Fukien's weapon

Post by bluemask »

Looks like two short swords? Knives? Maybe Kahn's weapon is the same (since both are on the exorcism path) Hmm...

They always looked like rulers to me. And they are called "Punishment." With me it always brought to mind the image of nuns who would smack you over the hand with rulers as a form of discipline.

I can't stop laughing imagining that. That's just sooo... factual! :P Punishment really isn't much of a physical hint, but judging by the sound, it sounds like drumsticks?

Well Fukien's weapon is called "punishment" so I think they're little sticks that get used for disciplining temple followers who step out of line, or perhaps people who seek religious punishment to help cleanse their bodies and souls and stuff like that. Priests in RPGs don't normally use sharp weapons because they don't like mutilating or cutting their enemies, because priests are all about healing and spiritual guidance rather than hacking and slashing.

By the way, Fukien's profile page on this website is a bit crap, it just mentions his use of the Resurrection rune. How about his role in helping Tir and friends find a way to fight Neclord, and telling them about their star signs and fulfilling their destinies, since he's one of the few characters in the entire series who seems to have any knowledge of the stars of destiny.

Are you sure? Then what about Gantetsu who uses a staff and he talks about his strength? :mrgreen:

Exactly - a STAFF which is a blunt weapon, NOT intended for slashing throats and hacking limbs off. Gantetsu talks about being strong, he doesn't say anything about slicing people to bits. Not particularly "sharp" yourself, are ya Sasarai? :wink:
