Warframe Concept: Justiciar, the Invisible Hand
General Ability: Advanced telekinesis.
Passive - Increase credit pickup per enemy killed with Long Arm and Of The Market, or while utilizing the effect of Turncoat.
Turncoat - The ability to "blend in" amongst any faction, barring Narmer. This includes not being attacked by enemies, even while in plain sight, and unique enemy voicelines regarding the Warframe.
Long Arm - Extends pickup radius in accordance with a highly extended melee range, by floating melee weapons through the air to slice, dice, and smash enemies. The Warframe can only walk and run while using this ability.
Of The Market - Using telekinesis, pick up pickups and throw them at enemies for devastating damage. Including Credits, nav coordinates, and resources, alongside ammo boxes and even dropped weapons and corpses.
Hand of Justice - Mark an enemy for execution. If killed using other abilities, gain temporary armor, energy, and health in accordance with how elite said enemy is.
Summary: Hail the Justiciar, the long arm of the invisible hand, of the market. Legend has it that before Zanuka, before any other Corpus Warframe project, Alad V did something awful in the pursuit of reverse engineering and bettering Warframes for Corpus use. Use the Invisible hand to turn your foes own confusion against them. Never run out of uses for dropped ammo crates. Execute the justice within us all.
Background:
"The Infestation. A marvel isn't it? Just one infection, and it spreads like a wildfire, overriding the mechanical and flesh alike… Or at least, that's how it usually goes. See, before the Infestation, before all of that, there was only the Helminth. The say that's what created the Warframes, afterall, correct? Anyways, I digress. The point is that wisdom is gained through suffering, and tonight, I intend to make you very, very… wise." ~ Alad V
The output of the Justiciar Project was flawed. The input: A single, healthy male test subject. His family's debts would be paid off entirely if he agreed, so Alad V promised, and to his credit, he did deliver. But not before the helminth sapped away everything that the test subject was, leaving an insane husk to be just barely controlled by void-touched individuals in Corpus possession.
The Justiciar was at first hideous, but after careful molding of the Helminth (torture) at the hands of Alad V's crew, it began to take on a more aesthetically pleasing shape.
Now? Covered from head to toe in drapped cloths and veils, only the glowing bits and the outline of it remain 'visible', a testament to how far it has fallen out of Corpus' hands, and its growing personalization. Eventually, the void-touched individuals I mentioned staged an escape, nearly killing Alad V.
After that? There was no trace of them. Apparently, they had been rescued, alongside the Justiciar, by a Tenno. The experiment was a resounding failure, and set Alad V back quite a bit, or so the story goes.
Appearance: With a large, corpus-inspired head, molded and shaped into something similar to the form of common corpus helms, this warframe is draped in cloths and veils, concealing it's overall form. Not because it's horrifying or too disgusting to view, but because it doesn't want to be viewed as the corpus enforcer it once was. Still, the Invisible Hand of the Market it is, and it acts as judge, jury, and executioner to its former masters and all those that threaten the stability of everything. The cloth and veils are pulled tightly with coils and rope, outlining the form everywhere but it's head, where heavily draped veils refuse to let its former allegiance shine through.
Signature Weapons:
Red Hand - A colossal, two-handed blade with a squared off tip. Energy pulses through the center, and crackles with regularity across the surface of the blade. It is like an old-fashioned executioner's sword, only designed by the corpus. The hilt actually functions as a storage for the batteries used to power it. Deals high amounts of Electricity and Slash damage, while also short-circuiting shields. When wielded by Justiciar, it deals cold damage, combining to create an effect of magnetization.
Dead Hand - A particle disintigration beam inspired by the Atomos of Grineer fame, this corpus-designed beauty can fit perfectly around the hand of any Warframe, but especially so for the one it was meant to be wielded by. However, it is now very infested, and deals high corrosive damage, spewing acid from the giant tumor that now covers it. Say thanks to the Helminth!
Dread Hand - A corpus anti-gravity tool, used in high-gravity environments. This weapon has been reverse-engineered to increase the gravity of objects and people, typically crushing them violently.
