Taimanin Weapons

The Taimanin of Gosha Village use different types of unique weapons, some old and new. All Taimanin begin with the use of a Ninjato and after intense training and ability awakening, move to a personalized weapon of their own choice. Weapons are designed and chosen, with the Ninja Arts they use in mind to enhance their effect or limit dangerous side effects.
