[✗] [Invention Lore] Musin Wingsuits

[Pintape 116]

Musin Wingsuits

Why Musin? The simple answer is that Musin have an extremely low muscle mass, and therefore a low weight comparative to their body.

 

Description

     Musin Wingsuits are designed to give the user the ability to glide. Most Musin or people with some experience can create them. The 'wings' are created out of fabrics or any material available that is viable. The material is double layered, and is sealed on the outsides. The first layer of the wing (The 'first' being the one facing the ground) is punctured in a specific array carefully that allows for air to be trapped within the wing and slow downward movement. The wings are attached directly to leather which can be strapped around a leg or arm. The leather should cover as much surface area as possible, only leaving the knees, elbows, or any points that need to move uncovered. For the midsection of the body, a piece of wood or hardened leather can be used to bind the wings to the body, thus increasing the surface area that the wings are connected to. The purpose of this is to catch the air as you descend, slowing down your speed, and transferring that into forward movement. It is imperative that there is little spacing between the body and the wings. 

     A successful wingsuit would also boast fabric in between the legs, helping to steer and glide better. The fabric between the legs of the user would not have the same holes as the wings, and would be slightly looser than the primary wings. The purpose of this is to allow slightly more air to escape through the secondary wings, and propel you forward.

 

Usage

     Putting on the wingsuits depends on the model. The most sensical option would have whatever holds the wing to your body strap on with laces like a boot or belt straps. A good order for equipping the suit and it’s parts would go as such: main body, upper legs, lower legs, lower arms, and upper arms. Walking with the suit on is somewhat awkward. It would not allow for a full range of motion with your legs, but not restrict it entirely. The secondary wings would make it easy to trip on terrain other than flat. The loosely hanging fabric (if used) would make it easy for it to get snagged on. In general, the suit would be quite uncomfortable and annoying for long term use.

 

Redlines

• Wingsuits DO NOT allow the user to fly. ONLY GLIDE.

• Wingsuits CANNOT be used to reach higher locations (there are exceptions).

• Users that are not considered light cannot use this invention. It simply does not make sense.

  • The heavier, the more you will fall instead of glide.

Extra Notes

     Wingsuits could possibly be used for any race, though I believe it’s the most viable with Musin with the current technology developed in the world of LOTC (there could be much more I do not know about, but I am going off of what I see).

Easier to look at, and a bit more clarification.

Main issue with this piece is it breaks techlock and also has issues with mechanical implementation. There are no plans at all to introduce Elytras onto the server in the case of PvP or otherwise. It's not a bad piece, it's just simply unfeasible and also creating mobile flight (which breaches what we regard as necessary for techlock.)
