Legend
As the last snow fell to the ground, our warrior took a deep breath. His meditation had once again been filled with dark thoughts and he hadn't been able to find peace… yet. He released a long sigh and watched the steam escape from his body in contact with the cold. As the village woke up, he too would get to work. He hadn't always been welcomed, let alone considered a samurai. But he had known to prove his worth with time and devotion. Slowly unfolding his legs from his sides, he took the Japanese katana that he had placed in front of him and put it back in its sheath. It was with astonishment that he had learned on his arrival that the word Samurai means "one who serves" and although he had long been their prisoner of war, living among such different people had taught him more than through his twenty years in service to the king. Treated at first as an inconvenient guest, however, he had never received so much hatred and contempt as in his former life. His katana grew heavier for a breath… His old life. The warrior smiled slightly and shrugged as if to convince himself that he was no longer attached to that past. He was now a Samurai, devoted to the perfection of his art and perhaps, one day, he would even find his peace.
Description
The katana is a traditional Japanese sword widely associated with feudal Japan and the samurai caste. It is a ceremonial weapon and a work of art representing the samurai's status and prestige. It was often used in duels or to complement the warrior weaponry in warfare. This latex weapon will be the centerpiece of any Japanese-inspired character in LARP and will command respect, may it be for a proud daimyo, a shogun, a ronin, a sword saint, a ninja, or an onna-musha.
