Sorcerer… Cyborg???

Kothar held up the piece of metal to the deep orange that emanated from the forge next to him, and turned it all over. The piece of metal was perfectly smooth, and the edges had just the slightest curve to them.

It was the perfect beginning to the forging process, and Kothar tossed the piece of Titanite into the tub of oil set to one side, an enormous rush of smoke filling the air, and a loud hissing sound sounding out as the hot metal contacted the cool oil.

Without missing a beat, Kothar picked up the neck ingot, heating it to the required temperature with his Plasma Blade, and then beginning the hammering process, once again, a loud clanging filled the cavern.

The forging process continued on for days, Kothar would rest for a few hours, wake and then would pick up the hammer again, and would begin beating the Titanite into shape.

Gradually, each piece of the armor was taking shape. The oblong, angled plates that would layer over each other and would protect Kothar's stomach, the curved planets that would sit at the sides of Kothar's abdominal region, which would afford Kothar protection as well as flexibility.

With those pieces, the frontal portion of the torso was completed, and then Kothar moved on to the back of the armor, this time, he formed a pentagonal plate, however, this one did not have the gentle curve the chest piece did, rather, it curved strangely, forming a wavy line if one looked at it along its length, this was so that Kothar's movement would be impeded as little as possible, allowing his shoulder blades to freely rotate under the armor. 

Another set of oblong, angled plates were formed, which would protect Kothar's lower back, all slotting together, allowing Kothar full motion, bending forward and backward.

As for the shoulders, Kothar formed two larger, almost spherical pieces, which would sit over the shoulders, and allow Kothar to be protected. They also had a small notch at their abc, which would allow for the air from the turbine to reach the arms.

Kothar continued, forming the curved pieces that would protect his upper arms, and upper legs; these pieces were a little more complex, as Kothar needed to form the channels that would allow the air to flow from the unit at his back, down to his forearms and lower legs.

After completing these, he formed the large plates that would protect his hips and pelvis, these were also curved, and would slot into the back and rotate, allowing Kothar to run, jump, sidestep, and all the other motions that were key in combat.

Soon enough, all of the less complex pieces of the armor were formed, all of them quite large plates, some of them with clear channels that the air would flow through installed.

Now, Kothar needed to make the more delicate pieces of the armor, firstly, he took an ingot of Titanite, and shaping his Plasma Blade to be razor thin, he started carving thin slices out of it, to form the fan that would draw in the air from outside the armor and then send it all throughout Kothar's armor.

Next, he drew out an ingot, forming the tiny coils of wire that would spread out all over the armor, within the more delicate inner potion, harvesting the electricity from his Lightning Aura to power the motor within the back unit.

Kothar formed the outer housing for the turbine, this portion of the armor would sit over the upper back plate, slotting in with the shoulders of the armor as well as the back, only adding about ten centimeters to the circumference of the upper portion of the armor, still keeping it low profile.

The motor would also be installed in the same housing, utilizing a large magnet that would be spun using the field generated by the electricity that would be picked up by the countless coils all over the armor.

The entire turbine and motor unit was light, thanks to the Titanite's properties, but was durable and strong enough that it wouldn't be susceptible to damage in battle, even in close proximity to extreme heat, cold, moisture, electricity or impacts.

Additionally, the entire unit could be removed, and the armor used only as battle armor, if Kothar chose to do so, but it was unlikely he would do so, since the added utility provided by being able to fly was incomparable.

With the turbine and motor complete, Kothar started on the lowe leg and forearm portions of the armor, the openings for the air would be on the inner forearm, and on either side of the lower leg, near Kothar's calf muscle.

These portions didn't take too long, as Kothar only had to form the channels that the air would flow down, apart from that the pieces weren't too complex.

But then, Kothar started on the more delicate. Smaller, armor pieces, to create these, he cut the ingots into smaller chunks, and would create the small, angled, pieces that protect his fingers, allowing him to fully articulate them and move his wrists freely, preserving his ability to use his sword.

The boots of the armor were forged with two large pieces, one covering the upper foot, and another forming the base, ridged and pointed to allow his feet to grip the ground.

The ankle portion was formed of thin rings, allowing for the same articulations at the wrists.

Of course, when creating these more delicate pieces, as well as the wiring, smaller portions of the motor, Kothar made small errors that would result in him having to start the piece over from the beginning, which extended the amount of time he had been creating the armor for.

Once all the plates that would form the armor had been completed, and the delicate inner wiring, turbine, and motor portions were all finished, Kothar was covered in soot, grime, splashes of grease, and filings of Titanite.

But now, Kothar could start on the final portion of the armor, the helmet.
