Move Approval V
Hook Shield (1500)
Requires: Physical, Reach, Remote Control, Area Shield
1-Handed Shield Manifest
This shield takes five seconds to manifest and occupies one hand, both during manifesting and while equipped, meaning no two-handed spells or items can be used. This is a relatively powerful shield, meaning it is quite fatiguing and is rarely ever used in rapid succession. During the manifest time, he is not too burdened and can preform combat maneuvers fairly easily with the unoccupied hand.

The Hook Shield is primarily a shield, covering the back of the forearm and hand much like a half-gauntlet plating. This shield is rather small, compared to some of his others, and is often used for its utility purpose; the hook. This hook is a simple crescent shape that extends from the hand. The hook is normally dulled and is used for tripping. With a flick of his wrist, the hook can change directions, either extending below his pinky or above his thumb. The transition takes a second, as the hook physically rotates from one side to another. This is great for controlling an opponent, hooking hands or feet for tripping or general tom foolery.

Another handy utility is that the hook can be forcefully ejected from the gauntlet, extending via energy beam. This beam can extend up to 5 meters as if thrown. Stein can also charge the beam, extending its range by ten meters for every three seconds. The launching aspect is not very taxing, and has a maximum range of fifty meters.. He can pull the hook back with his full strength. If it hooks an object he cannot pull, Stein is instead pulled to whatever is hooked. Depending on the weight, pulling himself or an object nearly as heavy as him can be quite taxing, but small objects are relatively easy to retrieve. Every hero needs a grappling hook!

When only extending the base five meters, segments of the gauntlet extend with the energy beam, offering a segmented shield effect. Using this in combat is basically like using a whip, it takes a bit more concentration than swinging a sword and can be a bit more unruly and difficult to use. When not extended, it is simpler and does not suffer the complexities of whip-physics.

Cost breakdown
300 - Shield
300 - Hook
300 - Hook placement
300 - Extend-o-Hook
300 - Grappling Hook

I'm not sure if I priced this right, that's is what I'm basing it on. XD
