Weapons (Tokyo Ghoul Supplement)

Quinque

A quinque is a weapon manufactured from a ghoul's kakuhou used by CCG ghoul investigators. In order to function, the quinque emits electrical signals that stimulate the kakuhou, to release its RC cells, and the users nervous system, to control the kakuhou. They can be made into some type of melee or ranged weapon, but most retain a few characteristics from the original kagune. In contrast to kagune, quinque cannot change shape nor store or absorb Rc cells other than what was harvested from the ghoul it was made from. Preceding the quinque, the CCG had been using firearms to combat ghouls and, needing a more efficient tool, they began intensive research that resulted in the creation of the first quinque. Made solely to exterminate ghouls, quinques were considered the new generation of technology, promptly and effectively raising the extermination rate. Ghoul investigators transport them in bags or suitcases to store the kakuhou. Some investigators are known to collect quinque and others aspire to master their use. To attain a quinque, an investigator must first confirm their target's Rc type before exterminating them. Afterwards, it is common to name the quinque from the ghoul's name or alias (e.g., Noyama).

Special Quinque Types

Chimera Quinques

In rare cases, a quinque can also be manufactured from ghouls with a chimera kagune, or multiple kagunes. The most notable benefit of these exotic quinques is the ability to use different combat styles during a confrontation, giving an investigator a wider arsenal to his disposal. Chimera quinque are useful for opposing multiple types of ghouls, though it is unknown if any combination of Rc types is possible or can occur naturally as chimera ghouls are extremely rare and the technical difficulties of fusing two Rc types together means that very few are capable of being used effectively in the field.

Kakuja Quinques

Kakuja quinques are a special type of quinque created from ghouls that have cannibalized and evolved a mutated kagune, becoming a kakuja. It more commonly functions as armor, protecting and enhancing the capabilities of the user by stimulating their body while equipped, but they can also be used to manufacture various weapons. Despite the vast majority of kakuja quinques taking the form of armor, there have been several instances in which kakuja quinques have taken more offensive forms such as blades. Aside from being potent melee weapons, these quinques retain special traits of the original kakuja, such as ranged projectiles, detachment, advanced kagune formation, and remote activation.

Known Quinques

The table below is list of the quinques that appear in the Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul:re animated series and mangas, adapted to fit Dnd 5e. The list is work in progress so many quinques might get changed for some time before being ready to use, please be patient.

Q Bullets

Q bullets are bullets with a melted down kagune coating; however, because the material can only be acquired from ghouls, the coating itself is moderately thin. There is a bullet type for each respective kagune. They are adequate when used against a ghoul whose kagune type adversely corresponds with that of the bullets. While Q bullets are effective in their own right, this effectiveness only extends so far when compared to a quinque.

Statistics

The damage that a Q bullet deal depends on two things: the type of firearm it was shot from and the target it was shot at. If the target is a non-ghoul the bullet will deal double its regular damage (e.g. 1d6 -> 2d6) but if the target is a ghoul the bullet will have different effects based on the interaction between the two RC types. If the bullets type is strong against the kagune type of the target(RC types interaction listed below) this will cause the bullet to deal extra damage equal to half the size of the damage die of the firearm it was shot from (e.g. 1d6 -> 1d6+3) but if the the bullets type is weak against the kagune type of the target this will cause the damage dealt to be lowered by an amount equal to the half size of the damage die of the firearm it was shot from(e.g. 1d6 -> 1d6-3). In case the two RC types are neutral towards each other the Q bullets will deal their regular damage to the target. If, for whatever reason, the damage of the bullets isn't determined by the firearm it was shot from a Q bullet will deal 1d8 to a non-ghoul target and 1d6 to a ghoul target(still following the rules explained above).
