Aetherius Aetherweave & Artifact – [Resistance Arsenal]

"In the distant past, a great war shook the stars. We were driven into the shadows... but our fangs remain unbroken. Now, the time for vengeance has come."

The beacon of counterattack ignited by Aetherius Forge. Forged through a history of defeat and exile, this is the "Resistance Arsenal," a state-of-the-art tactical weaponry package built upon the sheer tenacity of the Traditionalists.

This asset is a beautifully rugged gear set that forcefully fuses the "organic" power of nature with the "technology" scavenged from our enemy, the central regime (Illuminate). To stand against the overwhelming power of the Illuminate, we had no choice but to tear away their own technology and sharpen it into our fangs.

(Note: The lore of this asset is built with Aetherius Forge's unique interpretations and expansions, based on the unofficial Avali lore document (PDF) created by passionate fans.)

【Gear Features & Gimmicks】

Revenant Skull HUD

"Fallen brethren, become my eyes once more." An obsessive expanded tactical visor built upon the skull (remains) of a comrade who fell in the past civil war. By connecting cables directly to the bone, it converts external acoustics into visual data projected onto the HUD, achieving an almost taboo "fusion of death and technology." A message to their former ally is carved in Avali script on the surface of the cracked bone. The ominously glowing red vision is proof of the Traditionalists' deep, sorrowful bonds and vengeance—a testament that fallen comrades become their "eyes" to fight alongside them once again.

(Note: The interface text projected on the HUD uses the Avali language, specifically the "Avali scratch" font.) (Note: To use the HUD's UI features, the external asset "IkeHUD" mentioned below must be installed.)

Resistance Cloak

The exterior is traditional "tanned leather" that blends into natural environments. However, the lining is interwoven with "nano-mesh" captured and transplanted from the enemy Illuminate. It functions not just as cloth to ward off the rain and wind, but as tough armor capable of repelling even intense blaster fire from the Illuminate. It is a tactical poncho symbolizing pride, thirst for revenge, and the tenacity to survive.

Resonance Javelin

A tactical spear that resonates with the will of the wielder. At the base of the blade is a "hollowed-out horn" with holes on both sides. When thrown, this horn interferes with the built-in anti-gravity device, intentionally triggering a bug (malfunction). This generates a devastating "Sonic Shockwave" that suppresses the surrounding area with unpredictable and destructive behavior.

Spirit Saber

A limit-breaking saber combining a forced heat exhaust mechanism made from scrap parts with the pulsating "sap of the Spirit Tree."

• Psychokinetic Control: Beyond wielding it in hand, you can use telekinesis for remote retrieval (Force Grab), mid-air levitation, and a sweeping Cyclone Throw.
• Flawless Slash Marks: Advanced magic that reads Poiyomi's Depth Intersection without using any collision boundaries. It carves scorching burn marks into space that stick perfectly to any complex terrain or wall angle.
• Ultimate Ability "Split Force": A pure spatial interference wave unleashed by raising your left hand. Stripping away magic circles and decorations, it directly visualizes overwhelming power by violently warping the space itself and firing it forward.

【Avatar Compatibility】

The weapons and accessories included in this asset (Resonance Javelin, Spirit Saber, Revenant Skull HUD) are NOT limited to a specific avatar. You can equip them to any VRChat avatar you use. Thanks to the custom setup mechanism described below, you can equip these to any avatar—regardless of species or bone structure, be it humanoid or furry—with just simple positioning adjustments. Enhance your favorite avatar with Aetherius Forge's tactical armaments.

[IMPORTANT] Note on the Resistance Cloak

Only the "Resistance Cloak" is a dedicated outfit tailored specifically for the original avatar "Musavali". Please be aware that fitting it onto other avatars will require significant manual mesh adjustments on your end.

【Fully Compatible with All Platforms】

This asset is fully compatible with PCVR, Quest (Android), and iOS environments. Overcoming the strict walls of optimization, we have ensured that the advanced gimmicks and beauty of Aetherius Forge can be fully unleashed on every platform.

【Required Asset (Pre-installation needed)】

To make the Revenant Skull HUD visual interface function properly, you MUST install the external asset "IkeHUD" created by another author. Before importing this asset (Resistance Arsenal) into Unity, please make sure to download IkeHUD from the link below and import it into your project.

【Revolutionary Setup: Complete Entirely in the Scene View】

Despite being a complex gimmick asset, you no longer need to stare down the Hierarchy window. Our custom-developed auxiliary script realizes an incredibly intuitive installation.

1. Import the asset into Unity.
2. Place the prefab directly under your avatar.
3. Click the "transparent red guide" directly in the Scene View to adjust its position, rotation and scale.
4. Upload as is!

(Note: Equipped with a safety mechanism where simply clicking the guide in the Scene View automatically selects the correct parent hierarchy. Because the red guide mesh and the custom script are set to EditorOnly, they are automatically and completely removed when building for VRChat. It is a safe and clean design that has absolutely no impact on your avatar's performance or file size.)

Message from Musashi Aetherius

"To those who strike back from the shadows."

Greetings. I am Musashi Aetherius, master of Aetherius Forge.

The counterattack of the "Traditionalists," once cast into the shadows of history, begins here. The "Resistance Arsenal" is the crystallization of survivors' tenacity—those who, while preserving the beauty of "organic" natural forces, scavenged the cold technology of their enemies (Illuminate) to sharpen their own fangs in order to survive.

A Skull HUD that grants vision through the remains of a fallen comrade, a cloak lined with captured nano-mesh, and a Spirit Saber that bends space itself. These rugged yet refined armaments will bestow upon your avatar the overwhelming narrative of one who has risen from defeat.

Furthermore, to ensure you can grasp this power instantly without being hindered by tedious configurations, we have implemented an innovative, custom setup system that can be completed entirely within the Scene view.

Reclaim your stolen pride, and let these fangs carve out a new era.

The Lore of Aetherius : Aetherweave

Aetherweave is spun from Aether threads and woven into Sacred Geometric patterns by Musashi Aetherius.

Aetherweave is not merely "clothing."

It is a "Second Skin" that defines the Vessel's mode of existence for weaving in roles, attributes, and narratives.

When assigning roles such as Ritual, Combat, Celebration, or Daily Life.

When draping it over your avatar to express individuality through its silhouette.

The moment you slip your arms through the sleeves, the fabric anchors itself as part of your persona. Every fiber connects with your identity, re-knitting itself into a "Re-Harmonic" existence.

The Lore of Aetherius : Artifact

Artifacts are crystallized forms of Aether, forged by Musashi Aetherius through the logic of Sacred Geometry.

An Artifact is not merely a tool. It is a "Focal Point" that grants Will and Function to a Vessel, serving as a key to physically interfere with the world.

・When you integrate it as a key item in a game.

・When you equip it in VRChat to unleash effects or magic.

・When you place it as a lore piece to decorate your stream.

At that moment, the silent Artifact begins to resonate with your environment. The inorganic object becomes part of the story, functioning as a "Re-Harmonic" element.
