So I'm posting this up for a friend that's about to leave.

a midnight blue onyx-tipped harness
You see a midnight blue onyx-tipped harness made of fine silk and tied into elaborate knotwork. Designed to be worn on the left hip, the onyx-tipped harness could be easily attached to armor or a belt. Secured by the elaborate knotwork you see a richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard set for a quick draw, and a gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard positioned slightly behind and at a slight angle down.
In the onyx-tipped harness you see a short-bladed folded rolaren wakizashi and a long-bladed folded rolaren katana.

You glance at your wakizashi. Even admiring this fine blade at rest it gives the impression that it is constantly ringing with a low, bell-like resonance. Between the thick blade and hilt is a detailed clover-shaped tsuba, cut through with four illthorn leaves edged in delicate scrimshaw. The tsuka grip is tightly wrapped in a rich swathe of blue-grey leather, bound over with an elaborate mesh wrap of shimmering grey spidersilk threads. The weapon is exceptionally crafted by skilled hands. The wakizashi is polished and graceful. Curiously, written upon it in flowing Erithian script is the name "Tgara". Truly, this weapon was constructed by a master craftsman.

Just tested the scripts and here's a few.

Rotating your wrist, you spin your blade through the air and step easily into a back stance. With perfect control of your muscle, you exhale a long steady breath while extending your other hand with two fingers pointed upward while holding the wakizashi mere inches from your left cheek.

Centering your weight on the balls of your feet, you bring your wakizashi to chest height with the blade tip angled up. With the turn of your wrist you whip the blade into a frenzy of motion. Pushing out with one arm and taking one-step back, you end with the wakizashi's blade horizontal to your ear.

Gripping your wakizashi loosely in the palm of his hand, you rotate your wrist and allow the blade to glide in a gentle arc through the air. As the blade spins, you take an enormous step forward with your right foot. Just as the step is complete, with a resounding stomp, you stand poised with both arms extended, the wakizashi raised high above your head.

You kneel and place your wakizashi on your thighs, bowing in silent reverence
to the blade.

Feeling for imperfections you run your fingers lightly along the wakizashi's blade.


With deliberate poise, you draw the folded rolaren katana from your richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard, bringing it up gripped in both hands into a ready position.

You deftly raise your katana overhead, and then deftly pace around in a circle in slow, measured movements. At the top of each of the quarters, you bow respectfully, followed by a vicious slash through the air.

Moving into a back stance, with your front leg straight while resting your weight upon your back leg, you raise your katana so that it is parallel to your right cheek. Ever so slowly, as you release a steady breath, you move your left hand, with only two fingers raised, across the length of the blade and hold the position with perfect poise.

Slipping into a back stance, you hold your katana with both hands at an angle above you're left shoulder. With precision-perfect grace you move the blade into a gentle arc through the air while taking an enormous step forward and end the move with the blade resting by scant inches above your right shoulder.

You raise your katana overhead and then launch a vicious slash downward, pulling the blade back up, then slash in the other direction.

With a fluid movement, you slide your katana into the richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard with a barely audible *snick!*


Might have more those are just the ones I found with my script checker.

Harness scripts

You tug a bit on your richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard, pulling it forward until you're comfortable with its position.

You push your gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard back a little, adjusting your onyx-tipped harness in the process.

You run your fingers along the onyx-tipped harness, enjoying the texture of your richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard and gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard beneath your fingers.

Your fingers drum your richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard idly as you wait for something to happen.

You pause for a moment to tilt your richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard back and forth, watching the light play off it.

You adjust the onyx-tipped harness, moving your richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard and gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard until they sit just right.

With a nearly imperceptible movement, you neatly draw your folded rolaren wakizashi from the gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard and bring it to a ready position.

With a flick of the wrist, you spin your wakizashi around and smoothly slide it into the smaller gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard.

With a tug of the cord, you unknot the harness and carefully collect the richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard and gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard in your hand.

You carefully thread the harness up, taking time to test cord length to ensure just the right position and lay of the richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard and gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard against your body. With a snug jerk you finish the last knot, holding your onyx-tipped harness firm.


Again, might be more but that's what the script check came up with.

Scabbard doesn't take 2 lbs. off of the mini-katana when sheathed.

Negative infinity silver. Sorry :(
