Magnetic Projectile

Magnetic Projectile
Misaka Mikoto (A Certain Magical Index) uses her arm to serve as conductive rails for an arcade coin in order to fire her "Railgun" with via electromagnetism.
Power/Ability to:	Launch metal with magnetic pressure.

The ability to utilize magnetism to launch metal projectiles. Technique of Magnetism Manipulation. Variation of Projectile Attacks.

Also Called

• Railgun Effect

Capabilities

The user can use the pressure of magnetic fields to propel metal as projectiles.

Applications

• Attraction & Repulsion
• Bullet Projection
• If electromagnetism is used, the projectile may also be charged with electricity for an additional explosive impact.

Variations

• Using magnets as conductive rails or coils to accelerate the metal projectile via electric currents and magnetism, effectively creating a Rail-gun or Coil-gun, respectively.
  • The rail-gun creates a very powerful bullet, as it generates high amounts of heat and tremendous velocity, which in turn can cause a very deadly impact.
  • The coil-gun does not have as much firepower as the rail-gun, but does not require conductive rails, which would be less time-consuming in between shots, allowing rapid fire.
• Using the attraction of magnetism, attract one large bundle of scrap metal and slam it against one end of a connector, causing another bundle of scrap metal at the other end to fire off with tremendous velocity and force by using constraint to create acceleration between two objects, creating a Gauss Cannon.

Associations

• Bullet Projection
• Electricity Manipulation
• Electromagnetism Manipulation
• Gravity Projectile
• Magnetic Weaponry
  • Magnetic Artillery
• Magnetism Manipulation
• Projectile Attacks
• Projectile Enhancement

Limitations

• Ammunition available is a very important factor to the technique.
• At incredible heat, magnetism will be destroyed.
• Large energy consumption may be required for firing.
• Speed of projectile causes friction and heat, may cause projectile to melt.
• Magnetism Negation

Train Heartnet (Black Cat) uses the nano-machines in his body to generate static electricity for a very powerful Railgun shot, capable of piercing through and shatter many defenses.

Toki (Code:Breaker) using the law of least constraint fires his signature technique, the Gauss Cannon, a magnetically propelled scrap metal missile of immense destructive capabilities.

The Third Kazekage (Naruto) uses Magnet Release chakra to magnetically launching the Iron Sand Drizzle, a barrage of hardened grains, with a shotgun-effect.

Misaka Worst (Toaru Majutsu no Index) uses her Railgun to fire a magnetic rifle steel nails infused with electricity capable enough to pierce Accelerator arm.
