Each set comes with a matching scripted scabbard. The rolaren pair both have Tgara/Isalla scripts, while the eahnor ones are plain. Scripts will follow in a second post for those interested.

Katanas and wakizashis are standard enchant for their metal, HCW katana and vanilla short sword.

a brilliant red eahnor katana, a gold-brushed slender eahnor wakizashi, and a gilt-accented red mahogany scabbard

>l red katana
Red as a radiant dawn's sunrise, this eahnor katana is intricately engraved in stylistic flame-like arcs along its sharply swept blade. The hilt is wrapped in a deep purple and gold silk with a token of an ovoid-cut dream agate on an eburnean bezel caught within. A long braided cord tassel trails from the pommel with a pair of tufted golden feathers tied off at the end. An inscription is etched above the crossguard.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read red katana
In the Common language, it reads:
Dawn's Fire

>l slender waki
The subtle curvature of this eahnor wakizashi is mimicked in the bold golden brushstrokes along the length of the brilliant red blade. The sweeping aurulent designs slowly take form as well-defined feathers, culminating at the dark bronze crossguard forged in the shape of furled wings. The rich linden hilt is wrapped in dark aubergine silk intertwined with a single length of ivory linen that hangs freely and knots at the end around a butterfly of white jade.

>look at scabbard
Polished and lacquered to a brilliantly smooth finish, the red hue of the mahogany surface is lustrous. A thin ring of gold is fixed beneath the throat and wrapped on either side in braided violet cords that would secure onto a belt. Golden feathers are painted in minute detail along the length of the scabbard, each one accented with a miniature teardrop of drought agate, curling about as if falling in a slow descent.

Both scabbards:
>touch scabbard
You trace the details of your red mahogany scabbard with your fingertips.

>nudge scabbard
You rest a hand on the locket of your red mahogany scabbard, casually loosening the sheathed red eahnor katana with a subtle nudge.

>pull scabbard
With a deliberate slowness, you draw the red eahnor katana from your red mahogany scabbard.

>push scab
You grasp your red mahogany scabbard by the locket with your opposite hand, adjusting its position slightly.
With practiced ease, you draw the blade of your red eahnor katana back across the scabbard's opening before smoothly sheathing it.

Rolaren Katana:
>rub katana
You reverently lay your katana across both palms and bow to it. You weigh it within your hands for a moment then grasp it with one hand and sight down its length, carefully assessing it. Satisfied, you nod and return it to your side.

>turn katana
Slipping into a back stance, you hold your katana with both hands at an angle above your 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.

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

>raise katana
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.

>bow katana
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.

Rolaren Wakizashi:
>rub wakizashi
Feeling for imperfections you run your fingers lightly along the wakizashi's blade.

>turn wakizashi
Gripping your wakizashi loosely in the palm of her 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.

>wave wakizashi
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.

>raise wakizashi
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.

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

Stats are pretty cut and dry, as these were designed more for the aesthetic appeal. The eahnor and rolaren sets are +18 and +20 respectively, HCW katana and standard short sword.

Bids have been noted!

dear lord, the erithi I used to play would weep at tgara going for so low.

I'd easily pay twice that amount if I hadn't converted Haohmaru to Monk. :/
