Kiro: The Lost Ancestral Sword of the Ki–Rin
Descrição
Shinjo’s personal blade, Kiro, was an exquisite dao she carried down with her from the Heavens when she fell. Unicorn oral tradition claims it was forged by her brother but does not mention which one. Kiro was later imbued by Iuchi with cosmic energies in order to connect it to Ningen-dō, the Realm of Morals, and it was said to be among the most splendid of blades.
When the Ujik khan gave Shinjo his sword, she gave him Kiro in exchange as a sign of trust and friendship.
Kiro remained with the Ujik even when most of them became the Moto family; it was passed down through generations of Moto daimyō in recognition of their devotion to Shinjo. Moto Tsume carried it on his ill-fated quest into the Shadowlands, where it was lost. To this day, the Moto family carry the shame of having dropped Shinjo’s blade, and although many attempts have been made to find and recover it, all thus far have failed.
Kiro is a dao of immacu-
late quality.
Additional Properties: Damage +1, Deadliness
+1, Ceremonial, Dura-
ble, Unholy.
Sealed Mahō: Kiro contains the Sinful Whispers mahō (see page 225 of the core
rulebook), which is activated using Survival
instead of Theology. This sealed technique functions in the same
way as nemuranai, found on page 307 of
the core rulebook.
