D-rank
Name: /
Type Of Weapon: Spear (Yari) (Hand spear)
Rank: C
Elemental Alignment: /
Ability/Function: /
Close/Long Range: Medium-short
Appearance:Yari were characterized by a straight blade that could be anywhere from several centimeters, to 3 feet or more in length. The blades were made of the same steel (tamahagane) that traditional Japanese swords and arrow heads were forged with, and were very durable. Throughout history many variations of the straight yari blade were produced, often with protrusions on a central blade. Yari blades (points) often had an extremely long tang (nakago); typically the nagako would be longer than the sharpened portion of the blade. The nakago protruded into a re-enforced hollow portion of the handle (tachiuchi or tachiuke) resulting in a very stiff shaft making it nearly impossible for the blade to fall or break off. Also a carrying strap is being purchased to be worn at the back. The spear is a total of 5 feet in length, of which the blade is two feet, and the shaft is 3 feet.
History: The spear was used by his mother during her intense training sessions with him. After Years of her life threatening training sessions, he himself was instructed on the way to use a weapon like that.
