Allyn Grav'nost-Metalworking and- -Magitek-
-Extraordinaire-
Making you shinier, deadlier and classier with style and gusto!
Are you tired of being shot at?
Is your armor not enough to handle those nasty and cheap Garlean gunblades?
Do you get upset when facing magitek armor?
Are your weapons either not punching through this guy's defenses or just getting all wrecked after you take it down?
Does your head hurt when you find ancient magitek terminals?
It's not like these things come with handy manuals or, you know, physical interfaces.
YOU NEED NOT WORRY ANYMORE!
With my skills and expertise, you will just forget about all those issues and keep on fighting the good fight against the aetherically-challenged! Forging, reforging, replating, repainting... all your typical metalworking problems are mine to solve. Your blades will cut deeper, your armor will be harder and feel lighter, your gunblades will blast away with true grit, and if your magicky staff or wand looks lackluster, I can make it shine brighter than a house made of auracite. On fire. At noon.
I allacan deal with Allagan tech!
Years of study under the tutelage of the best magitek experts in the prestigious Garlond Ironworks have allowed me to not only understand the modern, but also the ancient, which is ironically more modern than the modern. So, a post-pre-modern concept, if you will.
Terminals, nodes, weapons and other types of Allagan tech are my main field of study. If your fleshy parts are in need of an upgrade (or if you lost them somehow), let's see what a magitek implant can do for you! Eyes, arms, legs; you name it, I can do it. Other bits at your discretion.
What are you waiting for?
If you are seeing this, then it means I gave it you, so just pearl me up and let's have a chat. My services are always ready to be provided! So, what else do you need? Let's unravel all magitek mysteries of the futuristically ancient, and anciently futuristic, Allagan people (and their knock-off version, the Garleans)!

Distinguinshing Marks
- Intricate patterns tattooed on arms, back and legs, representing the complex circuitry of Allagan technology. For the aetherically sensitive, the markings pulse with aetherflow.
- Her eyes have a tinge of artificiality to them, especially at close observation and under strong lighting. She's not afraid to tap them and show they're implants.
- Fashion sense always leaning towards the practical or the more progressive styles, particularly leather and metal bits. If the Ishgardians scoff, then she's doing it right.
- Rides an advanced two-wheeled magitek vehicle, powered by aether, which she is proud to say she made it herself from the hull of an old Allagan aircraft.
- Carries an activated tomestone, usually for pictures or for listening to Goblin metal.
RP Hooks
- Magitek Support - You have need of someone specialized in magitek, whether Allagan or Allagan-based, to aid with research, containment, replication, implantation or destruction.
- Firing up the forge - You require metallurgical work of a more refined kind, for weapons or armor that utilize some sort of magitek enhancement, or at the very least need to be crafted at a high level of quality.
- Ironworks works well - You are, or have been, an employee at Garlond Ironworks and either have met Gravy when she was there, or have heard of her. Not many Duskwights are interested in advanced technology.
- Snitchhiking down the Shroud - If you are familiar with law enforcement in the South Shroud, you might be aware of a certain Allynette Guerrevinous, who snitched on a Redbelly Wasp ambush on a merchant caravan, before running away for good, around 10 years ago.
- Snitches get stitches - Perhaps you are a member of the Redbelly Wasps, or another of the South Shroud criminal gangs, and are not too keen on seeing that the little Dusky snitch is alive and kicking.
PORTFOLIO
A sample of Gravy's magitek constructions.
DS-P/03 "Iconoclast"
A hybrid weapon based off of Allagan relics and Eorzean weaponry, the Iconoclast can use the wielder's own aether to fire "magical" projectiles or beams. It also contains a chamber holding six rounds - each one capable of being aetherically charged for diverse effects.
CB/GB-Hro4 "Blacktrigger"
An innovative model combining the Hrothgar gunblade style, Garlean ingenuity and Allagan circuitry. The inner workings of the weapon are all aetherically charged, following intricate patterns of old Bozjan make - their "lost arts". With the proper application of aether, different effects can be produced without the need for expending cartridges - which are mainly Garlean-style high explosive rounds.
DoB/FS "Surgeon"
Similarly to the "Blacktrigger", this Doman-style sword has a hidden circuit mesh infused with aether - fire-aspected only in this model. This allows the blade to heat up to the point where cutting flesh and even metal is a simple, and quite precise, job. Hence it's unofficial nickname.
LAllag//F-type "War-machina"
A reconstructed powered suit of armor from the Late Allagan period. Though heavy by itself, its joints are all powered and capable of holding its own weight, allowing for agile movement despite the bulk. The extremely adaptive structure of the suit allows for a plethora of different add-ons. Standard issue includes:
- magnetic gauntlets and boots
- aether-powered energy field
- anti-grav thrusters
- multiple tactical weapon hardpoints
Exo/LA-Bp2 Prosthetic Arm
A very common request - either to replace lost limbs or as an upgrade - this model of prosthetic arm comes with several enhancements over standard Ironworks or Garlean types. Frictionless joint bearings, servo-actuated control system, axial-drive motors to increase mobility and strength, among others. Fully adaptable to aether manipulation, so as to allow spellcasting or other forms of aetherical use, as well as non-standard energy sources - Void included.
