for the Noble Arm form I'd prefer if it was a solid object that can be held by the user, so pure "fire" doesn't really work. Loose gunpowder isn't a great weapon either but it may work better, especially if it's more of a powder horn or a charge/cartridge than loose gunpowder.
A number of things make Nil doze off, long briefings being one of them, fortunately she found it easier to follow Noel than the Admiral last time. Or at least make an attempt to follow, Nil had no idea what things like War hawks, US Congress or red flag all meant, but she didn’t question it.
Sounded important. While trying to figure out the relevancy of that, Nil observed the pictures on screen, the riverside city being a welcoming change from the tiny atoll they are currently on.
As the Lieutenant finished his talk, Nil sat a bit more comfortably, as if finally understanding their assignment was mitigating risks and those were clear orders and needed no further discussion.
Nil put on her new earmuffs, she did consider keeping a collection given how easily they broke in the recent missions, but failed where or how to buy them so the idea got thrown out that same day. Slowly she started nodding with her head, obviously trying to imitate headbanging she might have seen these past days, but listening to blissful silence instead, surely no one would enjoy putting loud rock music on their ears.
Glancing around she recognised a few faces and some others were rather new, to this moment trying to figure out what Berto and Aoi are all about.
Striding along, Nil found out the island had little to offer outside the QRS installations and the sandy beaches, even then space was at some points too stringent for long continuous sand-filled beaches. The shores best fit for relaxation are of course where everyone goes, even at a distance you can see people grouping and interacting.
Observing the beautiful Panganiban reef with a flat, obstacle-free view one thing occupied her mind, thirst, smart people would have brought water for their long walk but Nil’s name was Nil so she brought none. Outside the main area near the airplane runway and docks there were just more docks, unfinished projects, less people hanging around and a boring load of nothing.
Nil turned around and started to go back, satisfied but also in part defeated, after failing to get to the end point of the island.
People are like pipe bombs, spontaneous, explosive and I’m bad with analogies

Bio: Coming from humble origins, Aurora’s civilian life would seem rather ordinary and lacking the lasting truma of less fortunate Arms Masters, a tendency that she is privy to maintain. Aurora quickly learned to drive and entered the workforce, rotating various jobs due to monetary issues.
Kaltrop awakened 14 months before the beginning of the ASEAN War, since then Aurora quickly joined the Philippine Logistic Service, aware of the agevolations that Arms Masters receive. She did in fact rank up as a Junior NCO in and became a specialist in ordnance and supply maintenance, life was starting to go smoothly.
That’s until the fire nation attacked Chinese started a war. Stretched thin and up against one of the largest army of Arms Masters in the world, how could the Philippines hold out in a prolonged war? A letter of promotion arrived to Aurora, a promotion as Staff Sergeant in the Special Forces... promotion my ass.
Now relocated to Baguio City, going from driving a forklift, to inspecting weapons and now to a frontline as a Senior NCO, all in roughly a year. At least life is not boring.
Current Goal: Fulfill her duties, and not die in the process.
