[OOC][Brainstorming] Intelligent Devices for non-"Lyrical Nanoha" mages

[Labster]

Just did a rewatch of the first two seasons of Lyrical Nanoha. I'm starting to think that maybe Shaoran needs an intelligent device. A lot of his magic relies on using ofuda as the focus, which is a little limiting. Just having a device to handle the magic circles would be useful, and maybe allow a bit more in terms of ranged attacks for him. Sword shaped, of course.

One can argue that Sakura's magic also uses ofuda as a focus, but her cards are a little more special, probably closer to familiars than anything else. Not seeing how a device would be all that useful for her. Even her Shield card is better than Round Shield.

How different is a linker core than a pure heart crystal? Asking for a friend.

Perhaps a plasma beam instead of a laser? After all, that’s pretty much what lightning is: plasmafied atmosphere.

Yeah, huh, Railgun's power seems to be based around electrons more than photons. As amusing as it would be for her to do a Starlight Breaker, that seems like a Level 6 power for her.
