Are you going to include Smiths? People who would have some history behind them and that they are famous smiths that may possibly run sword schools?
We had the topic here, look through the entire topic, we had some cool ideas. If it's possible, it would be nice to have some ideas that we have came up with here. Smile

Also here Choucove posted some history behind several smiths:

You would ask that question to a Nihon-to connoissour!? :lmao:
Big Grin
Ofcourse we will have various smiths, belonging to various schools and traditions of sword smithing, each smith will have different qualities, for example: one smith could be known for his "saijo o waza mono" (highest grade in sharpness).
Not only Japanese swords will be ranked like this, but also other bladed Japanese weapons like the naginata and the yari.

We will also have something similar for other weapons, like bows, etc.

I hope that makes you happy :]
So maybe we could get our modellers working on those Void's weapons for retexture them? Smile
There is a concern about mystic staffs. Have you thought about making some magical stuff like those rocket-launcher-like staffs from Oblivion?

sorry for asking stupid questions. I haven't much time for checking all the things from Akavir. Wink
Ask all the questions you want, even if you think they are stupid Big Grin (your question was not stupid).
I have studied Japanese swords for over ten years now, the more variation we have, the better the mod will be.

And yes, the Void's weapons should be worked on, maybe you should copy the Void's concept art to the Akavir forums, it might be usefull.

Ok, my turn for a stupid question: "rocket-launcher-like staffs from Oblivion" ??? :confused:

We will need something like that... i think Confusedhrug:
"rocket-launcher-like staffs from Oblivion"
Wel you know - the staffs in oblivion work as projectile weapons, not actually fight staffs (which is bad IMHO).

The concept art images I have PMed to Ysne, but you can view the Void's gallery that includes concept art for weapons here:

Ok :goodjob:
Ysne has forwarded the PM to me, but i have not really checked it out yet (so many things to do right now).

I like the mystic staff, it looks a lot like a specific type of yari, as seen here: LINK
