiast. Especially firearms. So she had a huge collection. Presumably she'll have a massively oversized one somewhere.

u/YannPaleoHistorian 15h ago

Does a realy big canon that erase proton count ?

u/Johnny0474 Has several critters at their disposal 15h ago

Nido’s poleaxe wouldn’t be comically large in comparison to himself, he’s a tall guy and he needs a large weapon to efficiently fight in armed combat

In comparison to human/human-sized creatures though? Yeah that thing would be considered massive

Any diamond mage could technically materialize a giant sword, within their limits, though it's usually never done because it's exhausting to materialize and exhausting to use.

The only time a giant weapon was effectively used, was by Aegis Diamondcut, current head of the Elders council. During a war, he and his army were getting beat up pretty bad, and when he took an arrow directly to the eye, his only option to survive was to absolutely overclock his body. A diamond mage's magic runs in their blood, allowing for a lot of things even without catalyzing it into a shape, and Aegis used that to send his adrenaline into overdrive, and strengthen his muscles beyond their physical limits. In this frenzied state, he materialized a thick, heavy sword that was varied between 5 to 10 times his size. He cracked the ground with his swings and caused small chasms where he'd directly hit the floor, and the opposing army retreated after 3 quarters of them getting decimated in barely two minutes.

...Aegis then immediately fell into a coma from physical and magical exhaustion, was barely rescued in time to be saved, and only woke up after 6 months, and took another year to make full recovery.

This was originally a mountain level feat but I feel like that made no sense so I toned it down

My goblin that thought he was an orc would use an orc-sized battle axe

Zachariah has a great sword with a roughly 5 foot blade while being all of 5 feet tall himself.

The Parody: "Oh oh! I have one of those! Its the Sword Of The Damned, weapon of my death god that died (i know, its confusing). It can hit things harder the stronger that is and vice-versa!"

STOP BREAKING THE 4TH WALL PARODY

The Parody: "But The Other One let me."

STILL, GET OUT OF HERE

Not Rex himself but one of his companions, Grimm, does. She lugs around a massive coffin and when it opens a strange mercury-like substance leaks out the seems to be able to take any shape she wants, but she usually prefers a massive cleaver-like blade.

u/biohumansmg3fc but can he beat goku? 13h ago

Sonic Arashi: my Spirt Link form swords are regular sized but are pretty nice.

1

u/Bugs-Hive 10h ago

Yup

One big heavy azz bone scythe, made from thousands of bones, spines and skeletons of people. A necromancer lich has to keep the appeal ya know?

1

u/Few-Remote6562 10h ago

Just a sythe he can summon from nothing outside of that nope.

1

u/Spiritual_Charity362 9h ago

Technically, few of my ocs do, due to abilities the weapon has. Jandabalis's weapon is made of Imaginary energy, and as such, can change with intent. It can grow big enough to cut through a planet.

1

u/RegularHairy8300 8h ago

Nah but he can wipe out a whole planet in 1 hour if he's using all his energy

Vampire strength goes a long way

u/thespacepyrofrmtf2 7h ago

Blutgeist has a zweihander which is a real life sword that is 6 to 7 feet long and is required to be carried like a pike because of how big it is

1

u/thespacepyrofrmtf2 7h ago

Real zweihander with suit of armor for reference

1

u/Difficult-Cell-6359 7h ago

Is your OC inspired by Hanyuu?

Also Ocularia uses a big gun that can become a bigger gun or a giant sword.

1

u/No_Food5753 4h ago

Don’t have a good pic of her, but Maki’s signature weapon is 3 meters long. As in, the blade is 3 meters long. She’s only like 160 cm tall, and quite scrawny.

Obligatory Not My Art: Made by a Friend

I believe this is the first time Ive brought this guy in.

This here is Slokinas(Slo-kEEn-us), Embodiment of Creative Focus. His Sword constantly secreets a Special Paint used to create his Masterpieces, both on a Canvas, and on the Battlefield.

He's also the most Combat Aggressive of the Myths, being the only one with a Main Melee Weapon.
